RFK Jr.’s niece takes part in WWE SummerSlam tryouts

Boston College softball player Zoe Hines attended last week’s WWE tryouts.
Hines is the niece of actress Cheryl Hines, who is married to Robert Kennedy Jr, the US Secretary of Health and Human Services. She is currently in her senior year playing at BCU, and appears to have recently graduated. She is also a member of France’s national softball team as well as its U22 program.
“Grateful for the opportunity, the experience, and the people. Honored to represent @wwe at the 2025 SummerSlam Tryout,” Hines wrote on Instagram.
WWE’s tryouts took place last Thursday in New Jersey as part of SummerSlam week. That same day, Triple H appeared at the White House for an executive order signing on sports, fitness, and nutrition, as well as reviving the Presidential Fitness Test.
Triple H and Stephanie McMahon also met with RKF Jr. in June. RFK posted to social media that he was strategizing with them about the upcoming council.
“Met today with @TripleH and @StephMcMahon to strategize about the upcoming President’s Council on Sports, Fitness & Nutrition,” he wrote.
Triple H responded to RFK’s post:
“Thank you for having us, @SecKennedy. Always striving to do whatever we can to help make our nation’s youth as healthy as they can be.”
Prior to starting at Boston College, Hines was a four-sport varsity athlete at her high school. She posted about her WWE tryout to Instagram:
