Brandi Lauren Receives New Name In NXT
Brandi Lauren will have a new name in NXT.
Mike Johnson at PWInsider reports Lauren will go by Skyler Storey in NXT. Lauren was part of the summer signings when WWE purchased EVOLVE. She was announced as part of the October WWE Performance Center recruiting class.
Lauren has made brief appearances on WWE television in recent months including in Raw Underground segments, as one of the hot tub girls who celebrated Damian Priest’s NXT North American Title victory, and in the WWE NXT Women’s Title #1 Contendership Battle Royal in September.
WWE filed to trademark the name “Skyler Story” on November 2. It is unclear as to why there are differences in the last name between the filing and the reported new name.
