Following the July 9 edition of WWE NXT, in which rising star Brooks Jensen faced a critical juncture in his developing career, the WWE Universe was aflutter. During an open discussion over a sit-down with NXT General Manager Ava, Jensen shared his disappointments, mistakes, and unwavering will to succeed in the very competitive business of professional wrestling.
Son of legendary wrestler Bull Buchanan, Jensen is a second-generation superstar who has struggled in NXT. He has been dealing with the breakup of his tag team and the subsequent sense of desertion lately. His future with the brand was on the line during a crucial meeting with Ava as a result of these difficulties.
Ava did not hold back during the heated argument, doubting Jensen’s devotion and criticizing his recent behavior. In an uncommon display of weakness, Jensen acknowledged that he had lost control and showed sincere regret for his actions.
Jensen admitted, “I lost my cool, and that’s on me.” “I felt like everything was falling apart, and I made bad decisions in response. However, I wish to make things right.”

In addition to the high stakes of professional wrestling, Jensen faces enormous pressure because of his family’s legacy. With Bull Buchanan as his father, the stakes are extremely high. In his talk with Ava, Jensen admitted this and stressed the importance of continuing his father’s wrestling legacy.
“My dad’s a legend, and every time I step into that ring, I’m not just fighting for myself. I’m fighting for my family name,” Jensen said, his voice filled with determination. “I know I’ve got big shoes to fill, and that’s not lost on me. I’m ready to fight for my place in NXT.”
Ava conducted the discussion with a stern yet caring demeanor. She emphasized the value of growth and resiliency in NXT and reminded Jensen that obstacles are a part of the path. In addition, she affirmed her faith in his abilities and pushed him to use his challenges as fuel for his success.
