Former WWE Name Trains With Current Stars Ahead Of In-Ring Return

WWE

Former WWE star Gabbi Tuft has now shared more footage of her training for an in-ring return, this time from the famous Hart Dungeon.

Gabbi Tuft previously wrestled in the WWE men’s division as Tyler Reks from 2008 to 2012.

She came out as a transgender woman in 2021 and following her transition, announced that she was interested in returning to the ring.

After previously sharing posts about training at the Rhodes Wrestling Academy, and later with several WWE stars, Tuft has now shared a video of herself training at the Hart Dungeon, which you can view below.

Thanking WWE stars Natalya, TJ Wilson (Tyson Kidd), B-Fab and Elektra Lopez for their help, Tuft wrote:

60 secs of Mother absolutely mothering at The Dungeon. 80+ degrees in Tampa, No AC, Natalya pushing you to the limit – Superstars are forged here.

Ty to @NatbyNature & @TJWilson for having me. Ty to Chico Adams, Cam Fox, Kai Price, Frank, Paige, @TheVibeBri, & @elektralopezwwe

Natalya shared Tufts post with some words of encouragement, writing:

Keep up the great work. The heat makes this sh*t so much harder— but lungs, brain, heart, tendons, ligaments, bones, joints… all conditioned for what we need to be our best in the ring. Brick by brick…

Tuft last wrestled (as Tyler Reks) at an independent event in October 2014.

After stepping away from professional wrestling, Gabbi worked as a fitness model and coach.
