Lexis King (Brian Pillman Jr.) To Debut At NXT Halloween Havoc 2023 Night 1
Lexis King’s journey begins at NXT Halloween Havoc 2023.
Lexis King (formerly Brian Pillman Jr.) was featured in another vignette on the October 17 episode of WWE NXT. This time, he spoke about how WWE Legends would tell him stories about his father, “Flyin'” Brian Pillman, claiming that he would lie to them and say that he also loved his father. However, at the age of four when he lost his dad, he had no idea what love was.
King then went on to say that he would be debuting at NXT Halloween Havoc and it would be the start of his journey which would go on to make the name Lexis King mean more than Brian Pillman.

Lexis King was formerly a member of the AEW roster.
