WWE is developing a new recruitment strategy targeted at elite former college athletes, reports JustinBarrasso
WWE’s next round of tryouts will be held this week in the form of a two-day event at top athletic prep school IMG Academy,, WWE will hold tryouts Wednesday and Thursday IMG Academy’s campus in Bradenton, Florida. The tryout is part of a new recruitment strategy for WWE as it aims to attract and elevate its profile among elite former college athletes.
Approximately 30 to 35 athletes will participate in the IMG tryout, and the venue is important. IMG Academy prides itself as an elite training ground, and its 600-acre, state-of-the-art campus also serves as a training and competition venue for amateur and pro teams. Its first-class training facilities and air of prestige are a great combination for WWE.This is the third large-scale tryout so far this year, and there are designs of making them an annual rotation.
In-ring assessments at the tryout will include monitoring how athletes take direction, as well as evaluating the manner in which they perform in traditional professional wrestling scenarios. The tryout process also includes NFL Combine-like activations to measure athletic ability, as well as promo sessions to gauge ability and personality on the microphone.
“E is such a critical part of what we’re doing,” says Kimball. “This recruitment strategy is really hitting home for him, and it’s something we should have had when he was a collegiate student-athlete at Iowa. He’s such a great ambassador, and he can relate to these athletes. He’s presenting with shared experience—that goes a long way.”
