WNBA player comments on WWE tryout offer
Kalani Brown has recently commented on outreach efforts by WWE.
The Phoenix Mercury player revealed this week that WWE’s Talent ID and Recruitment Division reached out about a potential tryout. The 6-foot-7 center from Louisiana shared the message she received from WWE recruiter Macy Zaban:
“Hey Kalani, I hope this finds you well!
This is Macy Zaban from the Talent ID and Recruitment Division here at the WWE. We have identified you as a potential great fit for the brand. I am reaching out to see if you might be interested in an opportunity to tryout for the WWE?
At a tryout we bring a select group of athletes from across the world. All travel, flights and hotels are covered by us. Please let me know your interest and we’d be happy to setup a call to discuss further.”
Brown responded to a follower who said she could make more money in WWE than the WNBA:
“Oh I never said NO.. Its more so like a “Can I really do it??? Idkkk”
She later added:
“If I leave, it’ll be on my own terms babes.. Believe that.”
Brown played her college ball at Baylor, was selected in the 2019 WNBA Draft by the Los Angeles Sparks, and is the daughter of former NBA player PJ Brown, who won a championship with the Boston Celtics in 2008.
