Although they are being advertised for the Ring of Honor TV tapings for Sinclair next month on 8/13 in Chicago, The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli are in the midst of a pre-signing procedure with WWE of getting a full phsyical and having backgrounds checked. So it would be appear they are WWE bound. As reported earlier, Hero and Castagnoli are among a group of people including Colt Cabana that have yet to sign new deals with ROH in preparation for the TV debut on Sinclair.

Update on Hero/Castagnoli and Status with ROH
July 5, 2011
Claudio Castagnoli Comments on Possibly Signing with WWE
"I think I would prefer to go as a package with Chris Hero. But I would be comfortable working there on my own. We have a the unique ability to perform in a singles environment and in a tag environment. I think we definitely have very good chemistry and we have greater potential as a team."
"I think we could survive in the right circumstances. We have the tools to flourish in any wrestling company. We both have unique abilities to talk. Both Chris (Hero) and I are both really good singles wrestlers and tag wrestlers so I think we bring a lot to the table there. And the next step is to bring in actual teams (into the WWE) and not just two singles-wrestlers coming together. That's what's missing - actual teams that look alike and seem to have been a team for a long time."

They also have offers on the table from Ring of Honor, and the company wanted all long-terms deals to be signed yesterday, so that future booking plans could be implemented. According to Dave Meltzer, it is believed the tag team did not sign with ROH, and the assumption was that they are leaning towards signing with WWE.

ROH’s Chris Hero Talks About His Global Career
From an early European debut to a recent stay at the Pro Wrestling NOAH dojo in Japan, Ring of Honor star Chris Hero’s career has taken him to all ends of the globe.
But when the 29-year-old, a recognizable face in many independent promotions in addition to ROH, made his humble debut, many didn’t expect him to find the success he’s had.
“I had only been training for a couple months actually, and I probably had no business stepping into a ring so early. As far as my training went, it wasn’t very thorough, but you know, you get an opportunity and you take it.”...More?
