Sheamus might have some explaining to do nowadays. While the Celtic Warrior continues to be one of the biggest babyfaces in the entire WWE, his former mentees are now anything but — as he can attest from being recently attacked by Pete Dunne (formerly known as Butch). And now, as witnessed on NXT No Mercy in Denver, it’s Ridge Holland going dark.

There was plenty to take away from the Black and Gold Brand’s PLE, seeing as it was a banger from beginning to end, and even featured the debut of Giulia but, seeing as she didn’t say a word or put hands on Roxanne Perez, it’s what Holland did to his fellow Chase U members that takes the crown as the single most shocking moment of the night.

After losing the NXT Tag Team titles to Axiom and Nathan Frazer, the very duo he and Andre Chase defeated to acquire them in the first place, Holland went ballistic — attacking Riley Osborne and Duke Hudson from behind before ignoring the pleas of a crying Thea Hail as he brutalized Andre Chase, sending him to the hospital.

Holland had no comment backstage, save for a grunt and a smirk as he left the arena, and even general manager Ava was mostly at a loss for words over what she witnessed. 

What this means for NXT’s tag division, or even their solo division, going forward is anyone’s guess but one thing is for certain: there are now TWO former Brutes on a rampage in the WWE.

And that means no one is safe.
