A number of independent names that are set to take part in an upcoming WWE tryout later this month have been revealed.
WWE is currently in the midst of it’s European tour, with tomorrow night’s episode of Raw set to take place in Glasgow, Scotland.
Amid the ongoing European tour, WWE is set to host it’s latest tryout, and the date and various names confirmed for the tryout have now been revealed.
Per Fightful Select (subscription required), the tryout is scheduled to take place on March 30, and is set to be a smaller group than previous WWE European tryouts.
Among those that have been confirmed to have been invited to the tryout include two names WWE has previously shown reported interest in, those being Rhio and Man Like DeReiss.
In addition, Fightful has learned that PROGRESS World Champion Luke Jacobs has also been invited to the tryout after recently making an appearance as part of WWE’s security team for SmackDown in Barcelona, with Goldenboy Santos also being invited to the tryout following his appearance in Spain, as well as Spanish talent Zozaya, who was also featured as part of the group of extras.
Fightful also learned from sources in the UK scene that former Love Island star Adam Maxted was invited to the tryout in addition to the four other talents mentioned.
One name that has been asked about to Fightful ahead of the tryouts is Michael Oku, with Fightful noting that they were told by several sources that an Oku invitation for the tryout was ‘highly unlikely’, as well as former wXw Unified World Champion Peter Tihanyi not being set for the tryout due to him still recovering from a shoulder injury.
