3 Promotions That Should Be Scouting Emma After Leaving WWE

When Emma was released from WWE earlier this week it sparked a huge response from many fans, performers and even some owners of independent promotions across the world.

Whilst Emma’s tenure in the company was lengthy, it can be argued that she was vastly under-utilised, having only secured her first singles match on a PPV event against Asuka in the opening match of TLC.

So, now that Emma has left the big company in Connecticut, where should she ply her trade next? Well, here are the 3 companies that we believe Emma would be a good fit for.

PROGRESS

Any fans of the UK scene will of course know PROGRESS Wrestling. The upstart promotion has taken itself from humble beginnings in smaller London venues and is now on the verge of hitting Wembley Arena.

The company introduced a Women’s division earlier this year when they crowned Mae Young Classic competitor Toni Storm their first ever Women’s Champion. Now, rumors of WWE and PROGRESS having a closer relationship than appears could put a dampener on this suggestion however with the rabid and passionate crowd that PROGRESS attract an underdog/under appreciated star like Emma could strive.

Match ups against the likes of Laura Di Matteo, Jinny, Session Moth Martina, Dahlia Black and the aforementioned Toni Storm are too good an opportunity to miss.

IMPACT Wrestling

Now, I can completely understand fans that will question Emma’s potential move to Impact. The company has not always portrayed their female performers in the best light however the Knockouts division once was and could again be the shining light of the promotion.

In terms of major visibility across the United States few can argue that IMPACT do not have the, albeit distant, number two slot behind WWE, with only Ring of Honor challenging them for this accolade.

If Emma wants to keep her profile on a mainstream US basis then she could consider taking a role in Florida, especially when you take into account potential visa issues and keeping her base in the United States.

Ring of Honor

Speaking of ROH…the Women of Honor division is certainly another avenue that Emma could be considering. The division is not quite as established as IMPACT’s Knockouts however a star the calibre of Emma could make her mark fairly quickly and help build upon the success that ROH have seen thus far.

Potential bouts against the likes of Deonna Purrazzo and Brandi Rhodes could lend a mainstream appeal to the Women of Honor and again help to establish the division even further.
