Hank Walker, an NXT security guard who has been butting heads with Big Body Javi over the past few weeks, had his in-ring debut on NXT 2.0 this week. Walker got an impressive win and the NXT crowd was ecstatic. Now he was offered an NXT contract.

WWE released a behind-a-scenes video of Walker and friends on the security team celebrating his big win. Meanwhile, Shawn Michaels rewarded that by offering Hank an official NXT contract. 

“Congratulations, big win. I’d like to take the time to offer you an official NXT contract. Of course, sign it whenever you want,” Michaels said to Walker.

Bernal then interrupted and said, “You know what, Hank? Tonight was a fluke, alright? Consider yourself lucky.”
