Josh Bredl, who was crowned the winner of Tough Enough in August to earn a one-year, $250,000 developmental contract with WWE, revealed his new ring name at the December 3, 2015 NXT live event in Orlando, Florida.

During an in-ring interview with Dasha Fuentes, Bredl said his name was Bronson Mathews.

While he prepares for his in-ring debut, Mathews sporadically appears at non-televised NXT events in Florida to speak to the crowd.
