And it's really nice seeing folks that aren't huge names in there. BT Gunn and Stevie Boy have both been highlights of any ICW show I've seen and Marius Al-Ani really impressed me at wXw's 16 Carat Gold this year.

Yeah Im so glad it's not just the progress crew, there's guys there from dragon pro in Newport, which no one ever has heard of and lots of attack pro and fcp in there

The attack pro guys (mark/pete/tyler) have clearly been putting a good word in

I'm in two minds about Travis Banks. If he gets signed now I think he'll fade into obscurity. But if he sticks to the indies for at least a year I think he'll be a huuge deal.
He has really benefited from the hole the original WWEUK guys left in the indie scene.

He's in the same boat as TK and Dahlia, his UK visa runs out soon so he absolutely needs to get poo poo done now

It's a loooong way to travel from NZ if you're an indie wrestler and the scene over there isn't great

drat didn't know this. I wish him the best then he's got talent for days he'd thrive in NXT if given the chance. Got his character and ring work down. He's in a similar boat to Pete Dunne imo.
Gonna need to get a shirt and a pic with him before he goes.

He came over a few months after they did so he's not disappearing next week or anything, but yes you really should

Of the ones I've seen mentioned I'd put Travis Banks above the rest. He's the finished article. Top prospects I'd say Marius Al-Ani and TK Cooper.

I just can't see Brookes and Webster getting signed. They're both good wrestlers, and very smart and inventive about the business, but they really have genetics against them. Brookes is like 6' 4, but he's rail thin. Webster is announced at 160 lbs, and that's with not being in great shape...

Jurn Simmons is an interesting case. He's a giant in indie terms, but wouldn't stand out at all in WWE. He doesn't have a great body and his wrestling is fairly average. Of the WXW lads I'd certainly pick Marius over him.
