My only exposure to Stokely is in ROH. I always hear good things about him but I didn't really think much of him from his run there.

Cal Bloom would be a second generation wrestler as the son of Wayne Bloom/Beau Beverly. Cal's a good dude. Briefly trained with him. Has a lot of upside, reminds me of a young Scott Hall in terms of physical presence. Hyped for this.

Isnât Stokely exclusively a manager? Pretty interesting signing if so

Stokely is a HUGE get, it'll be interesting to see what they do with him.
And I'm very happy about Robbie E. Dude was a better Zack Ryder than Zack Ryder ever was.

There are so many wrestlers that could benefit for being paired with stokely. Brilliant signing by WWE.
Robbie E probably wonât ever be a big deal, but heâs a good hand and clearly super dedicated to the business. Love seeing him finally get picked up.

I hope this doesnât affect his upcoming world title match with Orange Cassidy at WrestleMania weekend! Seriously, Stokelyâs been killing it for a long time and his social media game is strong as hell. Great pickup. They let people finish out their commitments first

Everyone they signed recently other than ACH is crap (I assume you guys heard theyâve also signed Karen Q., Samuel Shaw, ACH, Paul Elrings daughter and a few others)

Given Ryder's "they forgot how to spell my name" thing, I would love it if Robbie E came out as Zach Ryder.

They let people finish out their commitments first I know, just wanted to remind people that was going to happen because the first one was utter greatness.

Also, for those asking if Stokely Hathaway even wrestles: yes, he does. He wrestled a lot for an Indy promotion I go to in Hamilton, Ontario. Heâs not really good or anything but he can take a bump. The last time I saw him in a match was in December against Ricky Shane Page in a no disqualification match or something and he took two sick bumps that I thought couldâve knocked him out.
He was also authority figure of the promotion at the time and I think one of the stipulations of the match was if he lost he lost all his power; so his losing the match and signing with WWE makes sense now

My head Canon is that WWE messed up in trying to sign Chuck Taylor, and ended up signing the wrong one.

Can't say I'm totally happy about Robbie...but that is for personal reasons and involved being unrepentantly rude at a show after he got "big" in TNA. Hopefully whatever attitude he had then he loses in developmental, though.

PLEASE team up Robbie E with Zack Ryder! I cannot believe this. You just created an act I actually want to see that involves Zack Ryder.

Couple of years ago, we had Neville and Aries. Now we have Gunner and Robbie E.
I kid. Good on everyone for getting a shot, I hope they do well.

The word that made the rounds on that is that he actually was in the last batch but they're holding off on announcing it for some reason. He'll be ringside at TakeOver.
