WWE Announces Signing Of Former MLB Player

WWE.com announced the signing of former MLB player Rinku Singh. Singh, at 6’3”, 256 pounds hails from India and was the winner of the 2008 reality TV series The Million Dollar Arm. He was later signed to the MLB’s Pittsburgh Pirates. His life story became the inspiration for the Disney film Million Dollar Arm in 2014.

He had a WWE tryout in Dubai back in April of 2017 where he impressed Performance Center trainers and coaches enough to earn himself a developmental contract

“Take a look at where I came from," Singh told WWE.com. "When I started [playing baseball], there was nothing. Now we have 23 states [in India] playing baseball and softball. As I go through my journey at the Performance Center and WWE, it will continue to make things easier, and I'll have millions of people in my corner. It's going to be a fun journey."

”As long I stay focused and stay strong, just as I have over the past 10 years with baseball or track and field … it will lead me in the right direction," Singh said. "Obviously, it's going to be a totally different training program [at the WWE Performance Center]. But it does not matter where you came from. You're trying to be something bigger than yourself, and you've got to give it everything you've got."
