I wonder if WWE will encourage TNA to use these guys since its basically the development for the development now :lol
I sure fuckin hope so. There's a gap in the market for a short women's powerhouse ever since Jordynne seems to be on the way out and Zara has got the look

(WON) The idea with WWE ID program is that if any wrestler under these deals gets offered a contract by AEW, New Japan, TNA or somebody else, WWE would have a right of first refusal. At that point, WWE can either drop them or sign them to a contract and bring them to Orlando.​

Marcus Mathers is cool, a bit generic so maybe he can get some personality help

In addition to Regal, Fightful Select is reporting that Timothy Thatcher is involved in a coaching or training capacity.

It is said that some more familiar names are expected to be announced in the near future. The report also states that the ID program will extend to current talent on the indies who have been signed to major companies in the past.

The deals that are being announced this week were signed some time ago. Some of the signed talent have worked for AEW and ROH.​
