The non-invitees that show up the ones that they say are burning out, they actually pay to go to those tryouts and get looked at. Essentially if you think you have what it takes you can pay the fee and show up for a tryout and is probably a great way to take gullible peoples money who think they actually can just walk in the door and they'll hire them straight out of the script of some wacky sports comedy.
Adam Cole is definitely one of the best young prospect talents WWE could consider, he has really good matches, can work face or heel. I would be happy to get to see him on NXT for awhile if they thought he needed to train down their long I could definitely see him holding the belt down there.

WWE need to hire Mike Bennett simply to get Maria back on my television screen each week. Good to read that JR was there for the tryouts as well, has a good eye for talent and it is a good way to use him away from the announce booth.

Lose the haircut, aviators and goatee.....then he would be good to go. i.e if he's really as good as people say he is.

Not all that familiar with the indies but he looks ridiculous.

As pretty much all the other Indy fan's in this thread have said Cole and Bennett are the two mostly likely to suceed. Cole has been tearing it up lately and at least deserves a shot.

This is an old picture actually..and it's his old CZW character.he's just trying to slander the name of another Indy "Vanilla Midget" cause he's got some personal vendetta against everyone that isn't a failed body builder or football player who doesn't have any talent at all. He's grown the beard out fully, and gotten in better shape. He's a pure talent.

Watch this match if you doubt Adam Cole's ability. Easily one of the top 5 best matches of 2012.

I know I already said this but I'll expand. Maria is a good looking girl but as a WWE diva she was useless. I don't want her back in the WWE. I'll take Bennett though. More in ring talent is a good thing.

My first post in the thread:

When you read between the lines, Tryouts are for this reason:

So big Football players show up and Vince and JR can be impressed.

Read this on lop:
We noted earlier that the recent WWE tryouts at NXT in Florida were described as extremely physical and very grueling. Besides the names already mentioned, others who participated include former WWE star Shawn "Gavin" Spears, former TNA star Jesse Neal, independent wrestler Nathan Banner and former NFL player Lorenzo Hood.

PWInsider adds that there were a lot of novice athletes there as well, ones who had contacted WWE with interest in getting signed and trained. A good number of those guys were weeded out over the weekend.

So it looks like I was partially correct in my smarkish assumption.

I don't want her to return and win the Divas title the first week, keep her in a similar role to what she is currently doing for Mike Bennett in ROH. She can be his valet and wrestle in the odd mixed tag team match and that is it.

^You said it. Maria was worse than Kelly Kelly in the ring.

He has a terrible look.

Is he a dwarf btw? If WWE bring back Max Mini and Hornswoggle I could see him fitting in that division.
