- We noted a while back that top indie star Uhaa Nation was on WWE's radar and that he later impressed officials at a WWE Performance Center tryout. Other rumors said Nation was close to signing with WWE.

There were lots of rumors coming out of this weekend's Preston City Wrestling event in the UK that said Nation has signed with WWE and will be heading to the Performance Center in Orlando soon. At that PCW event, Nation defeated former WWE Superstar Chris Masters to win the PCW title. For what it's worth, talents headed to WWE usually drop their indie titles. Below is a new photo of Nation with the strap:

Uhaa's taking the title to WWE with him

Didnt Devitt win the PCW Cruiserweight Title when his WWE rumors were out and about? I dont think its THAT uncommon.

But is he good?

He's a lot like Bobby Lashley. Super athletic. Legitimately strong.

He's built like a tank and moves like a cruiserweight. You could have him against Show, and using his high-flying to win, then have him throw Tyson Kidd around.

He's like half Adrian Neville half Brock Lesnar. The dude does standing shooting star presses and shit.

Eep.

Usually those top 45 moves things are really just "chop/suplex/clothesline" and then a few cool looking moves, but I think that one's worth a watch just to see how versatile this guy is.

Honestly, he's the kind of guy that if you signed up to an e-fed with his moveset, you'd be asked to take some of the moves out to make it more realistic.

Something about him just screams "Future perennial IC champ that everyone wants pushed".

The fact that he's black so we know he'll never get a *real* push.

Gets signed as in an overtly racist African Tribesman gimmick.

Only allowed to suplex.

Fucks sake I skipped to a random part of the vid and immediately saw AR Fox sell a bicycle kick on the outside by backflipping onto the back of his own head. Fuck is wrong wit that nigga.

Holy shit. I'm already a fan.

TOO EASY

I remember when he was an IWC darling, I disliked him then too.

THe guy's freakin' agile for his body frame :o
It's like a high-flying version of Bobby Lashley.

Bobby Lashley could do some pretty athletic stuff...

I remember some of his perfect suicide dives.

Come back when Lashley does a standing SSP

I said "looks like a high flying Bobby Lashley". I don't remember seeing Lashley doing Shooting Star Press, Moonsaults, Dropkicks and 80% of the stuff that guy does Not taking credit off Bobby though, he's immensely athletic, but not as nimble and agile as this guy.

He totally could have done it.
