New NXT Guy

[TWJC: The Beginning]

His name is Ryan Drago in that video, I think he's been repackaged as Simon Gotch. I've known him since he was working rinky shows on the indies. He's always had the ability, now his character is there too. If you want to see some cool shit, the 3' mark he starts doing neat chain wrestling.

How do you bring him in? Do you bring him in? Personally, Gotch vs Cesaro and Gotch vs Bryan (who helped train him) is what I want to see.

Not meaning this as a knock on him personally but this is pretty much the Matt Classic Gimmick Colt Cabana has been doing since WSX just replacing the mask and trunks with a singlet.

saw him in the opening match at an NXT liveevent about a month ago, and he really stood out. i didnt know of his history, but it makes sense that he was trained by Bryan.

He was trained by Daniel Bryan and Harley Race. He's been doing this a while. Seeing him on the indies, he's very good at doing everything in character.

JDavis328, I think it's his own spin. Lots of people have done the "gentleman" gimmick but this is his own spin. I'm obviously a little bias since I've met the guy in person and had conversations with him though.
