As noted, NIL recruit Meghan Walker has officially signed with the company, and now two more athletes are joining her.
Pwinsider is reporting that WWE has signed Russian pole dancer and rhythmic gymnast Jessica Bogdanov and former Boise State running back Cyrus Habibi-Likio to Performance Center contracts. Both participated in WWE’s SummerSlam Weekend tryouts earlier this year and have reportedly agreed to developmental deals.
Bogdanov has amassed 142,000 followers on Instagram, while Habibi-Likio has 127,000. Habibi-Likio also shared a video chronicling his journey to the tryout, revealing that it began after attending WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas, where one of his posts went viral with five million views.
In October, Habibi-Likio documented additional training at the Oasis Wrestling School, where he worked with Journeyy Fatu, the brother of WWE’s Jacob Fatu.
