WWE ID

Following the success of WWE's NIL program, WWE ID has been constructed to support independent wrestling prospects and schools with world-class training, development and mentorship, in turn raising the profile of and strengthening the independent wrestling ecosystem. 

WWE will provide the most prominent independent wrestling schools in the U.S. with the "WWE ID" official designation, with the goal of guiding new trainees and existing talent at these select institutions with enhanced developmental opportunities. 

WWE ID will identify the top independent wrestling prospects with an official "WWE ID Prospect" designation and support their developmental journey. WWE ID will give fans the opportunity to follow the paths of these standout prospects on the independent wrestling scene through curated, behind-the-scenes content, as well as highlights and matches showcased across WWE's social platforms.
