The WWE‘s NIL (Next in Line) program offers athletes a viable career opportunity after their collegiate days. Only days ago celebrated rising wrestler Cohlton Schultz made the headlines by signing for the program. While wrestlers across the country see the program as a reasonable option, it’s not common for acrobatic athletes to follow the path. However, the program recently bagged its first acrobatics champ and we wait to see what it bodes for the WWE.

Bayley Humphrey, Baylor Bears’ acrobatics prodigy has recently been named one of the 14 new signees for the WWE NIL programs. Humphrey’s addition to the roster will surely open up new avenues for other acrobatics athletes across colleges in the country who can now seek to chart new paths after their uni days are over.

Humphrey took to social media to announce her latest achievement. “super excited to announce I have partnered with the WWE #NIL program!!“, wrote the Baylor Bears athlete. She also posted two photos sporting WWE NIL gear and it appears a perfect fit perfectly on one of the most promising athletes. Humphrey is riding on a high horse after competing in all 11 meets of the 2023 season and her new venture might have more things to offer to the artistic gymnast for her future.

Humphrey has accumulated a perfect 6 score on more than one occasion this season. Bayley was also part of the team that registered a perfect 10 toss score against Frostburg State. If these weren’t impressive enough, she was also named NCATA All-American and NCATA Specialist of the Week and has secured her place in the 2023 National Championship team.

Along with Humphrey, two more All-American wrestlers have signed the NIL program deal this year. Michigan’s Lucas Davison and Big 12 champ Stephen Buchanan from the University of Oklahoma will look to etch their names among WWE fans as they pledge their commitment to the world of professional wrestling.
