Hideo Itami's WWE NXT career is reportedly on the fast track while Troy McClain's is over.
Itami is among the prospects at WWE developmental who likely won't be wrestling at Full Sail University for long. With as much fanfare and momentum as he has come in with, it's not surprising to hear word of him being in line to head to the major leagues.
As for McClain, his story has the opposite arc. He is one of the prospects WWE recently let go.
In other news, a new live special is reportedly on its way, a trio of NXT stars stayed on the bench at Raw and there is now word on what inspired Itami's ring name.
