Works well for NXT as it will give those on the fringes more exposure, so it's a bit of a win/win situation for them.

Good call and very sensible to let your development workers get reps in at indie companies that you have ties to. Seems like good business.

In general that's some great news.

"Select indies" though sounds like they'd like to have some developmental-kinda partnerships with some promotions, without making it an official thing. :hmm:

"Working Relationships" is probably what we'll hear.

Outside of ROW, not sure which ones they'll go with either. Probably smaller ones if I had to guess, don't think anyone else working for them has ties to one like Booker but idk might be forgetting someone

"BritWres The American Indie Scene is fine"

Going to be all fun and games until WWE starts strongarming indies into kicking talent from other televised promotions off their shows, all for an extra bit of money and to use Von Wagner

Yea, I didn't really find any other connections that might be really strong, other than that...depending on where Snow and WWE are with each other.
