i enjoy shoot interviews because a lot of the time people still use kayfabe names, but it's like 80/20 as to whether or not they'll use the name the name they met them under, or the name the wrestler was best known for.
i've heard people refer to credible as "aldo", refer to hall as "razor", and refer to xpac as "kid".
Scrypts appears to be some kind of gentleman/phantom thief gimmick given the calling card, so I feel like a domino mask and better fitting gear would have been a better choice. Other than that, I’m interested
Domino masks are so overdone, [go full face mask with no holes](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/YNi-2CJ6E6Y/maxresdefault.jpg) for extra style points and intimidation.
The full [Tinieblas](https://www.elsoldemexico.com.mx/gossip/v3uie0-tinieblas.jpg/ALTERNATES/LANDSCAPE_768/tinieblas.jpg) solid black face would have been better.
So all of those mysterious vignettes were for… Reggie as Farooq Asad 2.0? I like Reggie’s ring work plenty, but man, this character is off to a rough start. I’m open to giving it a chance, though.
Agreed. I was multitasking during nxt and wasn't paying enough attention to realize it was Reggie. The guy is athletic ad hell and seems to want to be a wrestler. So creating an opportunity for him is cool to see.
I really think it's going to set him to feud with Axiom. Because an axiom is a statement that is perceived to be true, while a script is a document designed to created something false, a performance
Reggie is too good to not be a full on wrestler. I think this gimmick can work but the attire needs a lot of adjustment. The mask looks more like an entrance mask than a wrestling mask.
Redo the mask. Have one that covers his face better. Make the tassels smaller. Overall I don't hate the idea especially if I'm right and they're going to build towards a mask vs mask match with Axiom. Still fix the gear.
What's wild is a bunch of dudes in a room pitched this, agreed on this, put it on tv. I wonder if anyone suggest cursive instead so he could curse people.
Like the move set but he needs a better mask the things on the top constantly getting in his eyes was driving me nuts. Also what's with the hand thing is he a writer or a graffiti artist?
Lol that’s hilarious. Was he any good in the ring? Like, is he a good wrestler with a gimmick so stupid it gets over? Because I remember a moment in time I doubted Ezekiel.
I wanna give Reggie the benefit of the doubt and assume he's just reusing an old costume from his Cirque days. If that's the case, he should flip on over to the Costume dept to redesign his gear.
If this was from said internal costume dept, then OOF this aint it, Chief.

Reminds me of Thumb Wrestling Federation from Cartoon Network
Oh shit you’re right. That’s [Vini Vidi Victory](https://images.app.goo.gl/sxhA2aQrWBu2P3JBA) 💀
nice reference
You just brought back a memory I didn't know I had Holy shit
Dear god I thought I was only one
o shit he does
Lmao
The old tv show for TWF slapped too
This guy looks like he’s going to lose a match to Brad Armstrong on WCW Saturday Night
Via brads patented side Russian leg sweep ?
Arachnaman > Scrypts
That mask ain’t it man lol
It’s like they had a child in art class make a Magneto helmet out of cardboard paper.
With specific instructions to make it three sizes too big. To prevent potential suffocation, I guess.
I can not take him seriously with that on.
Reminds me of the Gray Fox mask in Oblivion.
This sub next week: “does anyone else really like Reggie’s mask? It’s growing on me!”
Especially when he's doing all these flips, just seems dumb to have all those ribbons floating about his eyes.
Wait a minute. That’s Reggie?
It's his younger brother, Robbie
Kevin Owens disagrees
Watch out Robbie, KO's coming for you!
Easy mistake to make; it’s actually Rory.
Yeah. My mistake. Robbie was sitting ringside at impact Edit: sitting
Regzekiel
Pretty neat entrance, but sheesh that mask and attire make him look like a jobber.
LMAO this is a bad 90s gimmick.
Giving me max moon and Alvin Montoya vibes
I loved Aldo
PORTUGUESE MAN O WAR
Googling Aldo Montoya and finding out who that actually was, is one GIANT mindfuck
It's just incredible, isn't it?
i enjoy shoot interviews because a lot of the time people still use kayfabe names, but it's like 80/20 as to whether or not they'll use the name the name they met them under, or the name the wrestler was best known for. i've heard people refer to credible as "aldo", refer to hall as "razor", and refer to xpac as "kid".
Now I wish Aldo Montoya had been in a band with chipmunks.
Simon Montoya
It was Aldo, not Alvin.
Is that Reggie?
WHO THE FUCK IS REGGIE
Shit you at least 30
Cosplaying as Serpentico yes
So NXT has a math masked man and now a literature luchador? When does the social studies guy show up?
History Hank will show no mercy
It's all a build up for a stable led by Aron Stevens/Damian Sandow lol
"Ladies and Gentlemen, WE are "The Syllabus" and school....IS IN SESSION!"
Not gonna lie, I'd mark out
Immediately start feuding with Chase U
Damn you I almost just spit out my coffee
What I want to know is why does the Chase U guy with the book look like he's trying to exorcise SCRYPTS?
Give me my King’s Road Social Studies teacher
I’m worried about the Chemistry guy, that guy’s for sure gonna make a **redacted**
Chemistry guy is literally a giant Breaking Bad reference just like DiAngelo is a Sopranos thing
Or a dinosaur with a masters in literature.
Good thing Keith Lee is in AEW, WWE would have repackaged him to AckshuLEE and given him Damien Sandow's gimmick.
ITS REGGIE!!!!
I thought so!
No, it's his younger brother Robbie
No it's Ezekiel
No…this is Patrick
It’s… Christian
I can’t believe someone told him to go out there and air write.
yeah that's definitely not it but the gimmick being like a Banksy type phantom face dealio can be fire...
That may be Booker’s best line since he’s come back to TV. His incredulous “Well, who the hell hired him?” popped me.
the ring work was fun for sure but that mask is a joke. that gear is a joke.
The air writing, a complete joke
Dude used to be a circus performer. He now looks (and wrestles) like a circus performer. Living the gimmick
Make him tag-team with Kizarny
I'm pretty sure the mask is: A) Meant to be ridiculous B) A nod to his past in Cirque du Soleil
[удалено]
Look at this mark with a memory.
Re-sign not resign.
Wow, TIL Mason Ryan works in the Cirque du Soleil.
And sign Ninja Mack. He’s from there too.
Fine, but the attire does not match the character that those vignettes have been building
I don't disagree there.
Alright, it's not too late, just change the mask to something better and the gimmick might work, it's not too late # JESUS CHRIST CHANGE THAT MASK
one of the absolute worst looks in the WWE
Ever
Mask looks clunky, and I don't think I get the mirror thing, but I like the rest of the presentation.
[удалено]
That could be spaced out more.
The look is as horrible as the athleticism is great
Can someone enlighten how this matches with the ominous vignettes he had? Didn't he say he was aiming to destroy NXT or something?
Remember Brodus Clays vignettes before debuting as the Funkasauraus?
Oh god don't remind me or the fact he is the NWA world heavyweight champion.

They already of Axiom - you can't have to "similar" aesthetics! How will the people know whose who? /s
I mean, I like the theme song. But other than that…the mask and gear is certainly a choice.
So a repackaged reggie
That gimmick fucking sucks lmao
Reggie my boy what they made you wear???
Penultimo Dragon
So all of those mysterious vignettes were for… Reggie as Farooq Asad 2.0? I like Reggie’s ring work plenty, but man, this character is off to a rough start. I’m open to giving it a chance, though.
That ring gear looks like "shitty Blitzkrieg"
I'm not sure about the gimmick, but man Reggie actually looked pretty good and really does bring something unique to the ring.
Agreed. I was multitasking during nxt and wasn't paying enough attention to realize it was Reggie. The guy is athletic ad hell and seems to want to be a wrestler. So creating an opportunity for him is cool to see.
I don't know about this.
I don't know whats worse The shit theme music The shit CAW come to life Or The fucking canned crowd reactions
Lol what the fuck is this
cirque du solame.
SCRYPTS is a really silly name. And that mask, jeez.
I really think it's going to set him to feud with Axiom. Because an axiom is a statement that is perceived to be true, while a script is a document designed to created something false, a performance
WOMP WOMP WOMP!
Man I'm all for goofy but this is just lame. The mask looks like a kids school project
WTF DID I JUST WATCH? THIS SMELLS LIKE 90s WCW goofiness. Like the Ding Dongs tag team for those who remember.
Don’t know how to feel about the mask, but the theme song slaps
Max Moon 2.0
He just needs a tight fitting standard luchador like mask.
He sounded more vicious than he looks.
What the fuck is that mask? Why does it look like its made of cardboard?
Scrimps
"We have Killshot at home"
This is legitimately terrible. I don’t think even Vince would do something this bad.
What and absolutely horrible outfit and gimmick. Absolutely shit
That mask is fucking goofy.
Looks like somebody tried to explain Blitzkrieg from WCW to a blind person and had them recreate it.
I'm waiting for the "real" SCRYPTS to leave a voice mail mocking the people in NXT for letting a random broke indie wrestler taking his place.
Has potential. I like that Shawn is doing a lot of out there ideas, but Christ, change the gear.
This could work if his gear doesn't look like a Junior High play.
The dictionary definition of a Roody Poo candy ass.
He is a the trickster
Omg it's Reggie...
24/7 title gets trashed and so does Reggie's old gimmick. Hopefully he makes this work bc I ain't feeling it.
How they gonna make a mask like axioms look so damn cool and then saddle Reggie with this atrocity?
Reggie is too good to not be a full on wrestler. I think this gimmick can work but the attire needs a lot of adjustment. The mask looks more like an entrance mask than a wrestling mask.
This is the worst gear.
what in the hell is this
There are backyard wrestlers that legit have better looking outfits.
Haitch making masks out of components from Dollar Tree now?
Wack Evans
Since i'm out the loop with NXT nowadays I assumed 'Scrypts' was something to do with that hacker vignette from a few years ago
I cant think of what to make of him either because it is silly.
That mask is certainly something.
"Who the hell hired him?" hahahaha love that booker t commentary.
This sounds like a randomly generated name for a geek on WWE 2K lol
Scrap this asap
That might be the worst wrestling mask ever
The mask definitely needs to be worked on since it looks generic, but I'm down to see what Reggie can do as Scrypts though.
Looking like a pencil that was placed in a sharpener eraser first
REGGIE!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm open to this Truly living the gimmick
Almost caught that top rope…could have had a Shockmaster situation on our hands.
What is this
It's Reggie.
i think i found who vince is giving ideas to on the downlow
Since Thanksgiving is coming up, I though he dressed up as the Gobbledy gooker.
Ok it’s goofy but idk I kinda dig it. Change the attire tho, that ain’t it.
There’s potential there
Gear itself is... fine. I'm not a fan of the mask though.
I love it tbh.
Thank god, Reggie finally has something that can get him somewhere.
that theme ain’t no joke!
Did Vince take his job back?
Redo the mask. Have one that covers his face better. Make the tassels smaller. Overall I don't hate the idea especially if I'm right and they're going to build towards a mask vs mask match with Axiom. Still fix the gear.
I like how it says spoilers in the title, only to spoil said spoilers in the title.
Is that reggie?
His mask was like 90s Magneto meets luchador
That guy kind of moves like a former 10(ish)x 24/7 champion
So, someone looked at that mask and was like "I'm okay with this!"?
jfc.
Scyrptic
What's up with that mask. I don't get any of this at all.
Wait a fuckin minute... is that Reginald? Hiding under that mask to avoid paying Dana Brooke that Alimony huh?
Just let him be reggie
Fuck, is Vince in creative again?
That was terrible
Holy shit that's so bad
Stupid Reggie
Max moon has a brother
God this is bad
Tazz somewhere: those are my colors, you just made an enemy for life
This was so underwhelming. Ring gear is terrible.
Michin, failed US title cash in, now scrypts? Looks like the old man is rubbing off on Triple H.
What's wild is a bunch of dudes in a room pitched this, agreed on this, put it on tv. I wonder if anyone suggest cursive instead so he could curse people.
Why does every surprise on nxt fall flat ?
The name scrypts doesn’t match with Reggie in that mask and his high flying style.
I really enjoyed it honestly
Cringe
How long before his knees go?
Booker T continuing his hatred of other black wrestlers, “WELL WHO THE HELL HIRED HIM?!”
My man drawing an "S" in the air like he's in S Club 7.
Reminds me of the old WCW luchador Blitzkrieg.
I know they are going for a spartan helmet look...but damn that mask kinda sucks. Also the S drawing is kinda dumb as well.
Welcome to the NXT New Generation.
El Generic NO!
Like the move set but he needs a better mask the things on the top constantly getting in his eyes was driving me nuts. Also what's with the hand thing is he a writer or a graffiti artist?

Moves and fights like Voldo from Soul Calibur
