VIDEO: Long Awaited Surprise Return Takes Place On NXT
Welcome back. Every now and then you see someone put on the shelf for one reason or another. Wrestlers are going to have issues at some point in their career and it is going to cause them to need some time away from the ring. One of the most common is a wrestler getting injured, as it could happen to any wrestler at any time. Thankfully that is often followed by a return, which took place this week.
Ridge Holland returned to NXT television this week, marking his first appearance since October 2020. Holland interrupted the opening tag team match between Oney Lorcan/Pete Dunne vs. Timothy Thatcher/Tommaso Ciampa, helping Lorcan and Dunne win. Following the match, Holland joined Dunne and Lorcan in attacking Ciampa and Thatcher. Holland had been on the shelf for nine months due to a leg injury suffered when Lorcan dove on him during a brawl.
Holland is going to be a player. Check out his return plus what he did before the injury:

Opinion: This has me interested as Holland is the kind of person who could make a big difference in a hurry. He is a pure power guy and someone NXT looked prepared to pus hard. The injury was horrible and hopefully it is little more than a fluke accident. NXT could use some fresh blood on the card and Holland may very well be it. As long as he can stay healthy, this could get rather interesting in a hurry.
What do you think of the move? How will Holland do in NXT? Let us know in the comments below.
