WWE NXT Star Confirmed for GCW Bloodsport Match

WWE NXT star Myles Borne is the latest talent to be announced for a crossover match at GCW Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XII. This event, renowned for its unique no-ropes, knockout-or-submission rules, will take place on November 24, 2024. Borne is set to face Royce Isaacs, marking a significant moment in his career as he represents WWE on the independent wrestling scene.

Myles Borne Joins the Bloodsport Lineup

GCW’s Bloodsport series has become a favorite among wrestling purists, with its emphasis on a raw, competitive style reminiscent of MMA. Borne, who has been steadily rising through WWE’s NXT ranks, joins a lineup of notable WWE stars who have participated in previous Bloodsport events, including Shayna Baszler and Charlie Dempsey.

Josh Barnett, the event’s organizer, hinted at a storyline-driven angle for Borne’s match, stating, “Revenge may be on the mind of Borne, but the only thing on Royce Isaacs’ mind is to show this newcomer what ‘No Quarter’ truly means.”

Bloodsport’s Unique Appeal for WWE Talent

The crossover underscores WWE’s willingness to allow talent to participate in events outside its promotion, a practice that has gained traction under Triple H’s leadership. These appearances offer WWE stars the opportunity to showcase their skills in unique environments, broadening their appeal to a wider audience.

For Borne, this match serves as a chance to further establish himself as a versatile competitor. His inclusion in such a prestigious event reflects WWE’s confidence in his potential and their commitment to expanding the reach of their developmental talent.

Additional Matches at Bloodsport XII

Borne’s match is part of an exciting card that also features NXT’s Karmen Petrovic taking on Sumie Sakai. This continued collaboration between WWE and GCW highlights the growing relationship between major wrestling promotions and the independent circuit.

As November 24 approaches, fans eagerly anticipate how Myles Borne will perform on the grand stage of Bloodsport XII. His showdown with Royce Isaacs is expected to be a physical and competitive spectacle that further bridges the gap between WWE and independent wrestling promotions.
