There are a handful of names floating around that WWE is reportedly interested in signing. The first bit of information comes from Dave Meltzer in the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter (subscribe here).
According to Meltzer, WWE has made some “overtures” to Fenix and Pentagon Jr. Meltzer says that he has heard they both still have a few seasons left on their Lucha Underground deals but WWE is interested.
Meltzer also says that Rey Mysterio is close to returning to WWE. He is expected sometime after the ‘All-In’ show in September.
According to @Wrestlevotes, WWE will be putting the full court press on to try and sign Kenny Omega:
Yes. If he doesn’t sign, it won’t be WWE’s fault. Full court press coming.
