The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that WWE has signed Jennifer Cantu (Jennifer Mitchell Cantu Iglesias) and she will be part of the recently announced WWE Performance Center class, even if she wasn’t named. This confirms another report from earlier this week that she was expected to report to the WWE PC soon.

Cantu is the daughter of Mexican wrestler Bronco and a former Olympic weightlifter. She competed in both of the world championship in weightlifting and the Pan American games. She began training for wrestling at Arena Monterrey in 2019.

Meanwhile, Bobby Steveson, a former heavyweight at the University of Minnesota and the older brother of potential Olympic heavyweight Gable Steveson, is currently training at the PC and will start with the next class. His brother Gable is also reportedly ‘a lock’ after he finishes college eligibility in the 2022 season or after the 2024 Olympics.
