WWE Interested In Signing International Star

Bring him in. Wrestling is one of the truly international sports as several countries have not only their own wrestlers, but also their own version of wrestling. That can make for some interesting combinations, as you can see wrestlers from one country coming into another and get quite the result. That might be the case again as WWE is interested in an international star.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE is interested in signing Speedball Mike Bailey to the company. Bailey is a Canadian wrestler who has mainly wrestled in Canada and Europe for the last several years due to visa issues in America. Should WWE sign him, they would work on resolving those issues so that he could could wrestle in the United States.

Back in 2016, Bailey came into the United States and worked a show for Evolve Wrestling without having a work visa in the country. As a result, he was banned from entering the United States for five years, with the ban recently expiring. Bailey has also wrestled for PWG, WXW, CZW and Evolve. There is no word on when he would be able to debut should he sign with WWE.

You might need to get used to him. Check out Bailey in the ring:

Opinion: Bailey is a name I’ve heard of before and it is nice to see him getting a chance on the bigger stage. The visa thing was a mistake and he has been gone for a long time now, but it seems that he is talented enough for a big company to give him another chance. I’m curious to see what he can do on the bigger stage so hopefully this all works out and he can have a chance.

What do you think of Bailey? How will he do in WWE? Let us know in the comments below.
