3) Angel Garza Working As Both A Heel & Babyface
Angel Garza made his debut on RAW recently with Zelina Vega as his manager. Based on his two appearances so far, he is clearly being booked as a heel.
According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Garza is still being booked as a babyface at NXT live events:
I don’t know if you know this or not, by the way, he was wrestling in all the NXT shows this weekend, Angel Garza, and he was a complete babyface every night.
My Take:
- This definitely seems odd. Maybe it is a hint that Garza will be going right back to NXT after Andrade returns from his suspension. As a result, they aren’t committing to anything for his character.
2) The Backstage Reaction To WWE Signing The Rock’s Daughter
It was announced recently that Simone Johnson had signed a contract with WWE. For those who don’t know, Simone is the daughter of The Rock.
According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select, there seems to be a lot of positivity in WWE about Simone’s attitude and willingness to learn:
“It’s well known that she’d been there off and on for the last couple of years. Whenever Fightful would ask people at the WWE PC, they said that she was easy to deal with, grounded, and eager to learn and open to instruction. Triple H also told me last year that she had “the bug” for the business of wrestling,”
My Take:
- Great to hear that she is fitting in well. I am definitely excited to watch her career development.
