The WWE roster is stacked so it’s getting harder for talent to stand out from the rest of the pack.

There was some concern that Andrade “Cien” Almas would get treated like some of the other wrestlers that moved up from NXT but it looks like there is some hope for him.

PWInsider reports that Almas received a lot of praise after his match with AJ Styles last week and there has been talk about giving him a push. That is great to hear because he has turned a corner since Zelina Vega was added as his business manager last year.

Almas wasn’t clicking with the fans when he was a babyface but things turned around for him in NXT when he was paired with Vega. He ultimately won the NXT Championship and became one of the top heels on the brand.

It looks like Vince McMahon is a fan so it looks less likely that we’ll see him demoted to the bottom of the card like they’ve done with Bobby Roode on Raw. A few weeks ago we were told that McMahon was also a fan of Almas’ look and sees potential in him as his next big Latino star, something he has been looking for since Rey Mysterio left the company. He is also said to be impressed with Vega’s confidence on the mic and at ringside. The belief within WWE is that Vega will eventually wrestle (she wrestled regularly before joining WWE) and she has potential to be one of their top female stars.

Well deserved, him and Zelina are money.

That big push followed by not appearing on TV for months afterwards.

:snoop:


This is why I said put all singles heavyweight men and 4 singles titles on RAW. One Super Division.

You can go down the list of guys who would be better off today having been worked up through the ranks.

Vince is gonna do it to Almas like he did to Jinder. And before you know it, he's gonna do it to Velveteen.

Gonna be his new Alberto Del Rio I guess :yeshrug: could go in the positive route or they'll do what they usually do to NXT talent and have him split up Zelina or some shyt :francis:

We'll see what happens, could give a Jinder type of push next year BUT actually build him up for main title and have him headline a special show in Mexico as the champ:manny: or he actually gets the Jinder push...loses the title and becomes a :mjpls: comedy act in the next 14 months
