EC3 went from NXT to TNA’s main event scene

While EC3 never transitioned onto the main roster in NXT, the former NXT alum has done well for himself in TNA. He was in the main event picture since his debut and continues to be successful in his run with TNA. He was primarily featured in the main event and was part of a major storyline upon his debut as the nephew of Dixie Carter. EC3 would have the assistance of Tyrus as his bodyguard until he recently turned on him. EC3 is currently in a tournament to determine a number one contender for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship at Bound for Glory.
