A report from Rockford Register Star has indicated that Josh Black has signed with WWE after a tryout in Detroit over SummerSlam weekend.
Black, a graduate of Syracuse University, stated in an interview that he found himself waiting and waiting for the call, unsure if the dream would become reality after attempts to play for the NFL came up short on two occasions.
According to the article from RRS reporter Jay Taft, Black looks to sign a 3-year rookie contract, with further details unknown as of time of writing.
The article also notes what Black can expect to go through as part of being in developmental, with a focus on training at the WWE Performance Center and potentially being on NXT in due time.
