EDIT: Whoops, confused Team International with Team Rest of the World.
Rey is a US citizen, I believe, and Blue Demon has been living in Miami (according to LU).

Not the team I would'e picked for LU, would've gone with The Dream Team of Fenix, Aerostar and Drago. Or bring in Son of Havoc

If Vader hated Richochet vs Ospreay I'd advise him not to watch last night's match finish between Stuka Jr and Ultimo Guerrero

According to SuperLuchas, WWE is interested in signing Volador Jr and Rush. Also they are looking at a AAA talent but not someone that has been previously mentioned in reports.

Heard good things about Rush. As good as La Sombra? Rush is a smashmouth rudo. Less flips & grappling and more smack the shit out of you. Andrade is the more complete wrestler of the 2.

ROH is apparently in talks with CMLL, to bring one of their wrestlers to compete at a show on the 16th next month in Philly.
I'm sure we'd all love to see Kamaitachi go at it with Dragon Lee again but his injuries may prevent that.

I'm sure we'd all love to see Kamaitachi go at it with Dragon Lee again but his injuries may prevent that. About time they finally use their indirect partnership with CMLL. There are a number of mostly unknown to US fans like Titan, Stuka Jr, Puma, and Tiger who could use the exposure and ROH can do something besides NJPW USA shows.

Sam Elias? Wow. That's a name I haven't heard in forever. He got a massive push in the Pittsburgh area when he first started, almost entirely due to his family connections. (He's the brother of Corey Graves, aka Sterling James Keenan. Their dad was a successful local promoter with a fair amount of pull.) He was, in a word, terrible. Think smiling super face Bo Dallas, but with less wrestling ability. If SJK was post-Vince, pre-NWO Hulk Hogan (which is how he was treated after he left IWC in 2007), then Elias was Ed Leslie. I honestly thought he retired after his failed WWE developmental run. Going from that to CMLL is seriously impressive.

Was a fun show lastnight Team AAA Vs Zero 1 was the best match of the night would love to see a Pentagon Vs Tanaka hardcore feud IMO.
But my favourite was Darios promo lol El Jefe is just the greatest.

Flamita makes his debut in ELITE this week. Also the reason for WWE scouting Rush y Volador Jr is because the former La Sombra's strong work ethic and him putting in a good word for them when asked who he thought would be a good fit. WWE also sent a scout to Mexico last week.
