In an update on Adrian Neville coming to the WWE’s main roster, the former WWE NXT Champion will not be working under the character of a pirate, despite several reports stating that would be his gimmick on the main roster.

The company are instead planning for a gimmick that is described as Neville being the “very small character” who is “very strong” and “very agile”. There is a hope in the company that with the gimmick he is given, that the fans will immediately take to his character, as he is considered to be one of Triple H’s top guys in WWE NXT.
