WWE Hall of Famer and Performance Center trainer Shawn Michaels has offered some high praise to one WWE NXT UK star, and that’s a trainee of Finn Balor, former OTT Champion Jordan Devlin.
HBK dished out this encouraging comments while in attendance on Friday for the launch of the new Performance Center in the United Kingdom that was unveiled alongside Triple H, Robbie Brookside, Matt Bloom, Finn Balor, Charlotte Flair, and the NXT UK roster.
During a media scrum, Michaels talked about what he thought about Devlin.
“One guy who I didn’t know, or hadn’t seen was Jordan Devlin. He was good when he came in, but now he is really starting to feel it. [Jordan] is oozing confidence, and I hate to pinpoint one person, but I have seen him grow exponentially. He is a real talented kid, and his ceiling is pretty darn high.” Michaels said.
Devlin responded to this praise by writing on his official Twitter account, “No higher praise possible. About time.”
