Shawn Spears says he is very fulfilled in NXT.
Spears previously had a run with WWE from 2013-2019, and he returned to NXT in February 2024. Since then, he has become a featured member of the roster, and he also has responsibilities behind the scenes.
Speaking with Gabby LaSpisa on Gabby AF in an interview that was recorded before the March 4th episode of WWE NXT, Spears discussed his run in NXT and made it clear that he was enjoying his time there.
“I’m not going anywhere. This is the last stop. [Gabby says she wants to see him on the main roster]. I, no. I mean no in a sense where it’s not my call. If Hunter plucks me, a chicken, if he plucks me, it’s his call. If Shawn says, ‘Go up,’ it’s their call. Right now, I am very fulfilled, I’m very happy with where I am. I’m very happy with what I’m doing. I love this. The awesome thing for me is that everybody on the main roster now, everybody in those top spots, to some degree. I’ve wrestled them somewhere. Developmental or in different companies, I’ve been with them, and now to see them all, I’m still a part of the machine. I’m still there. We’re just in different sections of the company. We’re all in it together, and that’s the beautiful thing, and I’m good with that," Spears said.
Spears won the NXT North American Championship on the March 4th episode of WWE NXT.
