With this level of facility, I wonder how much more it's going to help the developmental talent. I mean, now they pretty much have no excuse because they have everything they need there.

I wanna be a WWE Superstar can you image me on YOUR tv screens I think I would make a Great WWE Superstar.

LOL DL.

And I agree Serial this stuff should make it so talent don't have much to complain about. They need to step up or they probably will get the boot!

It looks really nice.
