Lexis King Asks Fans To Stop Calling Themselves 'Registered Lex Offenders'

Brian Pillman Jr made a lot of noise when he finally made his NXT debut. Those vignettes carried on for weeks, and he finally debuted a new name in NXT, as fans now know him as Lexis King. That new-found notoriety also came with an unfortunate nickname that his fans started to call themselves. 

Lexis King has addressed this matter in a recent Twitch stream while playing Runescape. Naturally, he was nice about things, but he also had to put his foot down. After all, he didn't want his fans being confused with people who have committed crimes.

In Lexis King's message to fans, he simply asked them to completely drop the name "Registered Lex Offenders." He clarified that the name is not suitable for television, and although he finds it amusing, it should be discarded.

“Yeah, the Registered Lex Offenders is a little… as much as I think it’s funny, I think that one has to die. Because you know we can’t say that on TV. It’s just a little… you know, I appreciate the creativity, guys.”

Lexis King recently competed against Carmelo Hayes at the NXT Deadline Premium Live Event. The second-generation Superstar fell short in his quest for victory, but he still thanked Hayes for the PLE rub.
