WWE’s Next In Line (NIL) program has truly scouted a gem in Peyton Prussin, who’s now gearing up to shake up the “NXT” universe as Kendal Grey. Since signing with WWE in January last year, Prussin has been more than just a blip on the wrestling radar—she’s an impending storm!
Her presence was first hinted at when savvy fans noticed her cameo among the Chase U crowd, with her social media handles mysteriously morphing into “Kendal Grey.” This past Friday, she set X (the artist formerly known as Twitter) abuzz with a teaser post showcasing her NAIA wrestling highlights. “The ‘NXT’ women’s locker room better watch out… I’m coming for it all…”, her post declared, sending ripples through the wrestling community.
Though Kendal Grey has graced the “NXT LVL Up” and live events, her grand entrance to “NXT” remains eagerly awaited. As the first female wrestler from the NAIA in WWE’s NIL and now a full-timer, she’s poised to follow in the footsteps of giants like North American Champion Oba Femi, who also rose through the NIL ranks.
With the Break Out Tournament on the horizon, this summer or fall could very well mark the rise of Kendal Grey as a force to be reckoned with in WWE. So, strap in, folks—NXT is about to get a whole lot more exciting with Kendal Grey in the mix!
