Former IWGP Heavyweight champion EVIL made his WWE debut yesterday on NXT, confronting NXT champion Tony D’Angelo.

D’Angelo, who received a box last week with a Japanese symbol on it, quickly found out who was the sender, as during his in-ring segment, he was interrupted by a person wearing a hooded jacket.

The champ was handed a rolled-up banner with the same symbol from the box and the hooded man then unveiled himself as EVIL.

“Holy hell, Booker! The rumors are true. That is the former IWGP Heavyweight champion,” Vic Joseph said on commentary.

EVIL was not referred to by his New Japan Pro-Wrestling name but several “evil” references were made, including WWE’s YouTube clip which referred to him as Tony D’Angelo’s “evil new challenger.”
