Sylvester Lefort

Straight from the nightclubs and casinos of the Riviera, this eccentric Frenchman comes from strong Italian and Greek origins. Sylvester Lefort’s hot temper makes him an unpredictable character, as well as a dangerous one. Never at a shortage of confidence, this NXT competitor has the intensity and aggression to take down any foe. Seeing himself as a universally acclaimed main attraction, Lefort lives by the motto: “I am not a big guy – but I will do some big things.”

Lefort suffered a setback at NXT TakeOver: Fatal 4-Way. There, he lost a Hair vs. Hair Match against the outspoken Enzo Amore. Rather than face the embarrassment of having his head shaved, however, Lefort ditched the scene, leaving Legionnaire partner Marcus Louis to get a bucket of hair cream dumped on his head. Lefort tried to make it up to Louis by helping him cover up his bald head, but when Lefort accidentally pulled his partner's wig off during a match, Louis exploded. A furious Louis brutally attacked Lefort, slamming his head into the steel entrance ramp and seemingly putting an end to the Legionnaires.
