WSU: Present & Future Stars
Like Lt. Columbo, Ed Darcey has "just one more thing" to say (and show us) regarding last week's WSU wrestling events...
While it is obvious that I'm an Amber O'Neal fan (and make no apologies for being one) I am also a fan of WSU. I appreciate their mix of established talented names...some of whom that seemed to have been forgotten by other women's promotions (eg. April Hunter, Traci Brooks, Angel Orsini, Jazz); women who have been featured but whose potential has not been fully explored by other promotions (eg. Mercedes Martinez, Rain, Amber O'Neal, Nikki Roxx); and up-and-coming new stars.
That's what I think WSU should be lauded for, maybe the most. This organization doesn't have new talent relegated to pre-shows or dark matches. These wrestlers are featured as what they are: stars of the future! As with Brooke Carter/Brittney Savage, Ms. April and, to a lesser extent, Alexa, a star may have been introduced this weekend: Niya. While her previous involvement with WSU was a rather perfunctory match for Evolve vs. Mercedes, she was most impressive in her NWS/WSU debut. She was quite adept at flying around the ring and seemed utterly fearless. While she and her partner were eliminated by the more seasoned pros, Jana and Nicky Oceans, she thrilled the audience with her audacious moves. This young women would seem to have a real bright future in this business.
