WWE Signs Indy Talent

aj leeAccording to the All Pro Wrestling Facebook page, WWE has signed independent wrestler Drake Younger, aka Drake Wuertz, to a developmental deal. Younger, who has worked for promotions such as CZW and PWG, is being advertised for his final APW match against Adam Thornstowe on March 15 in Daly City, California.

Was AJ Lee at Raw?

According to PWInsider.com, WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee was backstage at Raw last night, but was not used on the show. The decision not to use Lee might have been so that WWE could keep the CM Punk chants down as much as possible.

Why Did Sanada Win the X-Title?

According to F4WOnline.com, TNA will be brining back more of the high flying style X-Division matches, which is why they made the decision to have Seiya Sanada win the X-Division title at Outbreak in Japan.

Additionally, Sanada will be coming to work with TNA for a few months, so we can expect to see him as a regular on TV while he holds the X-Division championship.
