Pretty Deadly Make WWE NXT Debut With New Names
Pretty Deadly have new names in WWE NXT
Apr 6, 2022
Former NXT UK Tag Team Champions made their NXT debut on Tuesday's episode from the WWE Performance Center.
A masked duo has been terrorising The Creed Brothers in recent weeks - attacking them in the NXT parking lot and trashing the Diamond Mine locker room - and the masked men attacked Brutus and Julius following their win over Imperium on Tuesday.
While The Creed Brothers celebrated their win, the duo attacked them from behind with steel chairs. Once the Diamond Mine members were down, the two men removed their masks, revealing themselves to be Pretty Deadly.
The tag team have been given new names to coincide with their NXT debut. Lewis Howley is now known as Elton Prince while Sam Stoker will go by Kit Wilson.
After first teaming together in 2015 as Greased Lightning, Pretty Deadly became a regular tag team from late 2017.
They were NXT UK Tag Team Champions for 287 days in 2021, holding the gold from February until December when they dropped the titles to Moustache Mountain.
