Former MMA Fighter Gzim Selmani Is The Newest NXT Signee

Gzim “The Albanian Psycho” Selmani is a former mixed martial artist with a 4-2 record, and he’s just been signed to WWE. He’s only 20 years old, so it’s unlikely that his body has been completely broken down from fighting, and he’s young enough to start training and not be old as dirt for his debut. Here’s Selmani in action:

Wait, no, that’s the “Albanian Assassin.” Let’s try again.

Dang it, wrong again. That was the then-13-year-old Reshat Mati, also known as the “Albanian Bear.” Third time’s the charm, right?

Okay, that’s Gzim Selmani beating up former UFC fighter, Oli Thompson. I’m no expert, but I think Selmani is more of a Vince McMahon signee instead of someone Triple H wanted, and not just because Selmani isn’t an indy wrestling darling.

I guess if Vince can’t get The Mountain, maybe he can at least get a chip off the old boulder.
