If Lucha Undergrounds current season is still going they won't be able to be on the Network show, plus I'm pretty sure they're all under multi year contracts.

i think in a LU contract you are not allowed to appear on another wrestling show that is on TV in the US. but idk if that is true because wasn't Puma apart of WK10?

Wrestle Kingdom 10 didn't get a U.S. broadcast.

oh it didn't? I thought it did

Nah it wasn't on US PPV this year.

oh i thought the word of NJPW getting a US tv deal they would have it

Yeah, just realized that the WWE:GC wont feature contracted superstars from other places.

Their U.S. TV deal is the thing on AXS which is all highlight shows.

I think Zack will be in it and Zack will be heavily protected. I think he and Marty Scurll are both future major players for WWE. Scurll could have a Brian Kendrick like run as a main eventer on the main roster.

Zack is better than Marty.

TBH, I feel Zack could be the first English World Champ.

I guess you're not counting Gary Steele, Nigel McGuinness or Magnus

Marty is more charismatic.

In WWE, Moose. In WWE.

and maybe, but Zack is a better wrestler. He can easily be Daniel Bryan V2

Zack's awesome. I went to a show in the UK, and completely forgot he was there, and marked like a lunatic when I saw him.

The competition would be a fantastic way of getting a newcomer over as well. WWE could say they signed whoever it is because of them winning the tournament (even though they'd have signed them before that, obviously).

I think Zack almost definitely has a contract with WWE or a promised contract with WWE. I know Matt Riddle is working for EVOLVE even though he's a "WWE guy." I don't know how his official contract status is worded, but EVOLVE is like a 2nd developmental for WWE.

If ZSJ is really a total free agent then why wouldn't have TNA bought him by now?

Well, he's about to become PWG World Champ, so I can't see him leaving immediately. He may do what Finn did. But Finn was a lot bigger so maybe it wouldnt be a good idea.

Idk how much PWG history you know, but Bryan Danielson became PWG World Champion on his last night. It wouldn't be totally uncharted territory.

I knew that, but I also feel like he deserves a good run to make him bigger. Maybe a run in NJPW or RoH afterwards to get him to an even higher level so he debuts in WWE with more name recognition.
