WWE NXT Superstar Jordan Omogbehin made his in-ring debut at Thursday's NXT live event in Lakeland, Florida.
Omogbehin defeated Team 3.0 (Jeffrey Parker and Matthew Menard-Lee) in a 1-on-2 Handicap Match. He was led to the ring by Courtenay Moore, the former Stokely Hathaway.
The 7-foot-3, 25 year old Omogbehin was signed in the same WWE Performance Center Class from October 2018 that also featured Matt Riddle, Chelsea Green, Mia Yim and others. He was born in Lagos, Nigeria and played Division-I college basketball at Morgan State University and the University of South Florida. He also played high school ball in Virginia.
