The article noted the following:
More than 40 attendees were invited to the tryout. The field of WWE hopefuls includes not only up-and-comers from the independent circuit, but also athletes with no prior sports-entertainment experience, such as Scarlett Delgado, a top-ranked Olympic-style boxer and freestyle wrestler from Ontario. Among the other notables in attendance are Randy Arruda, a 6-foot-5, 268-pound grappler who trains at Santino Marella’s Battle Arts Academy; Michael Richard Blais of Alberta, who initially learned the ropes under Tyson Kidd in Calgary; and Kaitlin Baki, a former martial artist who has wrestled in eight countries under the ring alias “Kaitlin Diemond.”
