Fandango Return Update, Roderick Strong Announced As Special Guest For WWN Seminar / Tryout

June 12, 2019

Fandango Return Update

We could see Fandango back on WWE TV sooner than later as a report by PWInsider.com says he was spotted in Orlando this morning. It’s not a sure sign that he’ll appear on air, but he’s either at the WWE Performance Center, scheduled for NXT, or both.

Fandango has been sidelined since July 2018 and has remained inactive due to a torn labrum in his left shoulder. Following surgery, Fandango resumed training towards his in-ring comeback and was featured in a video update on the WWE PC YouTube channel. His Breezango partner, Tyler Breeze, also started making recent appearances for the NXT brand at live events, in addition to challenging Velveteen Dream for the NXT North American Championship at NXT TakeOver: XXV.

Roderick Strong

WWN announced NXT’s Roderick Strong will be on hand for their next seminar and tryout in Brooklyn on June 30. Applications and info are available on WWNLive.com’s Seminar/Tryout section; the event price is $199 and it is open to all wrestlers, managers and referees who have completed a reputable training course.

At least one participant from this WWN Seminar/Tryout will be picked to go to a NXT TV taping as an extra, and at least one talent will be booked on the EVOLVE card later that evening. In addition, the seminar includes a lecture from Strong, a lecture on booking and assessment of tryout matches (filmed in HD camera with footage you can distribute) from Gabe Sapolsky.
