(BP) Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 The rumor is he gets to keep Samoa Joe. I think he's in a much better position to have a good run now than he would have if he'd signed 10 years. The climate in WWE has changed a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I feel like some of you guys haven't watched his recent ROH matches against Kyle O'Reilly and Jay Briscoe. He's been looking awesome recently, regardless of his weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Did anyone really expect Joe to get his shot in WWE and not be in great shape, for a large Samoan? He's not Chris Hero or Braden Walker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been looking awesome recently, regardless of his weight. I last watched a Samoa Joe match in 2004. I'm pretty excited for him to do some stuff, actually.

RIPPA Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 WWE officially announced that Jason Albert had the interim tag removed and that is now the head trainer (or Head Coach as they call it) Sara Del Ray was promoted to be Assistant Head Coach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 Oh also - on the Triple H conference call he said the touring goal is for two different tours. The "A" Towns would be the "known" NXT (ie the ones on TV) folks going around the country The "B" Towns would be the Florida house shows and would be the newer development folks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brysynner Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 So Sara Amato is currently in the highest position in WWE than any female who's last name isn't McMahon in terms of how important she is to the company and product? Especially now that she's going to be working with the main roster divas and being a producer for RAW and Smackdown. I can't think of anyone that was employed by WWE who had any type of major influence off the top of my head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Del Rey is also being given some duties as agent. EDIT: I see that's been noted already, my bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godfrey Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Trips said there were no plans to run all ladies special which got me thinking. I'm not saying they should, but could NXT support two one hour shows, one for each gender? I know NXT: Dudes would be fine but is the roster deep enough for an NXT: Chicks?

Ace Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Not really. They've only got 7 women (Charlotte, Sasha Banks, Bayley, Becky Lynch, Alexa Bliss, Carmella, and Dana Brooke) on the televised roster, plus guest appearances by Leva Bates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mco543 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 No way. I'm guessing the big 4 will all be up on the main roster by early next year and that would leave them with Alexa, Dana Brooke, Carmela, the 2 Australians, and whoever else they haven't gotten TV ready yet. Right now with all of them there they don't have enough to run a one-off special much less a weekly program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 maybe in a year or 2, not now. They've built up about 5 really credible women in the past year and a half and you got Emma back for now. Dana Brooke and Alexis should be up to the next level in time. The fact that you have to Womens matches on the NXT specail says alot one is a semi-Main or Main event the other is a nicely built tag match.

JonnyLaw Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I think an all woman's show would have to include main roster divas, which honestly wouldn't be the worst thing. There are plenty of people they are rarely using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godfrey Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Yeah, in this scenario I imagined there would be a lot of WWE Divas putting in some time in NXT. Outside of the Bellas/Naomi and Tamina deal, I haven't seen much of them in a while. The occasional match on Main Event is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the roster that has actually debuted in the ring on NXT, no. If they brought up women still in developmental and who have just been doing announcing/interview duties, yes.
