In February 2021, it was announced that Harlem Bravado had signed with WWE and would be reporting to the WWE Performance Center. On the July 2, 2021 episode of 205 Live, he made his debut under the ring name Andre Chase defeating Guru Raaj to qualify for the NXT Breakout Tournament. On the July 20 episode of NXT, he was defeated by Odyssey Jones in the first round. On the September 21 episode of NXT, Chase debuted a new heel teacher persona and began hosting a segment on the show called Andre Chase University. He began feuding with Odyssey Jones after mocking him for losing in the Breakout Tournament and costing him a match against LA Knight. Over the next few months, Chase would recruit Bodhi Hayward and Thea Hail as his new students for Chase University and would slowly turn face. On the September 20, 2022 episode of NXT, Chase and Hayward would pick up a victory over Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams. This earned Chase a North American Title match qualifier against Von Wagner on the October 4 episode of NXT but he was defeated. In November, Hayward was released from his WWE contract, thus removing him from Chase University. On the November 1 episode of NXT, Duke Hudson would join Chase University accompanying Andre Chase and Thea Hail as Chase U's flag bearer and would save Chase from an attack by Charlie Dempsey.
