Derek Bateman’s worked in WWE before. USA Guy might have even had a match or two in Florida. But this EC3 fella is new to NXT, so his appearance during their Mar. 9 live event in Dade City is news.

In addition to EC3’s win, sounds like Dade City got a heck of a show - including a barnburner of a Pete Dunne/Oney Lorcan United Kingdom title match and an International Women’s Day main event which saw Candice LeRae, Kairi Sane and Jessie defeat Shayna Baszler, Reina Gonzalez and Vanessa Borne.
Now if only we knew when EC3 will be on TV and what he’ll be doing when he gets there (WARNING: those links might have SPOILERS).
Or what those initials stand for...
