WWE Very High on ‘Technical’ 2nd Generation Star, Possible Plans

WWE officials are very high on the in-ring work of developmental second-generation talent Richie Steamboat, based on reports from various agents at FCW and tapes they have seen of him.

It’s said that the one thing Steamboat may have working against him is his look but the same source who reports that says that officials are so high on his in-ring work that it might not matter.

There has been at least some discussion on bringing Steamboat up to the main roster in the next few months and pushing him as WWE’s top technical wrestler.

Richie Steamboat's situation is pretty much similar to Daniel Bryan's in my opinion. Bryan isn't the flashiest but he's by far the best damn technical wrestler they have on the roster and it's now to the point that in the eyes of Vince McMahon, Bryan's a more credible worker than somebody like John Morrison who's more charismatic and more flashy.

I'm really hoping Richie Steamboat will get that push. I think the recent few months have started a new trend now with Vince McMahon realizing that it's not only about how you look but also how you can work in the ring.

Richie Steamboat vs Daniel Bryan sometime in the near future, anyone?

Sweet, looks like I definitely have to check out Richie Steamboat when he starts appearing on WWE television. Looking forward to seeing him in action now.
