I read that as James Ellsworth and Asuka are going to have a romance with [Kurt] Angle. That would be way better than whatever happens in reality.

Well Penta posted on his facebook that he and his brother have possibly signed with WWE.

....FFUUUCK.

According to multiple sources, WWE is interested in signing both penta the zero fear and King Phoenix. The Company's plan is to push them both as individual competitors in nxt and not as a couple. This way, pushing the Latin American market to see the product of the yellow brand.

Should WWE send penta and fenix to nxt or should they send them straight to the main roster?

May or June. It's 6 months after the TV season stops airing

It's why Ricochet was openly pissed and dissing the product during a New Japan Long Beach show, because he wasn't allowed to be on the televised AXS one because LU kept pushing back when the season was supposed to finish airing

They like Pentagon and they also watch WWE, so if he signs with WWE it will be more convenient for them to see him wrestle.

I dunno, Main Event is kind of awkward to watch. I suppose 205 is on the Network every Tuesday, though. (They were gonna put Sin Cara on there, they would 100% put Pentagon on the show)

Nope, Becky, Ronda and Ciampa basically do every reasonable variant. And god forbid we have two people use the same move. Especially two people that the company will never let do any spots together anyway.

Like, literally. Because I still don't get it. Pentagon does do an armbar normally. He won't be allowed to do a piledriver if he goes to WWE... I'm not seeing the clever joke? :confused:

It's because so many people do an armbar, I believe. Not sure though since I don't watch the product

Fenix and Pentagon tore up contracts at MLW a few days ago and Pentagon announced at PCW Ultra Friday night that he's not going anywhere.

There's also this.

Looks like wrestling twitter insiders and news reporters who have clearly lost all their sources are wrong yet again.

Oh, Strickland and ACH are also locked in with MLW.

Pentagon is like an inch shorter than Kevin Owens but 50 pounds lighter which means as soon as he starts to get fit at the performance center his peak is going to be a good 6 months in NXT and then 205 Live until the heat death of the universe. Dean Ambrose was the anomaly as far as brawler-type death-match wrestlers go. Pentagon is never going to know English well enough to thrive on the main roster, and even wrestlers that were charismatic as all hell without saying anything like Nakamura or Asuka have a very low glass ceiling compared to any other English speakers in the WWE.

What's going to work against him even harder is that anyone with any kind of hype in signing seem to flounder harder on the main roster. Hideo Itami and Almas respectively were the biggest names from their region for a long time. Itami ended up in 205 hell after a bunch of injuries that kept him from thriving in NXT and Almas floundered in NXT until finding a good manager and now his peak is probably just occasional US champion on Smackdown until they decide to split up Almas and Vega for no particular reason just like they tried to do to Ruusev when he was starting to get over (Who only saved himself from a lovely feud by marrying his valet)
