AJ Francis Reacts To Surprise WWE NXT Return
AJ Francis made a surprise appearance at this week's episode of WWE NXT, and reacted hilariously to it.
Francis joined KC Navarro in ambushing Mike Santana this week on NXT, in a measure of revenge after Santana attacked the pair on TNA iMPACT. In the NXT match, Francis and Navarro cost Santana a shot at the TNA World Championship and helped Trick Williams retain his title.

The moment came as a surprise to fans watching. For Francis, it was his first time on WWE-branded TV since 2023. It was also his first NXT appearance since 2021.
In a post on X, Francis shared the iconic meme of Idris Elba's Stringer Bell from The Wire, telling fans that he was 'back up.'
'I want you to put the word out there that we back up. You understand me? We back up,' Bell said in the Season 1, Episode 13 titled 'Sentencing.'
The return was Francis' first appearance in NXT since he was under WWE contract as Top Dolla, part of the Hit Row stable. It's currently unclear whether or not Francis will appear in any future WWE content. However, the fact that TNA and WWE are now connected seems to suggest it's much more likely.

Booker T believes WWE could go all in with R-Truth (Ron Killings) in the coming months. On the latest episode of The Hall of Fame Podcast, NXT commentator Booker T spoke about WWE bringing back R-Truth, who is now going by the name Ron Killings. Booker predicts the company could make a big move by making him the World Heavyweight Champion. Advertisement 'You know what I see? I see Ron Killings winning the World Heavyweight Championship,' Booker T said. 'How crazy would that be? You know what? It would shake up the whole world. It'll be the biggest thing since, you know, perhaps putting the title on Mick Foley, WCW, that night, you know, when everybody changed the channels to watch Mick Foley win… It could be unbelievable.' [H/T: There is a mystery spot in next week's Men's King of the Ring match on RAW. While WWE could put Truth in that spot, it's probably not the most likely choice.

WWE Hall Of Famer Believes Evolution 2 Should Be A Two-Night Event
This past Monday Night on Raw, WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella made her return to WWE. During her promo, she put over the return of the All Women's Premium Live Event, Evolution. This will be the second edition of the PLE. A WWE Hall of Famer recently mentioned that he believes that the Evolution 2 Premium Live Event should be a two-night event, and for good reason. Advertisement The above-mentioned WWE Hall of Famer is none other than Booker T. During the latest episode of his Hall of Fame podcast, he shared that since the women's rosters on Raw, SmackDown, and NXT are stacked, it makes perfect sense for the event to take place for two nights. 'It might have to be a two-night event because we got that much talent, the roster's stacked. I mean, it's got to be at least 20 matches,' Booker T said. 'I'm loving it, you know. I mean, like you said, we've been asking for this for a long time. I think the ladies deserve this.' [H/T He also mentioned that having an all-women's Premium Live Event does not mean that the guys are not as important. He sees this as an opportunity for WWE to show how strong it's women's division is. Advertisement 'I don't think it's taken away from the shine from the guys to let the ladies go out there and have that one night only,' he stated. 'I think it's only fitting for the talent that we have on that roster, just to show how big the women's division really is, from a star power perspective, as far as you know, how they could go out there and draw the house just like everybody else… It's not a contest between Raw and SmackDown, it's a contest between the men and women.'
