Summary

Starboy Charlie, competing as Chazz Hall, made his NXT television debut on the April 7 episode on The CW as part of the tournament to crown a new WWE Men’s Speed Champion. The tournament was set after Elio LeFleur underwent shoulder surgery and relinquished the title.

Hall entered the bracket as the reigning WWE I.D. Men’s Champion, but his first-round match ended with Lexis King moving on in the tournament.

Winner

Lexis King defeated Chazz "Starboy" Hall to advance in the WWE Men’s Speed Championship tournament.

What the NXT appearance means for Starboy Charlie

Starboy Charlie getting tournament time on NXT TV is another visible step for WWE's I.D. system, especially because he already holds the WWE I.D. Men’s Championship and earned a WWE I.D. contract by beating Cappuccino Jones.

Even with the loss, Hall stays in the spotlight this week. He is also scheduled for the April 8 episode of WWE EVOLVE, and he will defend the WWE I.D. Men’s Title against Marcus Mathers on April 16 at the WWE I.D. Showcase in Las Vegas.
