Indie star Rhio recently spoke with MuscleManMalcolm about her experiences during the WWE UK tryouts in March.
Rhio said, “I’m not too sure what I can or can’t share, but it was held at the UK Performance Center. So it was around the time of… it was like the last week of the European tour leading up to WrestleMania. So there was SmackDown in London, there was RAW in London, I think SmackDown on Friday, RAW on Monday. It was that weekend in between that the tryout was held. I think it was the first tryout that in the UK that they had athletes from the UK. So it wasn’t like an all wrestler tryout. It’s quite interesting to tryout with people that aren’t wrestlers and have specialties in other sections. So, I saw the weaknesses that they had. However, I also saw the strengths that they had, and I was like, ‘Oh, ok.’ I’m not going to lie. I got annihilated on a med ball toss. But when it comes to the roles in the wrestling, I brought it back, I brought it back, so it’s all good.”
