PLANS IN PLACE FOR WWE DEVELOPMENTAL IN STAMFORD, CT

In the latest on the WWE developmental system, sources are confirming that the company intends to open up something related to developmental in Stamford, CT in the next few months and that they are far enough along in the process that they have someone in mind to head it up.

The idea would be to have a small group of wrestlers working directly with the company to prep them for their TV debut. One idea is to integrate it with their latest production facility so everything is under one roof. One source claimed the idea would be to provide a "middle ground" between developmental and TV so performers have a better chance of connecting with the audience once they debut.

With that said, sources continue to claim there are no plans to shut down FCW, citing that just within the last week they were discussing new potential locations in FL to shoot TV. 

The company was extremely angry about reports of FCW closing, which is what sparked Triple H's comments on the WWE website. The FCW closing reports had several officials "furious" according to one person I spoke to this morning.
