The man, the myth, the student. This week’s Monday Night Raw was the Raw Reunion special, with a variety of wrestlers showing up for the first time in many years. Some of these names were bigger than others, with people such as Steve Austin and Hulk Hogan being the major attractions. As it turns out though, not all of the legends made it to the broadcast.
WWE has posted a video to their YouTube page showing Nicholas appearing backstage. Nicholas, the then ten year old who won the Raw Tag Team Titles with Braun Strowman at WrestleMania 34, said that he was in the building to challenge for the 24/7 Title and promised that R-Truth would get his hands. Since winning the titles, Nicholas has been mentioned occasionally by WWE, though never on an actual show.
The kid still gives me chills. Check out Nicholas’ appearance:
Opinion: This is the kind of thing that WWE could do for years to come. Nicholas was a rather unique moment back in the day and it would be hilarious to have him show up again at some point in the future, especially if Strowman is still around. I know it’s not the funniest gag in the world, but there are far worse things that WWE could use their time doing.
Did you like the Nicholas gag? Should he ever appear again? Let us know in the comments below.
