Tyler Breeze

Breeze debuted as an enhancement talent on the June 20, 2012 episode of rebooted *NXT* show, where he went under the ring name **Mike Dalton**, teamed with CJ Parker and lost to The Ascension (Kenneth Cameron and Conor O'Brian). Dalton got his first victory when he teamed with Jason Jordan and defeated the team of Hunico and Camacho on August 1, but lost in a rematch against the two a few weeks later.

On the July 24, 2013 episode of *NXT*, Dalton re–debuted with a new heel gimmick, as **Tyler Breeze**, a narcissistic "pretty boy" obsessed with taking selfies, even during matches. Soon after, Breeze started a feud with CJ Parker, after repeatedly being "photobombed" by Parker. After the two were put in a tag team match against Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady, which they lost after Parker refused to tag in Breeze. A match between the two took place on the October 16 episode of *NXT*, which Breeze won. Two weeks later, Parker defeated Breeze in a rematch, and ended their feud.

In December, Breeze helped Bo Dallas retain the NXT Championship during a lumberjack match against Adrian Neville, which resulted a match between the two on the January 15, 2014, episode of *NXT*, where Neville was victorious. Breeze retorted later that Neville was not good-looking, mocking his nickname. The next month, in a rematch, Neville once again defeated Breeze. On February 27, 2014, at NXT Arrival, Breeze was scheduled to face Xavier Woods, but both men were attacked by Alexander Rusev, rendering the match a no contest. Throughout March, Breeze continued his feud with Woods, by attacking him before a match with Rusev, before the two faced each other in a match, which Breeze won. On the May 8 episode of *NXT*, Breeze participated in a 20-man battle royal, for a shot at the NXT Championship, and was involved in a three–way tie. As a result, Breeze faced the other two winners, Sami Zayn and Tyson Kidd in a triple–threat match on the following week, which Kidd won. On May 29, at NXT TakeOver, Breeze defeated Sami Zayn in another number one contender's match but in mid–June he suffered a broken finger, which kept him out of action for a month. Breeze returned on the July 24 episode of *NXT*, defeating Mojo Rawley and received his title match against champion Adrian Neville on the August 14 episode of *NXT*, but was unsuccessful after Kidd interfered and caused a disqualification. This led to a match between Breeze and Kidd on the following week, which Kidd won, when Breeze counted himself out. On September 11, Breeze, along with Zayn and Kidd, once again challenged unsuccessfully for the title at NXT TakeOver: Fatal 4-Way. Prior to this, Breeze made his main roster debut on the September 8 episode of *Raw*, teaming with Kidd in a match against Neville and Zayn, to hype their title match. Throughout the next months, Breeze competed in various matches, but was not involved in any feud.

On the December 18 episode of *NXT*, a cell phone vignette from Breeze aired, claiming that he was taking a short break from NXT to model overseas. He returned on the January 8, 2015 episode of *NXT*, defeating the debuting Chad Gable. On the January 21 episode of *NXT*, Breeze was defeated by Hideo Itami in a first round match of a tournament to determine the new number one contender for the NXT Championship. In a rematch at NXT TakeOver: Rival, on February 11, Itami again defeated Breeze. Breeze's rivalry with Itami continued and the two, along with Finn Bálor, were scheduled for a triple–threat number one contender's match at NXT TakeOver: Unstoppable, on May 20, however, Itami was attacked in the parking lot, and the match was turned into a one on one between Breeze and Bálor, which Bálor won. During the tapings of *NXT*, on July 16, William Regal scheduled Breeze to wrestle Jushin Thunder Liger at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn, on August 22. Breeze called himself the "Face of the Rising Sun" until Liger won. Breeze then entered the *Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic* tournament, where he was paired with Bull Dempsey. The two were eliminated from the tournament by Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano on the September 9 episode of *NXT* when Dempsey got pinned. This led to a match between the two on the September 23 episode of *NXT*, which Breeze won. On October 7, at NXT TakeOver: Respect, Breeze competed in a match against Apollo Crews, which he would lose. It would mark his final match at NXT, as Breeze was called up to the main roster after the event.
