History

Roderick Strong made his return on June 22 episode of NXT, attacking Kushida, as the Diamond Mine stable along with Tyler Rust (who was released weeks after and later replaced by The Creed Brothers and Ivy Nile) with Hachiman as the stable's trainer and Malcolm Bivens as their manager.[1] On the September 21 episode of NXT 2.0, Strong defeated Kushida to win the NXT Cruiserweight Championship.[2] At NXT WarGames, Strong defeated Joe Gacy, retaining his championship. On the NXT: New Year's Evil, he lost the title to Carmelo Hayes, unifying both North American and Cruiserweight titles.[3] Strong and the rest of Diamond Mine would slowly turn face at the start of 2022, when they entered a feud with Imperium. On February 15, 2022, at NXT Vengeance Day, The Creed Brothers defeated MSK to win the Men's Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.[4] Bivens was released from WWE on April 29, 2022. On May 2nd, 2022, Roderick Strong asked for his release from WWE.
