Lexis King, a WWE NXT star, has proven his adaptability in the wrestling scene by transitioning from roles in different wrestling promotions. Now, as he settles into NXT, WWE’s collaboration with TNA brings about changes in the roster.

In a recent interview on “Busted Open Radio,” King expressed his perspective on the partnership, stating, “I think it’s cool and all. I don’t care what acronym — TNA, ECW, AEW — I don’t care where you come from. I came from a different acronym at one time. I don’t look at any one roster as a set bubble. I think, if you look at pro wrestling, you got to look at the whole landscape; you got to look at the entire roster … so I don’t look at different factions as this, that, or the other. I think everybody is an opponent, everybody is an enemy of mine, and if you’re coming over to my show and taking spots, you’re on my radar, because I’m the king of ‘NXT,’ and this is my domain.
“You’re going to come in here and you’re going to parade around that TNA flag? Well you better get ready to get in the ring and throw some hands, because I’m fighting for my spot, too. I don’t care what acronym that is — we’re all wrestlers, we’re all in this business together, and I think we should all be fighting for the spots equally as hard, and we should all be putting on our best performances.”
