– WWE NXT star Adrian Neville spoke with The Sun in the UK earlier this month. Below are the highlights:
His NXT Takeover: R Evolution match with Sami Zayn:
“At the end of the match, when it was all said and done, I did tear up and was a little overwhelmed by the emotion. It was electric at Full Sail [University]. It was certainly — if not our best — definitely up there as one of the best performances we’ve ever had together.”
Pat Patterson being at the event:
“Pat wasn’t scheduled to come out at all, he happened to be backstage. He comes along occasionally to NXT and lends his advice to some of the younger guys. Apparently, watching the match, Pat wasn’t meant to come out but he just foxed his way through — he said he was going to jump the railings, no matter what Triple H said! He just shook my hand and congratulated me and told me he’d enjoyed the match which coming from someone like Pat is huge. It was surreal. Someone like Pat giving you that nod, it is unbelievable.”
