I imagine a handful of the “free agents” will end up showing up on NXT since it seems thy are not going to be part of this draft. Although it is odd that not NXT call ups are part of this year’s draft. I think Adam Cole and a handful of others have done as much in NXT as they can.
Vince decides to separate the New Day. Unbelievable. That man needs to be checked for severe CTE!!!
So if my math is correct the remaining free agents thus far are:
Mickie James
Lince Dorado
Gran Metalik
Shorty G
I imagine they will be joined by the likes of Titus O’Neil, Tamina, Akira Tozawa, and Lana (just to stick it to Miro/Rusev again).
What’s the point of this again?
Bye Tucker.
