INTERNATIONAL STAR COMING IN AS TRAINER?, TAKEOVER TO BE HELD OUTDOORS?: WWE NXT NEWS AND NOTES

By Mike Johnson on 2015-08-29 09:15:00
Sarah Stock, best known domestically as Sarita in TNA, announced she was leaving CMLL in Mexico. It is believed Stock is coming in to work as a trainer with the Divas in NXT, sort of filling the role that Sara del Rey had before she was moved up to the main roster. Stock has done several stints as guest trainer and appeared as one of the models for a Tyler Breeze ring entrance. She's a hell of a talent and I was always gobsmacked that TNA didn't get more out of her.

Full Sail University is internally listing that a portion of their parking lot will be closed from 10/6-10/8. 10/7 is the next WWE NXT Takeover show featuring the finale of the Dusty Rhodes tournament, so it's conceivable they are going to try to run outdoors to accommodate more fans as they turn away a LOT for the Takeover shows these days. The other days would make sense for set-up and breakdown of any potential lighting rig and set. October would be the right time to try and pull this off, weather-wise, in Florida. We'll see if that's the case.

Greg Hamilton worked his final NXT event as host last night and will be moving up to work on the main roster live events. Hamilton did a very good job hosting the live Tough Enough tapings, getting the audience into the show before they went live. He'll still be helping out at the NXT tapings.

ROH is running Nashville on 11/20, so if NXT ends up running that weekend, there's no way that too, can be seen as a coincidence.

Vickie Guerrero was visiting at last night's NXT show in Cocoa Beach, Florida.

Team competing in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic thus far are:

*Enzo Amore & Colin Cassady.
*The Lucha Dragons.
*Samoa Joe & Fin Balor
*Rhino & Baron Corbin
*Sawyer Fulton & Angelo Dawkins
*The Ascension.
*Solomon Crowe & Neville.
*Jason Jordan & Chad Gable.
*Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa
*Bull Dempsey & Tyler Breeze.
