Top NXT Star Wants To Be NXT Champion

Bronson Reed may have lost the NXT North American Championship, but he is now aiming higher.

Speaking with Sports Illustrated, Reed said that he sees himself as a main event talent in NXT. Furthermore, he said the NXT Championship is a goal of his. He said:

“I see myself as a main-event-caliber talent for NXT, and that world title is definitely a goal of mine, so proving myself against Cole is very important. We’ve bumped shoulders backstage before, and I’d always wondered what it would be like to share the ring with him. Now it’s time for people to see it.”

“I’m excited to work my way up that ladder into the title picture. That begins with the match against Cole. I’ve always had to work for every opportunity I’ve been given. I’ve started from the bottom rung, from the independents in Japan and going all the way to NXT, and working my way up here.”

Bronson Reed recently lost his North American title to Isaiah ‘Swerve’ Scott. He will face former NXT Champion Adam Cole on tonight’s episode of NXT.
