Keep restocking. WWE has a lot of people on its roster and that can cause some issues over time. With so many wrestlers around, the company can have some issues with giving them all something to do. It helps a lot to have so many different rosters around, with one of them being an international branch. Now the international versions is going to be getting someone fresh.

NXT UK has come a long way in its still relatively short history. The promotion has found its rhythm and now regularly puts on a pretty solid wrestling show every single week. Part of the promotion’s strength comes from the wrestlers that they have available, which come from a pretty strong roster. That roster is going to be growing soon with another star being added.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE is rumored to be signing independent UK wrestler Adam Maxted for the NXT UK brand. Maxted has wrestled for Progress, IPW: UK, Preston City Wrestling and World of Sport. In addition to his wrestling, Maxted appeared on the British reality television series Love Island. There is no word on when Maxted may debut.

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

Opinion: This is the kind of signing that can be rather interesting as Maxted is not that well known. That can make for some interesting situations as he has no expectations, meaning he can make a big impact right away. I’ve seen a bit of Maxted over the years and I can see why WWE would want to give him a chance. Maybe this works out for everyone and good for Maxted for seemingly getting a shot.
