Indy Talent to WWE?

As reported by the Declaration of Independents earlier, WWE is currently very interested in a bunch of independent talents lately.

RF Video Owner, Rob Feinstein, has set up 3 calls recently with WWE Scout Tommy Dreamer. 2 of those 3 calls were directed to Jack Evans and Jay Lethal. As for the last call, many are not releasing his name due to his contract with a promotion. However, because of this, many are speculating that the talent is Alex Shelly who has a contract with TNA.

WWE is also very interested in indy superstar Super Crazy for their Cruiserweight division. Super Crazy has been noted as relucant so far as he is working with an injured hand right now that might hinder him from competing at his full potential.

One big name that sources say that WWE is very interested in is ROH Pure Wrestling Champion, John Walters. Walters has been doing many dark matches for WWE, and WWE keeps calling him back. Many believe that it won't be long before Walters signs with WWE.

Expect to see a lot more news on WWE looking for indy talents. With Mick Foley and new WWE agent Ricky Steamboat doing work with ROH, they will most likely be speaking to WWE officials on good prospects.

It is even being stated that after a match between Samoa Joe & CM Punk that went to a 60 minute draw in ROH left Foley saying his "socks were knocked off," Foley is now pitching the idea to WWE of signing both of these talents.

More on this news as it comes.
