I'd like to see Tommy on commentary more than anything. See how much he can remember.

It's important we differentiate modern jobber masked kane from original masked Kane.
I wonder if they'll bring back past guys during the draft or in the weeks to come.
Here's the "official" NXT roster as per WWE.com - some notable omissions like TM61 & Authors of Pain. Also left out people like Cathy Kelley and Greg Hamilton who are unlikely to be important enough to spend a slot on. Names in ( ) could appear as both singles guys or tag teams.
My picks are bolded.
Men:
Andrade Cien ALmas
Angelo Dawkins
Austin Aries
(Wesley Blake)
(Buddy Murphy)
(Dash Wilder)
Elias Samson
Finn Balor
Hideo Itami
(Johnny Gargano)
(Tomasso Ciampa)
Mojo Rawley
No Way Jose
Samoa Joe - Champion
Sawyer Fulton
(Scott Dawson)
Shinsuke Nakamura
Tye Dillinger
Tag teams:
American Alpha
The Revival - Champions
(Gargano & Ciampa)
(Blake & Murphy)
Women:
Alexa Bliss
Aliyah
Asuka - Champion
Bayley
Billie Kay
Carmella
Eva Marie
Liv Morgan
Mandy Rose
Nia Jax
Peyton Royce
Announcers:
Corey Graves
Tom Phillips

THE Brian Kendrick isn't on the list, is he?

I think Alexa Bliss has a better chance of getting drafted than Carmella
Though if they do split up Enzo and Cass for whatever stupid reason, I suppose it would give Enzo something to do

Have they officially signed him yet? I'm hoping he does get signed though, like Taijiri.

There's been a few CWC signings apparently but THE Brian Kendrick is never brought up in those updates.

So with the draft, WWE Games should really bring back GM mode
Oh well, aside from her and Nikki when she returns there aren't any championship worthy stars in the Women's division right now, makes sense.
Meltzer sez he isn't sure about Tajiri.
Apparently bunch of 'em are signed but told to keep their mouths shut. Reasonably sure about Metalik ("confirmed,") no other sure ones. Heard Ibushi from multiple sources but couldn't get verification.

Maybe he'll be one of the last to come around.
Both are boring, keep them together so they're not clogging up both shows.
Next year, they should have it like sym again. That was great.
ahaha

I haven't heard anything about Naito, that one is most surprising to me. We'll start to see more come out next month. September is supposedly the big month for all things nxt when it comes to signing.
Multiple people have reported on Taijiri, we'll see.

Fuck, this guy is the best thing for us right now lol!
Shit, of course I mean Ibushi instead of Naito.

BWAHHHHHHAAAAAHAHA! I'm like, I didn't even know he was on their radar or haven't heard any rumblings on that. The crazy thing about Ibushi is he gave an interview right before being signed then BAM! It all comes out.
http://enuhito.com/eng/?p=545
That's the interview
I've been usurped.
Yeah. Could be that Ibushi is kind of a carny (like his shit with the "Ibushi Pro Wrestling Research Institute," talking about having round/triangle rings and what not) so wouldn't be surprised to see him sign, especially if they have Funaki or Tozakawa helping him & others with language barriers etc.
If the rumor is true that
Daniel Bryan
Hideo Itami.
That'd be kind of reckless though as
dude's been out for over a year. also, I think he's having 2 matches in the next 3 weeks. could be cool, might end up costing his career in the long run though.

That's what I want. Adds incentive to watch both.

Meltz said he apparently could have continued fine for a couple more years but down the road who knows the toll it would take.

What if he gets another concussion in the ring and the worst actually happens?
Wwe doesn't want to be sued bit with Bella leaving I can totally see him wrestling somewhere else in the next couple years
Just give him a retirement match at WM. He's not going to die in the ring on one match.
Come on now!

I mean to be fair, we don't know what's going to happen. All reports are that they want these two shows to feel and look different. What that means in execution is anyone's guess.
You are probably right, but we'll see how it goes.

They could have paired him with Rollins to make sure it was his final match.
Triple Turnbuckle Power Bomb spot is completely safe, Jimmy.
