Update: Top ROH Tag-Team Headed To WWE?

Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter

Although they are being advertised for the Ring of Honor TV tapings for Sinclair next month on 8/13 in Chicago, Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli are in the midst of a pre-signing procedure with WWE. According to a source, they are getting a full physical and having their backgrounds checked. As of now, it would appear they are WWE bound as long as things go as planned.

As reported earlier, Hero and Castagnoli are among a group of people including Colt Cabana that have yet to sign new deals with ROH in preparation for the TV debut on Sinclair.

We noted earlier this afternoon here on the website that Colt Cabana has told at least one promotion he works with on a regular basis that he won’t be taking any more bookings with them after next month. He was also recently involved in an injury angle with NWA Hollywood recently as well.

This has led to some possible WWE speculation with CM Punk dropping Cabana’s name in recent weeks on television leading into Sunday’s Money in the Bank PPV (an event Cabana has stated publicly he plans to attend, although he resides in Chicago). As noted, CM Punk has been pushing WWE management to sign his good friend Colt Cabana. That’s one of the “stipulations” he wants in his new WWE contract.
