Why did Zilla Fatu sign with NXT and what does it mean for the championship picture?
It's Uncle Bully talking Zilla Vatu. He put his name on the dotted line tonight, and I'll let you know what I thought about it right here on the After Dark podcast. This is the Busted Open Podcast. It's official. Xillafot II has signed the contract? Зилафа ту із нау. A member of NXT. Wow! This was a big night! Frazilla and NXT and already Plugs himself in! To the big championship match at Heatwave. It's now a four-way. Zilla, Grayson, Cruz, and Tony D. For the NXT Men Championship. Zillafot two. I'm not sure. If I would have put a microphone in his hand tonight. I'm not gonna tell you my reason why though. Because I want to get your honest feedback. I'm just not sure tonight was the night to put the microphone in his hand.
Nevertheless, Zillafatu is going to be an incredible addition to NXT, in my eyes, in my opinion. I don't know if they caught this on TV. I know the WWE Twitter machine sent it out. We saw Zilla. Go over and acknowledge Booker T. High five, a hug. Because Booker is the guy. Booker is the legend. Booker is the two time Hall of Famer. I'm blowing a lot of smoke up Booker's ass tonight, by the way. Who broke Zillafatu in, who trained Vil Zillafatu, who knows Zilla's strengths and he knows his weaknesses. He's the guy that opened his doors to Zilla Fatu. He's the guy that threw Zilla Fatu out his front doors. And then welcomed him back in again. Nice little sign of respect by Zilla and Booker. Zill is in. Puts himself in that four way.
For me To be signing with the number one wrestling company in this world. And to start here at NXT.
MAY! I never thought I will be here. But I'm here now though!
How will Zilla’s addition create a four‑way NXT Men’s Championship match at Heatwave?
My goal is to show you guys I'm not just another nympho baby. That I'm here to let my talent speak for
itself. What a debut it would be for him if he wins the four way at heat wave. Holy shnikes would that get people talkin'? I could make an incredible case. For Cruz Montana. I could pitch my case to creative or to the pro wrestling jury for Cruz Montana. But then right behind that I could pitch it for Zilliphar 2 also. I can give you all of the good reasons for Cruise, but I can give you one great reason for Xillaphar 2. It's called shock and awe. And with everything that's going on with the bloodline. On raw. And possibly carrying over into SmackDown. Xillaphot 2 showing up. As a member of that family. And winning the NXT men's championship right off the bat will get everybody talking. I'm not saying that's what's gonna happen.
I'm not saying that I want to see that happen. But you know Uncle Bully is a big fan of shock and awe and grabbing wrestling fans by the throat and never letting go. Capture them. Take them while they're hot. Zilla. Old almost gave me old school rock vibes tonight. With the silk shirt unbuttoned. The glasses. Kinda look like Rocky's uh late eighty late nineties, early two thousands attitude era, WWE. If you're gonna follow in somebody's footsteps Rock's not a bad one. Speaking of following in footsteps, obviously Zilifatu, the son of Umaga. Eki Fatu, Eddie Fattu. And we heard some Umaga chants tonight from the crowd, which I absolutely loved. Little sign of respect. I think it's gonna work out. I hope it works out.
Tony D. Cruise Montana Zillaphar too. And listen, I'm throwing Grayson in there. Because Grayson on the stick? Spr is i he's better than them all. Racing on the stick is money. I loved That backstage confrontation that WWE posted between uh Grayson and CM Punk. CM Punk did a live event for NXT this past weekend. And you wanna talk about taking your opportunity, taking the bull by the horns? Grayson Waller went right up the punk and started talking shit to his face. And then he walked away. Punk had that awkward smile on his face. So for those of you who don't think Grayson belongs
What role does Booker T play in mentoring Zilla and why is his endorsement important?
I ask you to reconsider. I think this will be an exciting four-way match. I'm not a big fan of four ways. And I'm only a big fan of three ways when it makes absolute sense. I come from the company that invented the three-way dance. It's gotta make sense. I know these days we do it for Ratings and shock value and promotable main event like
