Punishment Martinez is headed to the WWE as Pwinsider.com reports that the former Ring of Honor TV Champion has signed with the company. If you recall, Martinez finished up with ROH at the TV tapings on September 29th in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Orleans Arena, which was the first batch of episodes taped since their Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view event.
Martinez was saying his goodbyes to the locker room as this was his final scheduled date for the company. It was noted at the time in reports that he opted not to sign a new deal with the promotion as he wanted to be free going forward.
Now, he is slated to start shortly at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida to begin training and eventually, be used on the NXT brand.
For years now, once Triple H signs an independent star to a developmental deal to use them on the yellow brand he would have them sitting at ringside for NXT specials. It appears that Martinez might be no different considering that the next special is coming up next month.
The NXT TakeOver: Los Angeles event takes place on Saturday, November 17, 2018 in Los Angeles, California at the Staples Center and will air on the WWE Network. It should be noted that WWE does have scheduled tapings in Winter Park, Florida booked before this show. Thus, it’s possible he makes his promotional debut before then.
