International Crusierweights Incoming?

It sounds like WWE may be looking to expand the Cruiserweight Division with some international stars. Rockstar Spud, who was parted ways with Impact Wrestling a few weeks ago after asking for his release, is said to be on WWE’s radar. Spud has worked with PROGRESS in the past, and with the friendly relationship between the two promotions, WWE may have an easier time working with and possibly signing Spud.

Also, it appears that Hideo Itami may finally be called up to the main roster. Itami has had a rough time of it in NXT, mostly due to injuries that have kept him on the shelf for a lot of his tenure in the brand. WWE apparently has creative plans in place for Itami already, so maybe his luck will change once he hits the main roster.
