ROH went with McGuinness and Williams because of their pure abilities, ROH and CZW went with Fleisch because of his insane spots, CZW with Storm to have an all British fight with Fleisch. TNA brought a few of NWA UK's workers for Team GB in the International Cup tournment thing they have occasionally, I remember seeing Storm get squashed by Teddy Hart in one of those matches 
errrm yeah just rambling about UK related stuff. Get yourself over to the US and do us proud Dave. |
This is the first time I can think of when the WWE actually brought over a guy themselves, Regal was via WCW and Bulldog and Dynmaite were via Stampede.
That Storm/Hart match was pretty good IMO, but was for some international super x cup tournement thing.
The NWA UK team sucked big time, was only used once and didn't involve Storm or anyone i mentioned already, I think Frankie Sloan was in there and Harry Smith? But they are the only one's I can think of.
On a side note, after watching Smith work a couple of matches, thus far i've been unimpressed, i didn't include him on the list as he's US breed and seems to suck.
