The gimmick of a Gamestop stock holder who bought at the wrong time but won't cut bait so they have to wrestle to make ends meat.

I find it funny people think it's Tessa just because there are diamonds in the logo. It obviously was for some sort of MMA group or tag team. Even in the logo there are two taped fists in it on each side. Also Diamond Mine would be a really weird name for a singular wrestler.

With all the brands/shows even just NXT has I'm surprised they haven't done a faux MMA show yet like Bloodsport. Obviously it wouldn't happen on the main roster because as Raw Underground shows Vince still thinks MMA is effectively just Battle of the Tough Guys from No Holds Barred.

That's what everything in the vignette was. There also was both women and men training. Looks like it's going to be a mixed gender group of MMA fighters although I can't think of many people off the top of my head who are employed other then the two MMA Horsewomen hang arounds who I'm sure will involved. They haven't been seen in quite a while and both avoided the recent spring cleaning (although NXT was completely spared of that) so I'm guessing they must have some sort of plan in place for them as usually two women in their mid 30's who haven't shown much progress in ring would be easy cut bait. Ronda isn't around anymore and with her being pregnant isn't coming back anytime soon so it's like they have to worry about appeasing her or anything. However back to Tessa unless she's being made into a MMA fighter which is highly unlikely I'm pretty certain this has absolutely nothing to do with her.

I wouldn't be surprised if they're bringing Duke and Shafir back (even though both were still pretty green the last time I saw them), but Marina WAS in that segment where Roddy told Regal he was leaving NXT. Might've just been there for support, though.

Not every new wrestler should go through NXT.
That’s one of the main reasons the main rosters are stale, and They are woman’s divisions are terrible.
Then by the time some of these NXT people are called up they’ve lost some other magic that got them over in the first place.
I would have put Tessa and Taya on the main roster. Tessa might need a trial period. But the idea of Miz, Morrison and their wife’s could the main rosters version of the way, I might actually tolerate the Miz.

I suspect this is WWE's foray into the MMA market. It'll be a separate show soooo...new content for one of the networks, perhaps?

It’s just basically gonna be a MMA fight camp stable, based on the vignette.

It’s just basically gonna be a MMA fight camp stable, based on the vignette. Which is something they've tried on and off over the years on the Florida loop. Remember Shoot Nation? Chad Gable, Jason Jordan, Angelo Dawkins, Tucker Knight and Sawyer Fulton as a stable of amateur wrestling guys that eventually got to TV as American Alpha with just Gable and Jordan as a tag team, while Dawkins, Knight and Fulton were stuck in enhancement roles until other gimmicks came along.

Might've just been there for support, though. Jessamyn Duke has actually joined the creative team as Digital Content Advisor, which puts her in oversight of all the stuff like UpUpDownDown and other superstar led channels. So she may be out of active wrestling all together.

So at some point while someone was charging their phone, it got revealed that apparently this is debuting next week.
