This could be the next talented class of recruits after the 2018 signing, which featured the likes of Matt Riddle, Keith Lee, and Mia Yim. Additionally, this is the first time in two years when WWE is bringing in talent from the independent scene. It is expected that the new talents will soon begin performing at NXT and NXT UK.

This year’s recruitment is interesting to watch since WWE and AEW are aggressively trying to sign on talents featuring on each other’s shows.
If WWE does not confirm Zayne’s signing, then there is a huge possibility AEW will grasp the opportunity to offer Zayne a contract. It will not be surprising at this point considering AEW has taken on almost every pro-wrestler who has quit WWE or did not get a contract with the company.
