Carmelo Hayes Has Plan To Change NXT Title Design

Carmelo Hayes is an incredibly talented and promising professional wrestler who has already achieved a lot in his young career. Since his debut in 2021, he made a big impression with his in-ring abilities and his charismatic personality. After his debut, NXT experienced the 2.0 revamp and the brand underwent significant changes in a matter of months, and young competitors such as Bron Breakker quickly rose to prominence. NXT also transformed its look from black and gold to a rainbow-based color scheme. Carmelo Hayes openly admitted that he would like to change NXT’s rainbow championship.

The former NXT North American Champion has shown a remarkable ability to connect with the audience, and his high-flying and innovative wrestling style has made him a fan favorite. He is a natural athlete who has worked hard to perfect his craft, and his dedication to his training and his passion for the sport is truly admirable.

Bron Breakker and Carmelo Hayes became the faces of NXT during the 2.0 era, and they have remained the brand’s top stars even as NXT has transitioned into a new chapter. Breakker is the current NXT Champion, and WWE previously introduced a new title with a rainbow design. Hayes will face Breakker for the NXT Championship at NXT Stand & Deliver, making it the youngest WrestleMania weekend main event star ever.

On the March 22nd episode of WWE’s The Bump, Carmelo Hayes was asked about customizing the NXT Championship if he beats Breakker. Hayes initially stated that he has been focusing on the match, but he later stated that he would like to get away from the rainbow championship. Hayes stated that the title defines the Bron Breakker era, and he wants to enter his own.

“All I’m thinking about is that match with Bron. I’m not really thinking about much other than the match. I mean, I’d like to get away from the rainbow championship. I think that that defines that generation of Bron Breakker, and we’re gonna move way past that and go into the Him Era, which is my era, the Carmelo Hayes era. So it is a possibility, but I need to get to LA and I need to get to Stand & Deliver before we start talking about those types of things.”

Carmelo Hayes’ loss at NXT Stand & Deliver 2022 came up during the discussion, and the #1 contender emphasized how much he has grown since then. He stated that he is at the peak of his abilities, and Breakker will have to prove himself when they meet at NXT Stand & Deliver.

“The fact that you bring up last year, if you look at who I was last year as a competitor, I was a completely different competitor. I’ve learned so much from my mistakes over the last years, and there’s very few mistakes that I’ve made. But I’ve learned from each and every one of those ones. But coming into this Stand & Deliver, I’m stronger than I’ve ever been, I’m smarter than I’ve ever been, I’m at the top of my game, man.

A lot of people talk about Bron Breakker and me having to beat Bron Breakker. But the real question is, can Bron Breakker beat me? I’m the one to beat in this match. He has to understand that. He’s never beat a Carmelo Hayes, he’s never been up against a Carmelo Hayes. So I’m a whole different beast, I’m a whole different animal coming into this match. He can’t block me, he can’t guard me. I’ve shot the shot 1,000 times. I really am him.”

Overall, Carmelo Hayes is a rising star in the wrestling world, and he has the potential to become one of the biggest names in the industry in the years to come. His talent, dedication, and positive attitude make him a perfect fit for the company. We will have to wait and see what happens when he tries to dethrone Bron Breakker and secure the NXT title for himself.
