WWE Looking To Sign Former USA Rugby Captain

The WWE are hopeful that they will sign former USA Rugby captain Todd Clever to a contract.

In an interview with CNN, Clever said that he was contacted by the WWE for a tryout.

He said: " I didn’t want to miss out on anything, so I said yeah, and I went out there for a week. I absolutely loved my time there in Orlando, Florida. It was brilliant. Their high-performance center was top-notch and I really felt at home.”

Clever also said he welcomed the opportunity for a new experience.

"That’s my whole thing. You don’t want to have any regrets in life, from missing out on experiences."

Clever represented the USA in three Rugby World Cups, before retiring in June last year, with his final match qualifying the U.S to compete in next year's World Cup in Japan.
