Tamyra Mensah-Stock, an Olympic gold medalist who signed with WWE back in May, has reportedly been progressing well in her transition from freestyle wrestling to sports entertainment.
A report from Dave Meltzer in the most recent Wrestling Observer Newsletter included an update on Mensah-Stock’s training at the WWE Performance Center, with Meltzer stating:
“Reports on Olympic gold medalist Tamyra Mensah-Stock, who was the actual biggest name recent signing but has not debuted yet, are very strong. We’re told she’s doing great and taking to pro wrestling like a fish to water.”
Mensah-Stocks made history at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 by becoming the first Black woman to win a gold medal in women’s freestyle wrestling.
