Reportedly, the company will still evaluate talent from the independents if they feel the talent is worth the time to recruit. But, the company is indeed going in a different direction. The report states that internally they are looking for larger athletes outside of wrestling circles that the company can “mold like raw clay to become WWE stars”.
