- (Del Rey): In a recent interview, WWE executive Triple H hinted at NXT trainer Sara Del Rey moving to the main roster as a road agent.

"Whenever people say 'Oh, it's so great you brought in a woman to train the women,' I say 'I didn't hire a woman to train women, I hired a woman to train,'" Hunter told Vice Magazine for a recent story on Del Rey. "She's great with the women, she can relate to the women wonderfully, but she's more than that.

"It's the same when I bring her up to the main roster; I'm not doing that so she can just work with the women, I'm doing that so she can be a road agent. It's irrelevant to me that's she's a woman. What matters is that she can do her job extremely well."

Since the interview ran, sources tell PWTorch that Del Rey to the main roster as an agent/producer is in progress.

Del Rey has been working with the Women's division as well as male NXT talent at the Performance Center. She received a strong public review from Triple H in the interview profiling Del Rey's work in WWE Developmental. "You can have all the knowledge in the world, but it's useless if you can't explain it," Hunter said. "That's what makes Sara special: She can feel it, but she's also able to articulate that feeling."

Del Rey, who was trained by Daniel Bryan, talked about finding her passion for training after finishing her independent wrestling career. "Training has always been my one true passion; it's what I really love about pro wrestling. I thought I had unique experiences and perspectives to share with the women in NXT. WWE agreed, and here I am," Del Ray told Vice. [ LINK: Full Story HERE at Vice.com ]

- (NXT Tickets): WWE put tickets on-sale this weekend for the NXT Road shows this spring. Tickets for Philadelphia's Tower Theater on May 15 ranged from $45-95, reports PhillyMag.com.

PWTorch specialist Justin James noted that second-level Loge level seats were priced at $48.50, which translated to $62 after fees. The pricing reflects WWE's economic belief that high demand/interest and small supply created higher value for a Developmental show. [ Ticket Info HERE ]

- (Jasmin): New NXT signee "Jasmin" Nhooph Al-Areebi was profiled by The Whig publication. Jasmin, who is Arab-Canadian like NXT star Sami Zayn, is looking to follow the path of famous Toronto wrestlers such as Trish Stratus, Edge, and Christian. “I’m really excited to be here. I’m really excited to be the first ever Arab-Canadian WWE Diva. I think that’s really exciting and I’m real excited to bring something different," Jasmin said. [ LINK: Full Interview HERE ]
