FCW Wrestlers being called up Soon

[Snitsky]

As reported over the weekend, there are four WWE developmental wrestlers in Florida Championship Wrestling that have a very good chance of being called up to the main roster in the near future. They are DH Smith, Eric Escobar (a.k.a. Eric Perez), Sheamus O'Shaunessy, and Drew McIntyre. In an update on the story, one of the four wrestlers previously named is booked to wrestle on a slate of WWE live events throughout the month May.

Sheamus O'Shaunessy has been under contract to World Wrestling Entertainment for two years, but still has yet perform in front of a live WWE crowd. However, he will finally be getting his chance as company officials have booked him to appear on their shows next month.

With his Irish roots, an obvious pairing or possible feud would be with fellow Irishman Finlay on the ECW brand. O'Shaunessy has actually acknowledged him before as he did an angle insulting him and ECW at a Florida Championship Wrestling television taping this past February

Makes sense Hornswoggle was drafted if this is true

DH Smith looks like a greedy fat kid

Drew looks like a cross between dolph ziggler and john morrison

[Sonic...SonicTruth]

Sheamus should be pretty great in WWE. Here's holding out hope.

[Joekishi]

I'm going to say that I'm still surprised that Drew hasn't been released.

Where will Drew go?

[Solid Stryk-Dizzle]

S.O.S feuding with Finlay and stealing Hornswoggle would've been great...but alas.

[Convoy]

Put Eric Escobar as Enrique Perez, Melina's brother. Have him compete as a face.

Build up the real-life relationship between Melina and Morrison, then have the guys feud over something pertaining to her. We could have some great Bret/Bulldog overtones.

The dark matches at Smackdown tapings against JWY and R-Truth don't count as performing in front of live WWE crowds?

[The Summer of Muskrat XVII]

I like DH Smith, but the kid looks recockulous always grinning like a jackass

I don't see how being booked on the house show loop counts any more as performing in front of a live crowd than a dark match does, but whatever.

[A Platypus Rave]

...DH Smith was drafted to ECW... How does that count as not getting called up already

Nah have him seduce..oh wait this is PG wwe.

Have him take her out to dinner, then not call her the next day

[Spankymac is sick of the swiss]

Great to see Drew getting called back up, because I'm a huge fan of his, but I still wish that Heath Miller, aka Sebastian Slater, was a candidate for a call up. The dude is a great talent.

[Tyfo]

It's hard to believe Eric Perez is still employed, much less about to be called up.

He's been around since at least 2005 that I can recall. They NEVER let developmental talent stick around that long without either calling them up, just giving up and bringing them in to be a jobber and then firing them, or releasing them before they get to TV.

But I'm happy he is finally on his way.

Drew!

Yeah, Perez, along with The Miz, Jesse and Festus, Khali, and MVP are the ONLY regulars from the early DSW days that are still around and kicking on the WWE scene that I regularly notice. Everyone else, like Kid Kash, Johnny Swinger, Angel Williams, Shantelle Taylor, all gone. Hopefully, Perez manages to make it a hit for himself.

[waffleofpower]

Erm...I hope they get better debuts than Colt Cabana, Sean Spears and Jay Bradley.

And Sheamus is one of the very few guys on FCW's roster that actually stands out visually.

[Haulk]

I can actually watch FCW here in FL. Sheamus is pretty decent hes like a young Finlay Drew is good, DH is better than given credit for at least technically. I was impressed with everyone on FCW actually. Its WWE is where theses youngsters dreams are crushed with pedigrees and throwbacks.

[James McCloud IS John Godot]

Go SOS! Call him up to the big leagues, WWE.

[Metalheadbanger Man]

I'm so glad they didn't flat out fire McIntyre or DH. Both are great young wrestlers.

I haven't seen as much of Escobar or SOS, but from what I have done they appear to be decent. I think SOS feuding with Finlay would be great.
