The NXT Universe started going nuts when the cameras showed Bobby Roode sitting in attendance at NXT Takeover: Dallas.

Earlier this week, William Regal was talking backstage during NXT Takeover: The End and Roode walked past him in a moment that made his debut in NXT inevitable.

However, NXT live events can be extremely unpredictable, and Bobby Roode made a shocking debut during the Download Festival in England.

Roode would go on to get a victory over Angelo Dawkins, but the important thing is that he’s officially debuted in NXT, and his brief appearances at the previous two Takeovers are a clear indication that he’ll debut on NXT programming shortly.

The following video was posted of his entrance during his NXT debut:

The only question is what Roode’s role will be in NXT. It was previously rumored that we could be heading for a feud between Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura, so that could leave the door open for Roode to challenge Samoa Joe for the NXT Championship or feud with Austin Aries.

What do you think Roode’s role will be in NXT?
