All three athletes participated in WWE\'s SummerSlam 2025 tryouts in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and have signed NXT/Performance Center developmental contracts. This follows reports earlier this week that new names had been added to the developmental system.
- Walker, 21, is a University of Nebraska track and field athlete who was previously part of WWE\'s NIL program. She was included in the company\'s fifth NIL class announced in June 2025, which also featured Mark Henry\'s son Jacob Henry, Scott Steiner\'s son Brock Rechsteiner, and Titus O\'Neil\'s son TJ Bullard. Walker has now transitioned from her NIL deal to a full developmental contract.
- Habibi-Likio, 26, comes from a football background, playing running back for the Oregon Ducks and Boise State Broncos from 2018-2022. He recorded 229 carries and 23 touchdowns across his NCAA career without ever fumbling the ball. His journey to WWE began after his WrestleMania 41 vlogs caught the attention of company recruiters.
- Bogdanov, 31, is a decorated rhythmic gymnast who represented the United States at the 2011 Pan American Games, winning silver and bronze medals. She was also crowned Freestyle Calisthenics World Champion in 2015.
