WWE continues to build its future roster around people who didn't grow up wanting to be professional wrestlers.
Multi-time Cheerleading World Champion and one of the stars of the Netflix docuseries Cheer, Gabi Butler, has signed a deal with WWE.
The Cheer star recently sat down with PEOPLE Magazine to discuss a wide variety of subjects. During the discussion, she revealed that after witnessing the WWE product live at SummerSlam earlier this year, she fell in love with the industry and is currently training at the Performance Center in Orlando:
"I was blown away by what they put on," Gabi Butler said. "I was so involved in the cheerleading industry for so long, and I never really looked into anything other than cheerleading. But when I went to SummerSlam, it really just opened my eyes to the athleticism and the dedication the athletes bring into the ring."
Butler believes there are a lot of similarities between cheerleading and professional wrestling, and she can't wait to take on a new challenge:
"It's very related to cheerleading because we're performers, we're entertainers, we like to put on a show and we also have to be athletic," Gabi Butler said. "I would definitely love to take that challenge, hopefully in the future. You have to be committed to be wrestling, that's for sure. It definitely doesn't look easy. I never thought that cheerleading would take me on this route, but here we are."
