How WWE Turned Down Santino Marella’s Daughter After Her Tryout

WWE has a lot of people in for tryouts, but not everyone can leave with a contract, Santino Marella’s daughter Bianca Carelli tried out for WWE in 2019, but they turned her down. In the process, they also gave her some valuable advice to execute before coming back to try again later.

While speaking to Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Bianca Carelli talked about her WWE tryout. Just going into the building was an amazing experience for her, but in the end she was told to go out and get more experience before coming back to try again.

“A lot of it was keep working and get more experience. I know my mic skills are pretty solid, it was really just the wrestling aspect of things. Just to get more comfortable with the wrestling aspect of things. Unfortunately though because of Coronavirus, that got put on pause for me, which was unfortunate. Last year, when Coronavirus hit, I had so many matches lined up. It was unfortunate that it happened, so I had to find other ways to improve. I studied my own matches, stayed in shape and thought of ways to rebrand myself.”

Bianca Carelli can get much more experience at Battle Arts Academy with her father around to sharpen her skills in the ring. She had no trouble talking on the microphone, but her in-ring abilities need brushed up a bit before WWE will be willing to extend a developmental contract. The company is full of multi-generational wrestlers at this point and you never know if Bianca Carelli might follow in her father’s footsteps.
