- The Reno Gazette-Journal has an article here about NFL prospect Brock Hekking. Hekking, whose high school friend Clayton Jack signed a WWE deal in January and will be making his NXT debut as The Mythical Beast in a couple of weeks, noted that he was offered a WWE contract after his 2013 season ended.
"He [Clayton Jack] said, 'You could come do this if you want to,'" Hekking said. "I said, 'I'm going to play my senior season.' He said, 'OK. This is Plan B.' It's fun and you can make decent money doing it, so that's my Plan B."
