The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that Bob Sapp is close to reaching a deal with World Wrestling Entertainment.

Unfortunately for those interested in seeing Sapp on WWE television, the deal being talked about only involves appearances during Japan house show events in February.

WWE has lost some bankability with the Japanese audience�"its presence no longer guarantees a sellout�"and wants to bolster its cards with a proven Japanese draw.

Negotiations to bring Sapp to WWE on a full-time basis have not advanced.

So he's not going to TNA, and if WWE, not on TV, at least for now. Oh well, havent even heard of the guy till about a month ago. Thoughts?

Bob Sapp career goes long before that. In fact, WWE tried to sign him before. I think he won a PWI award, if I am not mistaken, something like Performer who carried his company.

Besides, they are signing him only to the Japan shows, because he is a draw there. Maybe after it we will see. I think he will be like Lashley, you know, only that with charisma
