NXT Superstar Makes Smackdown Live Debut

At long last, "the Perfect 10" has made his WWE main roster debut.

The 36-year old Canadian wrestler made his Smackdown Live debut Tuesday night, defeating Curt Hawkins in his first appearance. Dillinger got a huge ovation from the Orlando crowd.

Dillinger hasn't been completely shut out of the main roster — he made a surprise appearance as the #10 entrant in this year's Royal Rumble. Before the Royal Rumble, Dillinger is perhaps best remembered on main roster TV for getting superkicked by Shawn Michaels as "Stan" in a backstage segment. He also worked as an enhancement talent against Super Crazy, Ricky Ortiz, Finlay, The Hurricane and Rosey.

Dillinger was first signed by WWE in 2006, and released in 2009. He re-signed in 2013 and has performed on the NXT brand since.
