Little update on her: apparently, Lily did amazing at the tryout and she missed her own graduation just to fly out to Orlando and try out for WWE.
Hope she got that contract, we need passionate women like her in WWE ❤️ https://t.co/Toej0cPHsd pic.twitter.com/GMhLBHSMR0— Alex (@lexveraux) December 17, 2023
