WWE NXT’s Mason Rook made a quick impression on the developmental brand and named a top star he would like to step into the ring with.
The debut of the English star took place in April and already was pinned by NXT Champion Grayson Waller. As he is progressing quickly, it won’t be long before he moves to the main roster where he would like to face GUNTER, whose wrestling style he resonates with.
“There are a few (I’d like to meet on the main roster). I’d say GUNTER, right now. To me, he’s the standard of wrestling,” Rook began as he spoke “Destroyed gap“I feel he was India’s spy. Wherever he went, he set the standard. And coming from Europe as well, I feel like we have the same physical style. Obviously, he has now earned this designation as a career finisher. He’s retired as one of the best to ever do it, so to be able to test myself against Gunter this early, I think it would do wonders for my career here in WWE.”
Rook has already impressed many in the professional wrestling business Wrestling legend John Cena is a big fanrecognizing his talent even before moving to WWE. Former WWE Champion Jinder Mahalhowever, believes that Rook has the “it” factor and also said that his character is relatable.
While it’s a move to the main roster for him, the 29-year-old star needs to focus on winning some silverware in NXT, and his first chance will be on next week’s show where he faces Waller for the NXT Championship.
