9 Things You Need To Know About WWE’s New Performance Center Recruits

2. Santana Garrett Has Already Wrestled Eight WWE Matches

Wrestling fans who watch every little piece of content WWE put out will remember that Santana Garrett was an entrant in the first Mae Young Classic Tournament back in 2017. There, she lost in the very first round to Piper Niven (episode three if anyone wants to check it out). That wasn't her first or last time in the company.

In total, Garrett has worked eight matches under the WWE umbrella.

The former Shine, Stardom, WOW and TNA starlet first appeared way back on the 9 October 2013 episode of NXT in a losing effort against Charlotte Flair. Other opponents of note include Asuka, Billie Kay, Dakota Kai and Tenille Dashwood. It's remarkable to think that, after working on and off as a jobber for close to six years, Santana has finally sealed a WWE deal.

Fans who watched her in Shine and Stardom know she has much more to offer than working as mere enhancement talent though. Her own Twitter announcement about joining WWE's Performance Center proved she can count on heavy support from the wider wrestling community.
