WWE has just signed indie star Brodie Lee to a developmental deal. The 6 ft 7 indie star has wrestled all over the world in a ton of promotions. He has also wrestled with a lot of the indie stars currently signed to the WWE or that are on the E's radar at the moment. Kevin Nash also speaks highly of Lee after having worked a program with him in PWO.

Lee is said to have great ring psychology and skill and does not solely rely on big man moves.

Looks like he could be a decent find, some of those spots with Cesaro were amazing. Can't wait to see him as well.

Imagine they will change his attire though, not a fan.

I'm also a bit excited cause with Lee WWE could bring back the big man gimmick. Kind of like what Kane does and Diesel did back when he was able to wrestle. Guys like Jackson and Ryan are to buff to pull of the big man and still have people like Rhodes look credible to beat them in a match. Big Show, Henry and Tensai are just monsters. Lee could be the big devastating man that smaller wrestlers still could fight on a even ground.

Brodie Lee is awesome, trust me guys. He's big, but moves around like a fuckin' cruserweight. His gimmick at Indys was a truck driver.

I've only seen a couple of his matches, and color me impressed. Agreed with Joe here, such a great big man. WWE has a money in their hands.

That explains the ring gear. I thought he was some kind of woodsman. Or a renewal of Regals mans man gimmick.

Okay I'm a little less enthusiastic now..

It also says he debuted in 07 so he hasn't had that long a career. Color me impressed for getting what he's done done in such a relatively short time.

Yeah, was quite impressed with the video, so we'll see how it goes.
