Developmental to implement Talent Review system

[Stopspot]

WWE posted a new job listing Friday for a Performance Center General Manager.
The job listing also includes more details on the Performance Center. WWE plans to launch a “Talent Review System” later this year, which the GM would oversee.
“The new Performance Center will give WWE the ability to train more potential performers than ever before through a comprehensive program including in-ring training, physical preparedness, and character development.”
“Supervise the development and manage the day-to-day process of WWE’s Talent Review System that will be implemented in late 2013. The overall review process will entail working with senior leaders from Stamford and the WWE Performance Center on the execution of this bi-annual program focused on accelerating the development of our Orlando-based Superstars.”
Currently new talents stay in developmental until one of two things happens, WWE finds a spot for them on the main roster or they are released from the company. The indefiniteness of developmental appears to be changing later this year.
The job listing also notes that talent will have access to money management, media training, and wellness education as part of the Talent Relations program.

This is smart if you ask me. It will help NXT talent find out more clearly what it is that they need to work on to improve. It will also streamline the process of seeing what to do with talent instead of some guys being dead weight for a long time waiting for an opening.

Now if they did this with current guys on the roster I wonder how bad some of them would rate.

So there's going to be a guy who will judge every talent based on their development in the ring, on the mic, working on their "intangibles", etc... Sounds like a fantastic idea. Have you submitted your application yet?

Vince isn't returning my calls :sad:
gonna try Dusty instead. Talk about hard times and such.

Pros and cons to both. Whilst it offers more specifics and better advice perhaps, it also relies on one persons opinion. I think RAW is a great piece of evidence that backs up one man having too much control can ruin the show, and talent.

Meh. I'm more in favor of returning to old school wrestling roots. Can you imagine what a promoter in the 80s or 90s would have said if you were like "Hey, we are creating this talent review system to help us....". No thanks. It isn't necessary.

Not sure of how much impact this person will have on the show itself since he/she is going to be part of the training facility.
But I see where Crayo and Dolph's are coming from with the cons.
