Ezekiel On Skipping NXT And Going Straight To The WWE Main Roster

The night after WrestleMania 38 fans saw the arrival of a new character when Ezekiel debuted. Since then Ezekiel has been featured frequently on WWE programming in a feud with Kevin Owens who has been trying to convince the world that he’s actually Elias.

The debut of Ezekiel came out of nowhere, and he recently spoke to KTAL News about the trajectory of his WWE career so far.

“I’m very blessed I was able to skip the whole NXT process and get right to the main roster,” said Ezekiel. I think I’m growing leaps and bounds way more than I would anywhere else. I’m getting to mix it up with the top talent in the world on ‘Monday Night RAW’ every week. Sometimes ‘SmackDown.’ So that’s definitely where I want to be.”

Ezekiel also talked about potential dream opponents that he would love to step in the ring with such as Elias and WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels.

“Um, there’s a couple. I’d love to go one-on-one with my brother. I think that would just be a dream match. Me and him at WrestleMania in front of the world, that would be incredible. On top of that though, I got to say, Shawn Michaels. Michaels was always my favorite wrestler. The Heartbreak Kid. So that is a dream match for sure.”
