Popular Star Confirms Joining WWE Main Roster
One wrestling star who has taken fans by storm in recent weeks has confirmed they’re bypassing NXT and going straight to the WWE main roster.
At Money In The Bank, R-Truth shocked the world when he made his WWE return just days after he confirmed that his contract in the company was coming to an end. Truth took out John Cena to a rapturous reception in the main event as John Cena and Logan Paul lost a tag team match to Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso.
But one star rivalled Truth for the biggest reaction of the weekend, and it’s one that very few people could have seen coming.
AAA star Mr. Iguana stole the show at Worlds Collide earlier in the day as a whole new audience was introduced to his wacky style and iguana puppet. Such was the response to the Mexican star, WWE rushed to have him make an appearance in the crowd at Money In The Bank as well. And it seems Mr. Iguana is now set for big things in the company.
Mr. Iguana Going Straight To WWE
Speaking to Línea Directa TV, Mr. Iguana claimed that he’s already been told that he’ll be going straight to WWE’s main roster and won’t be spending any time in NXT and it’s in no small part to the success of his merchandise:
I’m there effectively. Like literally I was in the Performance Center yesterday and they told me, you’re not going through NXT — you’re heading straight to the main roster. I was literally taking pictures with Shawn Michaels and they told me they need you here because your shirt is the top seller in WWE, and you’re also the fastest-rising star when it comes to action figures and trading cards.
Being in WWE is the dream of every child and I will have all the time in the world for my city because thanks to them and thanks to being culichi, I would not be where I am today.
