3) Another Member Of Retribution Possibly Revealed
According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Mia Yim was one of the people involved in Retribution’s attack on Rey Mysterio and Dominik on RAW.
Mia also lost on this week’s episode of NXT, which has increased the speculation that she will be revealed as a member of Retribution:
“Mia Yim was one of the people running in on Monday night as part of Retribution. That doesn’t necessarily mean she’s gonna be there [permanently] as Retribution. When I saw this match, especially since Mia has been a babyface the whole time, it was like ok Shotzi is gonna probably win because Mia is probably leaving and I don’t know that to be the case and that is just speculation but it did work out that way that Shotzi won the match because I knew she was on the way up and they probably weren’t going to beat her. Mia is ready for the main roster, she can go on the main roster. It’s not like she needs more seasoning or anything, she’s ready.”
My Take:
- Mia does seem like someone who is ready for the main roster. I don’t ever see her winning the NXT Title, so this could be the best thing for her.
2) Nigel McGuinness’ Status
Wade Barrett appeared on the NXT commentary team this week. It was also announced that he will be doing commentary again next week. This has led to some fans wondering about the status of Nigel McGuinness in WWE.
According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, Nigel is still with the company and hasn’t been let go:
For those who have asked about Nigel McGuinness since Barrett’s response, we are told he is still officially with WWE.
My Take:
- I am a big fan of Nigel and hope that WWE finds a way to use him. Let’s hope that he hasn’t gotten completely pushed to the side.
