#3 Reggie reveals how he became a professional wrestler in WWE

Reggie has had a unique transition into professional wrestling.

The former 24/7 Champion previously had a career in Cirque du Soleil prior to becoming a WWE Superstar.

When asked how he became a professional wrestler, Reggie revealed that his journey started in 2019 when Cirque du Soleil had an exchange with the WWE Performance Center:

"So in 2019, Cirque du Soleil had an exchange with the Performance Center and I was a part of that show and when they said 'hey WWE wants to do an exchange with us,' I said 'sign me up ten times!' So I went to the ring, first time ever jumping into the squared circle and fell in love." said Reggie.

Reggie has utilized much of the incredible acrobatics and athleticism from Cirque du Soleil during his short time on WWE television so far.
