Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently announced that his niece, Zoe Hines, is now a part of WWE’s developmental system and linked to WWE NXT. Linda McMahon reportedly helped finalize the chance that brought Hines into WWE’s training pipeline.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that folks inside WWE had been talking concerning the Zoe Hines situation for months before her signing became public.
Hines took part in a WWE Performance Center tryout last August, which reportedly didn’t go well. Because of this, some involved in talent evaluation were “dreading” the thought of getting to show her right into a star attributable to her political family ties.
Hines, who played softball at Boston College and in addition represented the French national team, posted batting averages of .169 and .214 in back‑to‑back collegiate seasons.
Hines is the niece of actress Cheryl Hines from Curb Your Enthusiasm and of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who’s serving as the USA Secretary of Health and Human Services within the Trump Administration. Now that her contract is official, she’s going to start full‑time training in WWE’s developmental system.
