Harry Smith to the WWE?

According to what appears to be his Myspace profile, and several wrestling websites, it looks like Harry Smith is on his way to the WWE. Harry is the 6'6" son of ex-WWE wrestler Davey Boy Smith, the former British Bulldog, and also sadly no longer with us.



I didn't know a lot about him, so I went off to see what I could find:


In New Japan vs Hiroshi Tanahashi



Hiroshi has a lot of the offense here


In Stampede vs TJ Wilson



Now this is more like it. Looks like Harry knows his suplexes and his submission holds. TJ Wilson makes him look a million bucks here


In Stampede vs El Blanco Negro Dragon



Shows how good a wrestler TJ Wilson is, lets put it like that. Worth watching if only for the impassioned plea from a clearly smashed and single canuck female halfway through


I think from these he has promise. He is only 19 as well, so with a few years he could be something very special. If as he says on Myspace, he is going straight onto Smackdown, then he *needs* to have the British Bulldog gimmick. And I would double that up, and have him tag with Paul Birchill. Would help both of them a lot. Of course this is the sensible way to get him over quickly, I suspect what will happen is that he becomes Birchill's lackey, and is named Roger the Cabin boy.
