Chapter 446, digging the corner
On February 8, 2009, at 10 a.m., in the Mariners University Gymnasium, NXT was inaugurated.
It was a memorable day when FC, a joint venture between Li Tianze and Stephanie, officially changed its name to NXT, and signed an all-round contract agreement with E, and NXT replaced EC as the third brand and the only development alliance after WrestleMania 25.
At the founding ceremony of NXT, the identity of one of Li Tianze's bosses was not exposed, and Stephanie deliberately concealed his identity as a partner, just so as not to affect Li Tianze's development in E.
Li Tianze can be regarded as a hands-off shopkeeper, and the specific matters of NXT have to be handed over to the more professional Stephanie management, he only needs to give some advice and collect dividends every year.
"This is a historic moment, and when we look back ten or twenty years from now, we will be proud of the founding of NXT today, and it will become the most unique brand under the E umbrella."
Stephanie stood on the podium, and the momentum she had cultivated over the years made her angry.
"NXT will not disappoint wrestling fans around the world, it will perfectly carry on the good tradition of EC, and at the same time, it will surpass EC and let E wrestling fans have the same great wrestling show on Wednesday."
Stephanie's words are official: "NXT is committed to exciting competitions, creating wrestling technical competitions that are no less than independent competitions, and allowing E wrestling fans to experience the most exciting wrestling visual feast." ”
Stephanie was talking on stage, and Li Tianze, who was offstage, was entertaining his friends in the independent class.
AJ Styles, Zhongyi Shinsuke, Finbalor, Semoyacho and others all received Li Tianze's invitation.
"Well, the future of NXT is bright, have you ever thought about changing jobs?" Li Tianze spared no effort to poach people, NXT's opponent is not E, but the various leagues of the independent class.
Digging up people in the independent class is tantamount to hitting the opponent, and Li Tianze will not be soft.
"Styles, if you come, I promise you'll go straight to the show." Li Tianze wants to dig AJ Styles the most, although his joining may shake his position, but with him joining, the future competition will definitely become interesting.
The most perfect opponents in Li Tianze's heart are the undertaker and AJ Styles, and his idol Aji can only be ranked third.
A wrestler like AJ Styles who is famous all over the world can open the back door and skip NXT directly into E.
AJ Styles laughed: "My dream is to get a Grand Slam, and when it comes true, maybe I'll join E." ”
Grand Slam means that the Global Wrestling Federation Grand Slam, this achievement is not easy to obtain, in addition to having absolute strength, it will take more than ten years.
"You can dig and dig them, they should be interested." AJ Styles looked at Fin, Joe, Chinese medicine and others behind him.
Li Tianze looked at the others: "NXT will always welcome you to join. ”
If they join, NXT's popularity will skyrocket, and in some cases, in a short period of time, the fame of the players who have already become famous in the independent class cannot be compared.
Finbalor smiled: "I have no plans to join for the time being, maybe in two or three years, I can consider it." ”
Seeing that Li Tianze was a little disappointed, he summoned a red-haired beauty behind him, this beauty gave Li Tianze a bright feeling, it was a traditional European beauty.
"I can recommend someone to you who has always wanted to get into E, and I think she could go to NXT for two years." Fen asked the red-haired beauty behind him to stand in front of Li Tianze.
The red-haired beauty was a little shy, she secretly looked at Li Tianze, and she was extremely unconfident in front of Li Tianze.
Li Tianze is also looking at this red-haired beauty, about 168cm tall, about 55kg, the appearance is standard Nordic and European female style, and the age should be about the same as AJ.
Fen smiled: "She likes you very much, she is your little fan sister." ”
Li Tianze pretended to be surprised, and then smiled: "Yes, I didn't expect that I could actually have beautiful fans." ”
Facing Li Tianze, the red-haired beauty felt that her heart was beating faster, more than when she first met Fen.
She met Fen when she was 15 years old, and she had always liked wrestlers like Fin, but since watching Li Tianze's match, she empathized with Fen, thinking that a fighter like Li Tianze was the most perfect.
"You, hello, my name is Becky Lynch, I'm from Ireland, it's nice to meet you," the redhead beauty nervously introduced herself.
Hearing that she was from Ireland, Li Tianze turned his head to Simos and said, "Simos, your fellow countryman." ”
Simus immediately greeted Becky Lynch: "Hello. ”
Becky Lynch modestly greeted Hemos in the local Irish language, which made Heimus look very good at her.
Li Tianze continued to look at Becky Lynch and asked, "Do you want to enter NXT?" ”
Becky Lynch met Finbarol at the age of 15 and has fallen in love with wrestling ever since, somewhat similar to Alexabliss meeting Lee. The only difference is that as she gets older, Becky Lynch finds herself only adoring Fin, not liking it, just like her sister adoring her brother.
And Alexa both worships and likes Li Tianze, and almost regards Li Tianze as a god in his life, a male god.
"Yes, E is my dream, I know that I am not strong enough, so I want to enter NXT for two years." Becky Lynch stared at Li Tianze with expectant eyes, hoping to get the answer he wanted.
Li Tianze is very optimistic about Becky Lynch's appearance and figure, and Fen recommended her, which means that she must have some wrestling foundation, and if she is cultivated, she may really be able to become E's superactress.
"NXT is all about quality, training is very hard, you need to think about it." Li Tianze said solemnly, this is not playing at home.
Becky Lynch looked resolute: "I can get it, I'm not afraid of hardship or tiredness." ”
Li Tianze nodded and smiled: "Congratulations, you have become a student of NXT, and after the establishment ceremony is over, I will take you to sign up." ”
It's not Becky Lynch personally, it's Fin's face, Li Tianze will let her enter NXT, hoping that she can surprise herself in the future.
After finishing the matter of Becky Lynch, Li Tianze looked at Zhongyi Zhenfu and Samoa Qiao: "Are you two interested in joining NXT?" ”
Nakayi Shinsuke couldn't understand English, so AJ Styles translated for him.
"Zhongyi's attitude is the same as Fen's, and he plans to join NXT in two years." AJ Styles translated.
Li Tianze sighed regretfully.
AJ Styles said: "Zhongyi asked you if you are interested in going to Xinri to develop, HHH got a big contract in Xinri Wrestling. ”
Li Tianze couldn't help but be stunned, this guy actually dug himself in turn.
"No, I still like E." Li Tianze declined, and then looked at Samoa Joe: "Punk, Daniel, they are all in E, have you considered changing jobs?" ”
Samoa Joe has nothing to do with the Samoa family, it's just called this, he pondered for a moment and said, "When my contract ends, I will consider it." ”
Finally, there is good news, Joe's meaning is obvious, when his current contract ends, he will contact Li Tianze, after all, E is the right way.
"I'm waiting for your news." Li Tianze knows that Joe's contract is only about a year, and if nothing else, he can join his NXT early tomorrow.
At this point, Stephanie's speech ended, and NXT was announced in her last sentence, and it will take time to prove whether NXT, which symbolizes E's future, can bring something different to E.
Li Tianze firmly believes that NXT will definitely change E.
