Update on Ricardo Rodriguez's NXT Status

Ricardo Rodriguez has been working down in NXT as El Local as of late, and he has been tagging with Kalisto. The team appears to have been dropped, however, as Kalisto tagged with Sin Cara at the last set of NXT tapings as opposed to El Local.

Ricardo has been working in somewhat of a trainer capacity down in NXT, working with some of the developmental Divas.
