– Former ROH World Tag Team Champions Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli were on hand for this week’s WWE television tapings in New York and Rhode Island. Both worked out in the ring in front of officials before each show.

Castagnoli signed a developmental contract with WWE in November 2006 but was released a short while later for reasons that have yet to be publicly disclosed.

WWE could seriously use these two for the tag division. Please bring them to WWE, Castagnoli is so under-rated and is such a great wrestler like Chris Hero. I really hope they did get a contract, the more tags the better.

The Kings of Wrestling in WWE?

Sounds like it's too good to be true.

I love these guys way to much to see them do nothing in WWE. I'd be all for it if they would do something with them but they scream two midcard singles wrestlers to me and I'd rather see them continue to give 4 star matches for ROH and CHIKARA (Claudio).

Whats ROH

It's a relaxed environment, but dude. Two words?

If I was either guy, I would gladly trade 5 star matches infront of 250-maybe 1000 fans and sell offense from a leprechaun infront of 10000 people and get better money as a result. But thats just me, if I was a wrestler I wouldn't be a mark for myself.

It was obviously a rib on Ring of Honor because they are such a non entity though i should have said whats a tag team.

Deezy if I was them I would do it too. I just hope they don't as a greedy fan, they are too talented to be wrestling 5 minute TV matches, and that's if they are lucky. And McHenry you have made a few intelligence posts so I will give you credit, but not just here but pretty much the entire Raw discussion and a few other threads too, you are kinda trolling and it's annoying as hell and I love Sarcasm and point making as much as the next guy but it's not necessary.

I would like a list of these so called trolling post that your talking about.

Are you referring to the Sin Cara thread where I said quoted for truth which is basically saying I agree with this post. Or when I was asked a question and answered it with one sentence because that was all that was required of the one question.

Or the Stone Cold GM thread where I again stated that I was in agreement with the above three posts. Or when in the same thread I asked Slim his preference to WWE or TNA which I obviously asked because he seemed like he was marking hard for TNA in the thread and expecting things from Raw in a time frame that seemed unrealistic.

Because those are the only things that could even be close to "Trolling" and only if you take them severely out of the context of whats going on around them. I've gotten nothing but praise from most people on this forum for my post. So for you to claim your going to let "this one slide" because I have made some intelligent post. I'm sorry I've annoyed you but if you think I've done anything to merit a banning or some sort of warning by all means give me one. But don't act like your gods gift to the forums and more intelligent than me you don't even know how to use it in a sentence.




This one was obviously a sarcastic one because ROH is an entity known to primarily internet smarks and this specific post is about these unknown guys coming into a division in WWE that hasn't been seen as active by most in quite some time. So it's essentially the same as me saying hey guys I'm going to LWC. And as said is obviously me ribbing on Ring of Honor fans.

LOL Nice one JMac.

I just don't see Hero fitting into a WWE landscape. Does the guy still wrestle with a freaking shirt on? Tone up and take the shirt off and it's possible. He's got a lot of talent and between them they have fantastic charisma Claudio is freaking great, Love everything about the guy. #VeryEuropean.

I'd love to see them in a WWE ring, but what does that do for them? 3/4 of a Year jobbing to a tag team of random midcarders, then get split up on the supplemental draft.

This

I'm thinking it doesn't matter who they bring in though, unless they start to actually feature tag matches, that division is deader than the X in TNA

Castagnoli is so under-rated

Castagnoli underrated?

What you been smoking bro?

That's like saying Bryan Danielson was underrated a few years back when he was ruling the indies.

Just saying, he's well known around the Indies like Austin Aries yet when it comes to WWE they don't take notice to how great their career has been.

I really want to see Castagnoli and Hero in WWE.

This could be either really good, or really bad.

For one, being a RoH fan, and loving the Kings of Wrestling, I of course want to see them in the WWE because it's the "Big Leagues" but then again, I don't want to see them buried. However, I think them just jobbing on WWE TV will get them so much exposure. I remember being iffy when the Young Bucks went to TNA, but it got them noticed, so this could work out.

I just hope it's true.

Huge news if they sign a WWE contract.

I am a tag team wrestling fan so a legitimate team like Kings of Wrestling in WWE would be a great boost to their pathetic tag team division. I mentioned in a ROH thread the other month that I was surprised these two hadn't been signed by TNA or WWE yet. They are a great team and should dominate the division if WWE sign them. I don't think that KOW have anything to lose, there is the chance that WWE could bury them but ROH would always be a fallback for them. If WWE do sign them I don't think it would be to use them as jobbers they would sign them to add strength to the tag team division. It would be a shame for ROH to lose a team like that but they have many other great teams to cover that loss.

I think they should go for it too if they are made an offer, and ROH has always been very supportive of its talent when it comes to signing with a bigger company. Prpvided they kept them as a team and made them the team to build the division around, it could work.
