Brandon Michael Davis (born June 17, 1991) is an American professional wrestler. He is signed to WWE, on their Raw brand. He is one of the rare occurences, where a superstar is called up to the WWE's main roster after only being a part of one fued, and holding no championships as a developmental superstar. Both are unheard of, in today's industry.

Prior to being on the WWE's main roster, Davis was a part of their developmental territory, know as NXT Wrestling. He was only there for four months before being "called up". He is known for his unorthodox style in the ring, ranging from Ju-Jitsu and Lucha libre to doing maneuvers normally only heavyweights would do.

In 2012, Davis signed a contract with WWE. He was wrestling out of a small promotion in Massillon, Ohio, and was noticed by the NXT staff on a regional house show tour. He trained for only two weeks, before making his first appearance on NXT Wrestling.

On the December 12 episode of NXT, Davis made his debut against Leo Kruger, losing in a mere two minutes. He voiced his displeasure with Kruger the following week, which led to a rematch to the two on the December 26 episode. This time, Davis was able to defeat Kruger, thus picking up his first win in NXT. The two then went into a fued, where they would interfere in each others' matches week after week. Up until the end of January, the heel Kruger would try to avoid the babyface Davis, going to extreme measures such as changing his name and wearing costumes.

At NXT's first pay-per-view event in March, Davis participated in the one-night single elimination tournament to determine the first NXT International Champion. However, he lost in the first round to Bo Dallas, after Kruger costed him yet another match. Davis realized he was out-matched by Kruger's strength and size. On the March 27 episode of NXT, Davis brought in his "enforcer," and real-life cousin CJ Fink, to match up against Kruger. The following week, Kruger attacked Davis in the backstage area, beating him with a pipe. This led to Davis being written off NXT, also leading to a fued between Fink and Kruger. In reality, Davis had been called up to WWE's main roster.

Brandon Davis only had one true fued in NXT, but wrestled almost everyone on the roster, and held no championships there.
