Roderick Strong may be on rocky ground with his Diamond Mine stablemates, but the leader tried to keep the momentum in his favor by introducing a new member, Damon Kemp.
On the May 10 episode of WWE NXT 2.0, The Creed Brothers expressed their distaste for the way Roderick Strong helped them pick up a win against the Viking Raiders at NXT Spring Breakin’, but the veteran aimed to smooth things over by presenting the new addition to the group. Kemp stepped into the picture as Roddy hyped him up and for good reason.
Kemp is actually Bobby Steveson, the brother of Gold Medalist and two-time NCAA Champion, Gable Steveson. Strong was clearly confident that Kemps’ impressive athleticism could take the Creed Brothers and Diamond Mine to the next level.

That being said, The Creed Brothers were clearly upset with Strong because they believed that any changes to the group should be a collective decision.
