NXT’s latest teaser for someone who almost certainly isn’t Okada

During their Vengeance Day premium live event earlier this month, NXT aired a teaser for… something or someone. Since the saying it included was said to be of Japanese origin, there was speculation it could be leading to the arrival of New Japan star Kazuchika Okada in WWE.

That always seemed like a bit of a stretch (not as big of a stretch as my thinking the Schism mask that appeared in the NXT logo last week was heralding anything other than Joe Gacy’s appearance later in the show… sometimes I get excited, okay?), and recent reports say Okada is 100% AEW bound. So we need a new list of suspects, and we have a new clue courtesy of NXT’s latest episode…

This one includes a shorter phrase about evil:

Goodness is a man’s struggle. Evil however, is human nature.

It’s once again accompanied by the sound of approaching footsteps and a snippet of a horror movie score.
