"We are thrilled about adding another Japanese talent to our developmental roster and look forward to his speedy and successful development," WWE Japan executive Ed Wells stated in an AP story. Apparently, he also noted that the signing is part of WWE's tradition of having a Japanese wrestler on its roster. Well, I guess that explains why Funaki has lasted so long.

Styles, and Petey Williams were interviewed on the WrestleCast podcast. The headline teases a meeting Joe had with WWE's Umaga.
