- According to Wrestling Observer Radio (via WrestleZone), WWE and Triple H are looking to sign NFL players, specifically ones with more name value than those the company has previously signed. The feeling is that to secure the bigger names that the company will have to make them much higher money offers than those of other developmental talents.
On last week's WWE conference call, Triple H noted that he and the WWE will take talent wherever it came from (NFL, Independents, Internationally) because talent is talent, and good is good.

They actually had some nice people on the WWE that had Football background. Brock Lesnar, Bill Goldberg, Marcus Cor Von, The Rock.
But, indeed, the best one was Steve McMichael :V

What good is hiring "bigger names" when they're going to re-brand said names anyway?

He mentioned WWE. The less is said about Dr Death's time in WWE, the better.

Guys that need 22 seconds to be knocked out by a Belarusian fighter in an MMA fight should never be more mentioned than Chris Benoit.

Dr Death was one of the best at the art form known as "going to Japan in the 80's/90's, stiffing the fuck out of everybody and dropping mother fuckers on their heads". Maybe not as good as Vader, but the man was a beast. A hell of a lot better than Goldberg and Cor Von especially.

Would be funny if you asked for Steph, given she's a talent too

Me too, but KENTA is more than just a name. The article implied they wanted to hire football players for their name value.
