Shinsuke Nakamura's WWE Contract, More On Lucha Stars Attending WWE Tryout Camp, WWE Attendance
- WWE NXT Superstar Shinsuke Nakamura's contract expires in February of 2019. As noted, Nakamura will make his debut on April 1st at the NXT "Takeover: Dallas" event against Sami Zayn.
- We noted last week that AAA star Garza Jr., nephew to former WCW star and Mexican veteran Hector Garza, was attending a WWE tryout camp this month and would be bringing his brother with him. In a correction, his cousin Ultimo Ninja will be coming with him, not his brother. WWE has been looking for tall athletic Mexican wrestlers and Ultimo Ninja is 6 feet tall or taller.

* February 25th in Orlando for NXT drew a sellout of 400 fans
