Update On Possibility Of WWE Signing Luke Jacobs

WWE recently held tryouts in Europe, with several indie standouts impressing during the sessions, including Luke Jacobs.

Jacobs - the current PROGRESS World Champion - is one of the top names on the European independent scene, and with reports suggesting that WWE could be set to pull the trigger on NXT Europe then you would assume Jacobs would be high on their wishlist.

However, whilst the likes of Zozaya, Mike D Vecchio, and Aigle Blanc are expected to sign deals with WWE, Jacobs is not a guarantee, with a report from Fightful Select stating that whilst those in the scene expect Jacobs to join WWE - potentially this year - there are others who have poured scorn on such reports and believe that Jacobs will not be signing with WWE.

Regardless, Jacobs impressed at the European tryouts, and he looks set to remain a prominent star on the UK indy scene. Whilst NXT Europe hasn’t been officially confirmed, it looks likely to be given the green light in 2025, potentially becoming WWE’s fifth brand alongside Raw, SmackDown, NXT, and Evolve.
