Another Olympic Gold Medalist Hopes to Join WWE


Olympic Gold Medalist Tamyra Mensah-Stock is waiting for WWE to offer her a contract.

Mensah-Stock made history last year by winning a gold medal in women’s freestyle wrestling (68kg) at the 2020 Summer Olympic games from Tokyo, Japan.

WWE fans might remember she and Gable Steveson made a surprise in-ring appearance at SummerSlam.

Steveson has since signed a WWE contract and is seen by many as having the potential to be “the next Kurt Angle.”

According to Mensah-Stock, she’s also interested in following in the footsteps of Kurt Angle (and Gable Steveson, for that matter).

Twitter user @TeeExTee asked Mensah-Stock when WWE is going to offer her a contract. She replied and said she’s been wondering that same thing herself.

WWE has a long history of collegiate, professional and Olympic athletes crossing over to the world of sports entertainment. We’ll see if Tamyra Mensah-Stock is a future WWE Superstar, but now we know she’s up for it.
