WATCH: NXT star uploads “Dark Side of the Ring” spoof about his WWE status
WWE NXT star Brendan Vink has created a spoof of Vice’s “Dark Side of the Ring” series by uploading the first episode of “Dark Side of the Smug,” which was released on his YouTube channel.
Chelsea Green, Rhea Ripley, Bronson Reed, Matt Martel, Daniel Vidot, and Hartley Jackson are featured in the video. The description for the first episode reads like this:
“This series focuses on controversial subjects and events within the career of WWE Superstar ‘Brendan Vink’ and attempts to find the truth of his journey; located somewhere near the intersection of fantasy and reality.”
Vink was called up to the main roster earlier this year to work tag team matches with Shane Throne. However, WWE pulled Vink from TV and sent him back to NXT where he was re-packaged as Tony Modra while Throne is now going by the name, Slapjack, in RETRIBUTION.
WWE even trademarked the “Tony Modra” name so he could use it on social media and eventually on TV. However, it appears that the name has been dropped. He’s also not been used on NXT television.
