WWE star Kale Dixon has taken a shot at the NXT Men’s Breakout Tournament which is due to start on December 12, 2023.
On the December 5 episode of NXT, the participants in the men’s tournament were revealed – you can see the video package below.
This marks the fourth time the NXT Breakout Tournament has taken place having started back in 2019 with Jordan Myles being the victor.
2020 wouldn’t have a tournament, with it returning in 2021 and seeing Carmelo Hayes being victorious.
2022 would introduce the NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament with Roxanne Perez winning that edition.
This year, we will have two tournaments, with Lola Vice having recently won the NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament and the men’s edition starting next week.
As previously reported, the line up for the men’s tournament is Riley Osborne, Keanu Carver, Tavion Heights, Dion Lennox, Luca Crusifino, Myles Borne, Trey Bearhill and Oba Femi.
Trey Bearhill and Riley Osborne have previously appeared on NXT Level Up with Dion Lennox and Keanu Carver making their television debut in the tournament.
A fan noticed that Kale Dixon wasn’t in the tournament, asking where he was on Twitter.
This caused Dixon to reply with a rather pointed statement of his own, reading:
“I don’t need to be apart of some tournament of “newbies” to put the Dixon name on the map.
“I’ll just make my own map and everyone will be trying to hop on Dixon Highway to greatness. Appreciate the love tho😎”
Dixon has previously been compared to Randy Orton by Bron Breakker based on the “way he moves and talks and his swag”.
He made his NXT debut at a house show in November 2022 when he faced Tank Ledger having joined WWE in August of that year.
