From NFL to WWE: Sammis Reyes’ Transition to Wrestling

The former American football player Sammis Reyesconfirmed that he received an offer to be a WWE wrestler.

Let us remember that Reyes was the first Chilean to play in the NFL in the United States, but last August he decided to retire after suffering a concussion that affected him more than expected.

And now, he revealed that he could continue in the sport although in a very different field. Sammis Reyes told CNN who will travel to the United States on December 12 to hold a meeting with the famous wrestling organization at the Performance Center in Orlando.

“It’s going to be a very good experience. I don’t know what it takes to be a WWE wrestler, I have always done competitive sports and WWE is basically a show, a show,” he indicated.

Likewise, he said that he thinks “it’s going to be a little different, but I think it would be unwise of me not to give myself the opportunity to even know what it is.”

“I traveled there for two days. The worst that can happen is that I lose two days of my life; The best thing that would happen to me is that I sign a contract with the WWE, which they already offered me,” he said.

In the interview, Reyes also assured that he received offers to work on the big screen.

The outstanding participation of Sammis Reyes in the Telethon

Reyes’ participation in Telethon 2023 left a couple of iconic moments in the collective broadcast of the 27 hours of love through national channels.

Sammis won the attention of the public at the telephone table with his imposing presence of almost 2 meters in height, but he won the hearts of many after confirming that he refused to go to the Latin Grammys in Spain to participate in this Telethon 2023.

The athlete stated that when his representative approached him about the possibility of being part of the solidarity crusade, he did not think twice. “We believe that this is much more important than any music award, this is something from the heart,” clarified the 28-year-old.
