UPDATE: There has been a lot of discussion backstage in Ring of Honor as to WWE expressing interest in the Briscoes.
As you may recall, WWE was previously said to be interested in them back around when Jay Briscoe first won the ROH World Title in May of 2013, but Briscoe’s controversial comments about marriage equality put an end to that at the time.
ORIGINAL: WWE officials are looking at offering contracts to several ROH talents. The company is waiting for the contracts of those talents to expire so that they can begin talks.
The idea behind NXT has changed from training new talents from the bottom to the man roster, to bringing in top names for the NXT brand itself. The plan would be to replace some of the top indie stars who can already work good matches with more indie stars.
