WWE interested in signing El Generico?

[Jmare007]

I hear the Torch and pwinsider are confirming it also. Supposedly not the last big signing they're going to make.

Okada?

He was in TNA for 1-2 years but I have no idea if he was with Joe (I don't watch TNA). He's one of the biggest stars in Japan right now after a very successful push in 2012.

HHH has been the best thing to happen to the WWE in years.

Dude is a student of the game and he's making the talent acquisitions most of us would make if given the keys.

Still want to see Eddie Edwards

As noted before, WWE has signed El Generico to a developmental deal. One of the main reasons they wanted him is because he speaks a number of different languages. The feeling is that will come in handy as an asset for international markets. Generico has canceled some indy events and will likely be headed to developmental soon. There's a feeling among some within WWE that he will no longer wrestler under a mask but that's not confirmed.

Generico's signing is said to be part of a bigger plan as WWE has a number of indy stars on their radar that they want to lock into deals. Word is that this is a Triple H move and more signings are coming.

Two of those potential signings are Adam Cole and Sami Callihan. Both of them have tryouts with WWE scheduled between now and the end of January.

The success of guys like Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins in mainly CM Punk and Daniel Bryan has caused a different feeling within WWE when it comes to talent coming up through the indies, and also talent that doesn't have the look, size and physique that used to be the first thing WWE looked for.

Changing his character and unmasking him would be a huge waste of time and money. Just change his name and his mask so you can have the rights to them and be done with it.

Guess this means I'll be watching his final match in PWG this saturday. Should be a good show with him and Steen teaming up one final time. They definitely needed to keep his Bouncing Souls intro, a must.

Not gonna spoil PWG results but:

Steen almost cries during post-match promo, locker room comes out to say goodbye to Generico. He said if worse comes to worst, he will come back to PWG.

Don't fukk it up E'
