PWInsider reports that WWE has signed a new athlete to a contract. Elly Finch, a former Michigan State Track and Field star, has reportedly signed a WWE developmental deal.
PWInsider also notes that Finch will be part of the upcoming WWE NXT Performance Center Class. The athlete also played Varsity football for Royal Oak High School in Michigan, becoming the first girl to do so as part of the 2023 graduating class. She played tackle, left guard, and middle linebacker for the team.
Finch reportedly took part in a WWE tryout session in Orlando, Florida, earlier this year. She wrote in the caption at the time, “perhaps the most epic side quest EVER!!! @wwerecruit @wwe @wwenxt #wwe #wwenxt #wwerecruit #wwetryout #epic #sidequest #amazingexpirience #love #mygirls”
Finch was part of another tryout session later in August. You can view one of her photos from her tryout below:
