WWE continues to stockpile talent at the Performance Center.

Fightful Select also reported that WWE was in the process of signing Monster Factory Pro Wrestling Heavyweight Champion Nick Comoroto to a deal.
Wrestling Inc reports that all five talents are headed to WWE as part of the newest Performance Center signings. Canadian tag team 3.0 (Scott Parker and Shane Matthews) and Elliot Sexton are reportedly set to join them. IWS confirmed the news that 3.0 would be heading to NXT.
