NXT Superstar Hideo Itami Makes Surprise Return At Live Event To Take Revenge On The Man Who Injured Him
Hideo Itami has been on the shelf for quite some time now, but he finally made his return at an NXT Live Event last night for some long overdue revenge! Hit the jump for details and to check out the video...
When we last saw Hideo Itami, he was feuding with Austin Aries. However, a botched powerslam courtesy of Riddick Moss at a live event put the NXT Superstar on the shelf with a neck injury and Aries has since moved up to the main roster as part of 205 Live. Itami made a surprise return in Orlando yesterday, and as you can see below, he was out for revenge!
It's unclear whether or not this means the two will embark on a televised feud, but that would be a good match for NXT TakeOver: Orlando and could be just what Riddick needs to put himself on the map in a big way.
No matter what happens, though, it's great to see Itami back in action. He's been plagued by injuries since debuting on NXT, something which has really damaged his momentum and slowed down what seemed like an inevitable main roster debut. With any luck, he'll now have better luck with this run, while fans clearly loved seeing Moss get what was coming to him.
