Brogan Finlay, Brother of NJPW’s David Finlay, Signs With WWE

Brogan Finlay has officially signed with WWE NXT and is set to arrive at the Performance Center in Orlando in due time. 

News of Finlay’s signing was broken by PW Insider. The 21-year-old wrestler attended the Performance Center for a tryout earlier this year. Other names who attended the same tryout include Madi Wrenkowski, Jazmin Allure, and Hollyhood Haley J. 

Brogan Finlay’s Heritage

Finlay is a fourth-generation wrestler, with his father being the well-respected Dave ‘Fit’ Finlay. The elder Finlay joined WWE in 2001 following the demise of WCW and is a former WWE United States Champion. Brogan’s grandfather David Sr. and great-grandfather also fought during their respective eras. 

Brogan isn’t the only Finlay of his generation to be active in the ring. His brother David Finlay III is signed to New Japan Pro-Wrestling and is the seventh and current leader of the Bullet Club. He is also a former NEVER Openweight Champion. 

Brogan Finlay in the Ring

Brogan Finlay made his in-ring debut in June 2021 with a victory over Chris Dickinson at a Beyond Project Dolphin event. While he is a relative newcomer to the wrestling industry, Finlay has competed in multiple promotions. The fourth-generation wrestler has already competed for GCW, New Japan, Wrestling Revolver, Black Label Pro, and Blitzkrieg! Pro to name just a few companies. Finlay’s most recent match took place at Game Changer Wrestling’s Si or No? event last month. Brogan lost to Tony Deppen at the event.
