The WWE ID program that started under the Triple H regime has had quite an incredible start and about 17 prospects have already been announced. The announcement of the program was met with a mostly positive response from fans and superstars alike.
Kylie Rae, who wrestled at the AEW Double or Nothing Pay-Per-View back in 2019, has now been announced as the newest prospect of the Independent Development program started by World Wrestling Entertainment. The announcement was made last night at an event organized by Freelance Wrestling.

Kylie Rae also had a brief stint with the Stamford-based company in 2022-23. She attended a tryout in Orlando, Florida, in late 2022. During the tryouts, she wrestled current WWE Superstars Fallon Henley and Thea Hail.
Rae was also featured on Main Event, where she competed against Dana Brooke and lost the match. Unfortunately for Kylie, she was not signed to a contract by the Stamford-based promotion. Her fans now have high hopes for her future following the big news.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
