Brogan Finlay's WWE in-ring debut saw him share the ring with another multi-generational Superstar this week.

Finlaym the brother of New Japan's David Finlay, signed with WWE in December of last year. He has been competing since 2021 and has worked for GCW, New Japan, Wrestling Revolver, Black Label Pro, and Blitzkrieg! Pro to name just a few companies.

At last night's WWE NXT event in Tampa, Florida, Finlay added WWE to the list of promotions he has worked for. In his in-ring debut, he faced Charlie Dempsey. Unfortunately for Finlay, it was the No Quarter Catch Crew member who got the win.

It's fitting that Finlay faced Dempsey in his WWE NXT debut, as the pair's fathers also had some wars in the ring. Fit Finlay and William Regal feuded in WCW, with Finlay making his debut in the promotion with an attack on the Blackpool brawler. Years later, the pair would be forced to face off for Finlay's U.S. title at Great American Bash 2006, after Bobby Lashley, Finlay's original opponent, failed his medical test. Finlay bested Regal at the WWE pay-per-view to retain.

On Twitter, Finlay made reference to the fact that their fathers fought in the past.
