www.wwe.com/shows/wwenxt/article/ricochet-joins-wwe-performance-center?sf179340151=1www.wwe.com/shows/wwenxt/article/war-machine-join-wwe-performance-center?sf179353735=1www.wwe.com/article/wwe-signs-candice-leraeWelp, the rumors on this one were true and CHIKARA alum, Ricochet/Helios as well as ROH alum, War Machine are headed to the Performance Center. Thoughts? What do you expect to see from each of these guys? For me, Ricochet is good... but not a game changer for the WWE. It’s the equivalent of signing Will Osprey. Too spot-monkey, but hopefully signing with the WWE/NXT will help tone that down and evolve his style some. It’s great to see War Machine signed. Raymond Rowe is awesome and Hanson compliments the team very well. Hoping to see the drop off of Heavy Machinery and FULLY expect to see Sanity called up after Royal Rumble weekend. Also, with the signings of Adam Cole and now Ricochet and War Machine... Who do you see as the biggest name not signed on the independent circuit now? Who would you like to see signed to a developmental/WWE contract next? For me, it’d have to be someone like Jeff Cobb. Something the WWE doesn’t have right now is a man that’s a powerhouse, yet has the move set that he does. Something different for the WWE audience to witness. Sure, there’s Samoa Joe... but even Joe doesn’t have the strength and agility that Cobb does.

Excellent signing as long as they have him as part of NXT and not wasted on 205 live

If he is willing to take advice from all the coaches, slow himself down, and add new aspects to his game, he'll be perfectly fine. Sky is the limit.
If he goes in thinking he knows better than everyone else, he'll fizzle out fast. But I don't expect that to be the case. He seems like he's right where he's always wanted to be. So I think he'll make the most of it.

He's amazing in the ring but does he have good mic skills?

I'm sure he'll be one hell of an addition to the NXT roster. I feel a little worried for him if he gets called up to 205 Live but who knows what will happen to that brand once 2019/2020 hits when Ricochet's NXT run ends.

The NXT Tag Divison is already bonkers and now they've added War Machine.

As I've said before I don't know much about them and a lot have said ricochet is a "spot" guy but I'll hold any judgement till I see him for myself. It seems wwe is signing everyone. Ec3, lashley and Lauren next???

I thought War Machine were already on Smackdown Live as Harper and Rowan?? The gimmick and look is almost identical.

put ricochet in a similar role as prince puma and he’ll be what sin cara could’ve been.

So hyped for War Machine. Ricochet not so much. He does nothing for me.

The NXT Tag Divison is already bonkers and now they've added War Machine. I don't think I've ever been so invested in tag team wrestling. Main brands tag scenes are also great.

Really hope they give Ricochet a mask. Prince Puma > Ricochet by a long mile, imo.

Really glad to see War Machine. Rowe is pretty great, but Hanson is a guy I was SUPER impressed with after seeing him in person. Never seen such a big guy move like that at a live show.

I'm calling it now:
We're going to have a great two or three years with then on NXT. Then Richochet will probably be shipped off to the barren wasteland that is 205 Live and War Machine will become the next comedy duo on Raw.

Ricochet has been a longtime coming, he'll thrive in NXT. Couldn't care less about War Machine.
