WWE continues to add to its organizational depth, signing Northeast U.S. indie standout Christian Casanova to be part of a future Performance Center class.

Fightful Select was the first to report the news with our website independently verifying it. It’s unknown when he will officially start.

The 5’10” Framingham, Massachusetts, native went pro in 2014 and eventually made a name for himself working for Northeast Wrestling, Beyond Wrestling, GCW, and Limitless Wrestling against the likes of August Grey, ACH, Flip Gordon, Myron Reed, Top Flight, JD Drake and others. He currently holds both the Limitless and Northeast Wrestling championships.

WWE recently signed former University of Central Florida football standout Parker Boudreaux for a future class while Paul “HHH” Levesque mentioned Rick Steiner’s son and former college football player Bronson Rechsteiner has also been working out at the PC. Levesque also said one of the upcoming classes will feature the most female talents in one class they have ever had.

For the first time since July, Josh Nason’s Punch-Out has returned and with good reason: an interview with someone I think is going to be a name wrestling fans will become very familiar with soon: Christian Casanova.

The Massachusetts native has already made a name for himself working for Northeast Wrestling, Beyond Wrestling, GCW, and Limitless Wrestling against the likes of August Grey, ACH, Flip Gordon, Myron Reed, and more. To me and others, he is on the doorstep of getting a big opportunity to impress larger audiences. It’s only a matter of time and the right opportunity.

In this 30 minute talk, we discuss his background, the decision making process when presented with those big opportunities, what he’s learned during the pandemic and the year that has been 2020, and plenty more.

After the interview, I address the dastardly Rocky Romero’s highly inflammatory comments toward me on Tuesday’s Wrestling Observer Live.
