Several independent names are reportedly set for WWE tryouts very soon, and other names have confirmed they are going to indeed be getting official looks by the corporate. In response to Fightful Select, those names include Airica Demia, Notorious Mimi, and more.
The outlet reported in January that Demia and Mimi were set for tryouts, believed to be that month, but Fightful reported in its latest update that each are being actively recruited, with Demia reportedly set for a tryout this week.
Demia posted to X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday of last week and said she is prepared for the “opportunity of a lifetime.” The post included a photograph of an invite to a WWE tryout, and Demia tagged the “WWERecruit” account on the platform. Notorious Mimi also posted the identical invitation on Thursday to her own X account. Fellow independent talent “The Example” Ricky South posted the identical, as did The Tuckman and Scott Green, all representing Australia.
In response to Fightful, other names being considered for tryouts are Nikki Blackheart, who attended Bayley’s Lodestone seminar, Fallyn Gray, and one other name they were working to substantiate. Not one of the talent confirmed of their social media posts when the tryouts can be going down.
In the beginning of February, WWE reportedly signed the MVP of its SummerSlam tryouts, Rayne Leverkusen, after she lost the Hustle Championship and the PROGRESS Women’s title. A complete of 55 performers were assessed during Leverkusen’s tryout over the summer, but there isn’t a word on what number of will attend the most recent round of tryouts with WWE alongside Demia, Mimi, and South.
