Alexander shares that his hopes for the NXT run were high.
Towards the backend of Cedric Alexander's time in WWE, he was moved from the main roster to NXT. He was asked about that period of his run during a Hurt Business reunion panel (via Going Ringside).
Alexander stated that there was a bit of relief when he got word that he'd be heading to NXT.
“My initial reaction moving to NXT was a bit of relief, because it was somewhere new. I hadn’t really spent much time in NXT when I first signed. So, I looked at it as an opportunity to try and spread my wings more and see if I can get more out of my opportunities there and I went there, didn’t work out but, going in, I had high hopes. It was up there.”
Along the way, he formed an on-screen partnership with Je'Von Evans. Alexander said he loved teaming with Evans.
“Oh! I loved teaming with Je’Von (Evans). Je’Von’s great. I actually trained with him a little bit right before he signed so… he’s a great kid.”
Present day, Alexander is back on the independent scene, and he's made his TNA debut during which he confronted Mustafa Ali.
