Tyra Mae Steele, Jasper Troy Win WWE LFG, Set to Shake Up NXT Roster

Tyra Mae Steele and Jasper Troy have stormed into the WWE spotlight, clinching victory in the WWE Legends and Future Greats competition on Sunday night. Their prize? Coveted contracts with WWE NXT, the proving ground for wrestling’s next big stars. Steele outshined Zena Sterling, while Troy bested Shiloh Hill, setting the stage for their debut in NXT’s high-octane arena.

Steele, whose real name is Tamyra Mensah-Stock, is no stranger to dominating her field. An Olympic gold medalist in freestyle wrestling at Tokyo 2021, she’s also racked up world championships and Pan American titles. Her message to the NXT women’s division is clear: “I bring an Olympic standard.” In an interview, she vowed to flatten anyone in her path, promising to keep the women’s roster the hottest in wrestling. “They’ll feel it, love it, or respect it,” she declared, her confidence as fierce as her accolades.

Troy, born Antoine Frazer, brings his own fire. A former college football player, he’s been grinding in WWE’s ranks for nearly three years. Reflecting on his journey, he described the post-victory high followed by months of quiet hustle—a test of patience he’s ready to conquer. “I’m here to shuffle the deck,” he said, eyeing NXT’s stacked men’s roster, once led by names like Bron Breakker and Carmelo Hayes. Troy’s not just here to participate; he’s here to be a game-changer.

Both stars are brimming with anticipation. Steele sees her NXT debut as a chance to unleash her energy on the WWE Universe, while Troy likens it to awaiting a blockbuster movie role. As they step into NXT, they’re not just joining the roster—they’re putting it on notice.
