Mickie James' WWE deal is said to be a three year contract.
Drew Gulak is 100% signed and sealed and is closing out his independents dates.
WWE is absolutely in signing mode right now. We are told that the company is working harder than ever to evaluate and watch the independent scene, to the point that WWE is now watching iPPVs and doing complete agent's reports on them (similar to reports WWE create for their own live events to track talents and how they are improving) so they can track talents from afar. I was told you can expect a lot of talent acquisitions in the first quarter of 2017.
WWE already has a new crop of talents set to report to the Performance Center on 1/3. Heidi Lovelace, Kimber Lee, Nixon Newell and Cheree Crowley (aka Evie) are all expected to be signed and reporting on that date.
There is already another Performance Center tryout week set for early February.

WWE is not fucking around. I've heard rumors online that Su Yung, Rachael Ellering and Deonna Purrazzo also have WWE contract offers. The women's division in NXt is going to be absolutely mental in a few months.
Here are a couple of matches for people not aware of each woman.

Dang, Pappa Hunter is on a signing spree right now. And these are all quite talented women as well. It be kind of hilarious if they referenced Kimber winning the CHIKARA Grand Championship by calling her a "former world champion."
Re: Heidi Lovelace, Evie, Kimber Lee and Nixon Newell Signed & Reporting to the PC Soon
Yessssss!!! I cannot wait for Evie! Tbh, im a bit sick of Heidi due to seeing her non stop @ aaw but im sure ill fall back in love with her after some time lol
Re: Heidi Lovelace, Evie, Kimber Lee and Nixon Newell Signed & Reporting to the PC Soon
I have to admit I'm glad it's finally confirmed now too. She could potentially be a Bayley-level face if they decide to go that route. I knew about her being signed about 2 or 3 months ago. What I didn't quite forsee was just how heavy they'd go on women signings in general, feeling that they'd do some temporary deals for the tournament and then go from there.
Last I heard that was up in the air and looking to be on the side of "less likely". Wonder what happened because it did sound like Io in particular was more or less confirmed a couple months ago.
Re: Heidi Lovelace, Evie, Kimber Lee and Nixon Newell Signed & Reporting to the PC Soon
I can't wait for the next IPW show (IPW is the promotion Evie started her career in for anybody who doesn't know), I bet everybody will be talking about Evie I remember after her NXT match, on her next appearance at IPW everybody chanted "NXT! NXT!" at her and she got all embarrassed and was like "oh you guys, stop!" haha.

I don't really buy into the indy killing idea. WWE can't possibly sign everyone, as much as they seem to want to. These signing prevent the indies from stagnating, and force new stars to be made (and the indies stuggle far less with this concept than WWE). Plus, indies today being a far more valid path to WWE (or elsewhere) means potentially a lot more people entering the system, knowing that not only is there probably going to contnuously be more opportunities on the indies than ever before, but also it's now a valid route to WWE.
They certainly want to kill any prospective competition ASAP though.

The first time I saw Kimber Lee live was in a gym in front of about 150 people, wrestling for CHIKARA's tag titles with Jervis Cottonbelly against The Devastation Corporation. And it was fantastic.

If anyone ever needed a new name though it was Kimber Lee. I know WWE are moving in a new direction and letting new signings retain their names frequently in recent months, but sometimes a new name is a blessing.

I actually think between these four girls Nixon Newell is the one who should get a name change. Kimber Lee is not a bad name at all imo.
