Mr. Iguana Says He Was Told He Wouldn't Go Through NXT And Is Headed Straight To The Main Roster

Mr. Iguana is marked for success in WWE.

Mr. Iguana had a standout performance at WWE x AAA Worlds Collide to the point that WWE aired a video package hyping him and La Yesca on WWE Raw. He was also in attendance for WWE NXT.

Speaking to Línea Directa TV, Mr. Iguana was asked what it would take to be in the same league as John Cena.

"Tell them nothing because I'm already here. I am literally here. Yesterday, I was at the NXT Performance Center in Orlando, and I was told, “You're not coming through here, you're going to the main roster.” I posted a picture yesterday with Shawn Michaels, and he said we need you here because you're the best-selling t-shirt this week and the fastest rising star on the cards, and all since Saturday. Since Saturday, I feel like the adrenaline hasn't stopped. It's every kid's dream to be in WWE. I am busy currently, but for my hometown, I will have all the time in the world because thanks to them, to be culichi (from Culiacan), and to be from Sinaloa, I would not be where I am now."

It is unknown when Mr. Iguana will make his WWE main roster debut.
