Professional wrestling career

Early career (2005–2013)

Vierge was trained by Darren Burridge.[citation needed] He debuted on December 17, 2005 for Irish Whip Wrestling working as Pierre Marceau.[citation needed]

hair removal cream.[15][16] Louis initially persisted in his alliance with Lefort, hiding his lack of hair with headgear and a wig, only to lose to Amore in a singles match on the 25 September episode of NXT when his baldness was exposed.[17] On the 16 October episode of NXT, Lefort accidentally knocked off Louis' wig, this led to Louis snapping and attacking Lefort.[18] On the 30 October 2014 episode of NXT, Louis' character, now without entrance music, began screaming "You did this to me!" This coincided with Louis defeating Lefort in a singles match.[19] This storyline led to Louis' character turning crazy,[20] being described as a "baldy Kane version 2.0" by the Pro Wrestling Torch Newsletter.[21]

the Vaudevillains.[25][26] On the 12 August 2015 episode of NXT, Louis lost to NXT Champion Finn Bálor in a non-title match.[27]
