Gina DeLucia spoke about her tryout experience and how she got into the wrestling industry in the first place. The CrossFit athlete explained that she had put in her application and got a call back from WWE a few days later. She said:
“I put in my application, and a few days later I got a call back. We chatted over a few interviews and they liked what they saw from me, and then they invited me up to WrestleMania in Dallas for the tryout."
Additionally, she revealed that her tryout took place at The Dallas Cowboys training facility. WWE had set up four rings, and all the athletes went on to train with NXT stars and coaches. DeLucia added:
“The tryout was at (the Dallas Cowboys’) practice facility called ‘The Star’. They had four different rings set up. We would kind of cycle through, practice our roles, practice running the ropes, bumps, and there were coaches at each ring helping us through the movements. They had some of the NXT athletes there. They would demonstrate a roll and they wanted to see how adaptable we were and how quickly we could pick up on those things,” said DeLucia.
