- The Medina Gazette from Ohio reports that WWE signed NAIA national wrestling champion Derek Foore to a developmental deal on Friday. Foore was invited to a FCW tryout months ago after WWE's Jerry Brisco scouted him at a wrestling competition. Foore is planning a move to Florida where he can begin training at FCW.
The two-time national finalist and three-time high school state wrestling runner-up had the following to say about the signing:
"Right when I got the call I was like, Yes, Im one step closer. Im willing to do whatever it takes. When Im crazy enough, big enough and my career is sound and well-molded, thats when theyll say Ok, youre ready, man. Im just living in the moment. Im 22 years old and I have this opportunity. I will take it and seize it."
