During a recent appearance on the “After the Bell with Corey Graves” podcast, WWE NXT 2.0 Superstar Pete Dunne commented on coming into the WWE NXT roster, his goal of becoming NXT 2.0 champion, and more. You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On coming into the WWE NXT roster: “I had a weird situation when I came in because I wasn’t strictly an NXT guy. I was doing the UK Tournament still. I was still doing independent shows at the time. I would also get to be on RAW and SmackDown live events and be a part of the Royal Rumble. I was just scattered all around the scene, so for me, it didn’t always feel like that. Sinking more into NXT, it almost became a mindset of, ‘We want to make this on the same level as RAW and SmackDown.’ Every TakeOver we had before the main roster show, we wanted to make them follow this. It became less about wanting to go up there and show I can hang with these guys [on the main roster], instead make the whole brand and elevate it to the point where it’s on the same level. I can see it heading now in a way where it’s heading back to that older mentality of wanting to get up to RAW or SmackDown and show what we can do alongside them. It’s just another shift, but it’s the same chip on your shoulder, same mentality of proving that it’s not just the next guys, we can do this right now.”

On his goal of becoming NXT champion: “The big one that’s evaded me for a long time is the NXT title. I’d be lying if I said I don’t feel like I deserve a run with that and I can do great things with that. It’s obviously something that I’ve been right there so many times, so that’s something I would love to accomplish in my career. Outside of that, there are all these guys now for me to work with and different scenarios to be in so I’m just excited to see what the future holds really.”
