It is being said that the morale backstage right now in EVOLVE is said to be very high. Since Sami Zayn’s appearance, attendance being up and iPPV buys being up the roster is said to be “buzzing” about hat the new partnership between WWE and EVOLVE/WWN Live could mean. According to PWInsider.com, the deal was put together very quickly, and as of two weeks ago it wasn’t even on the table. Zayn reportedly had a great time at the events and spent a considerable amount of time signing autographs and meeting with fans.

On the The Taz Show: Bodyslams & Beyond, New Japan and Ring of Honor star AJ Styles had the following to say regarding a possible debut in WWE NXT:
“At this point in my career, I’m going to go do what’s best for my family, and I want to do what is best to provide for them. So, the business that we are in, the business could be better somewhere else, then that’s where I’m going to go, that’s what I’m going to do. So like I said, it’s a business plan. Wherever the plan takes me, that’s where I’ll go.”

Indy wrestlers Corey Hollis and John Skyler worked last night’s WWE NXT TV tapings at Full Sail University. The two teamed up to face The Mechanics in a match which will air on the November 18th edition of NXT.

The reported advice WWE’s Senior Director of Talent Development Canyon Ceman is giving wrestlers looking for a second tryout is to become an indy star first. Ceman reportedly said wrestlers have a lower chance of getting in with a second tryout, but becoming a star on their own and having fan fare could help them. WWE’s views about selecting wrestlers have changed in recent times; usually they like to find bigger athletes they can train from scratch, but are now bringing in more independent talent with experience based on recent signings.

Tommaso Ciampa, who has been working the last few set of NXT TV tapings, might have officially signed with WWE as he worked a PROGRESS Wrestling show in London and indicated that he’s signed.
Ciampa will return to PROGRESS on November 29th to face Marty Scurll, and the match storyline is that the bout is happening thanks to NXT General Manager William Regal. But F4WOnline.com is reporting that Ciampa has yet to sign a contract with WWE.
