Who's Fergal Devitt?
 
WWE.com is mentioning him as the hottest "free agent" today, now being signed for NXT.

They're making him sound like he's this big name on the independents (something in itself I never really saw WWE do before), but honestly never heard of him before. Is he really a big deal on the indies or something?

I didn't realize his real name was Fergal. I didn't think the nxt name generator could be so cruel.

he's more commonly known as Prince Devitt.

Vastardikai 07-28-2014 10:51 AM

I just hope they let him keep the crazy body paint, and just let him be a generic monster of some sort.

Fergal is actually his real name, according to wikipedia.

i cant link it on my work computer.. but youtube a match between devitt and PAC. it was what got PAC (aka Neville) noticed by the WWE. Absolutely great match. Devitt is another big signing that hopefully amounts to big things

Hanso Amore 07-28-2014 11:53 AM

Devitt is great

Good signing

Sixx 07-28-2014 12:48 PM

Bane looks dumb with no pants.

When Gotham is in shambles

Then and only then will I wear pants

Vastardikai 07-28-2014 01:40 PM

If only his debut would go something like this...

"This reminds me of a story from a cousin back in Ireland"

(Devitt runs in and kicks Sheamus in the back of the head)

"No one cares!"

slik 07-28-2014 02:00 PM

I would lol if he debuted as Sheamus's special friend, the way Joy Giovanni was Big Show's special friend.

Hanso Amore 07-28-2014 02:04 PM

"Whats your gimmick"

"I do flips and dress like commick book characters"

Hes basically slightly better Justin Gabriel

Shisen Kopf 07-28-2014 02:05 PM

I don't like the name they gave him. He looks more like a Rusty Daggers. That should be his name.

Jura 07-28-2014 02:36 PM

Ser Daggerson of the Rustlands

Lock Jaw 07-28-2014 02:39 PM

Can't stop laughing at the name "Fergal"

Hanso Amore 07-28-2014 02:39 PM

Rusty Daggers is too Memphis for Vince.

his new name will be Lancaster Wellington III

Hanso Amore 07-28-2014 02:40 PM

And he will tear up NXT then show up at a Raw and Vince will be "Whose kid is this?"

then he is fired.

Hanso Amore 07-28-2014 02:41 PM

His gimmick will be based on whatever showtime show was number 1 on their network 3 years ago today

DaveBrawl 07-28-2014 02:50 PM

So Homeland?

Hanso Amore 07-28-2014 02:56 PM

Yup.

Dexter peaked about 5 years ago, Homeland 3. Ray Donavan has about 18 months until someone gets that gimmick.

Shisen Kopf 07-28-2014 04:59 PM

fuck it, I'm gonna train to be a rassler and I'll use Rusty Daggers as my name. So much awesome!

Mr. Nerfect 07-29-2014 08:19 AM

Dexter Donovan being his NXT name would not surprise me. I've heard great things, but I haven't seen a match. CSL suggested he wouldn't be surprised if the WWE hired him. CSL knows his shit.

I guess he's sort of an Irish Daniel Bryan who has elements of Jeff Hardy and Rey Mysterio as presentation perks.

So he's a mixture of a vanilla midget, a drug addict and a 2 foot Mexican who hasn't had a good match in 10 years?

Awesome

Mr. Nerfect 07-29-2014 09:00 AM

He's a mixture of a great rassler and two guys who know how to capture attention visually. Not sure how vanilla or drug-addicted he will turn out to be.

Daniel Bryan was a vanilla midget before he came to WWE and look where he is. That said, he literally stumbled into a goldmine and WWE know how to capitalize on these things. DeVitt has a similar amount of talent, a bit more personality than Bryan showed before hitting WWE and a much better look (x10 if they let him keep doing the comic book film villain schtick, which I doubt) How successful he is all depends on what they do with him, how he adapts and a certain amount of luck. I could see him making a lot of money and I could see him doing nothing at all. Interested to see tho. If Punk, Bryan, Rollins, Ambrose etc can excel, no reason he can't. I'd certainly give him the best shot out of him, KENTA and Steen. Although if Steen really works on his look, he has the mouth to outdo both.

Innovator 07-29-2014 03:06 PM

Has anyone thought of the NXT roster now?

Zayn, Neville, Sami Callihan, Kalisto, KENTA, Kevin Steen, Prince Devitt, BULL FUCKING DEMPSEY

whiteyford 07-29-2014 03:13 PM

And Enzo.

Innovator 07-29-2014 03:17 PM

I expect Enzo to be WWE Champion by September

Steen also has the mouth to Chris Hero is way out of developmental.

Honestly steen should just accept that hes a fat fuck who will never have a look that Vince will put over.

Slap on a suit and work as a mouth piece. Go the Bobby heenan route. He could be a good heat magnet.

I am watching some Prince. Yeah hes indyriffic. I could see him going the Bryan route but he has like zero time to do it. Hes 33. it took bryan a few years to get it down in the WWE. Roillins and Ambrose too.

CSL 07-29-2014 03:52 PM

oh he's indyriffic alright but the ability he has is there to see. When you have that amount of ability, you can adapt quite easily with the right people pointing you in the right direction. Of which there are an endless amount of in WWE. His biggest obstacle will probably be learning how to "wrestle for TV" but that's what NXT is for

CSL 07-29-2014 03:54 PM

disagree about Bryan, he was having some of the best matches on the card as soon as he wasn't being hammered on NXT

teamXtremist 07-30-2014 02:58 AM

Agreed at 33 clock is ticking

Kevin Steen as a mouthpiece if he can't keep up his shape is actually a good idea.

Optimus Bone 69 08-02-2014 08:49 PM

i assume hes the next big nothing

Shisen Kopf 08-02-2014 09:16 PM

Rusty Daggers 4-LIFE!

Sepholio 08-02-2014 09:28 PM

Sheamus & Dewitt are gonna have teh secks.
