Joe Spivak is part of WWE’s first-ever NIL class.
During a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, the former defensive lineman for Northwestern commented on being a part of the “Next In Line” name, image, and likeness program, and more. You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On signing to the NIL class: “I got on board fast. I can remember pretending to be John Cena and the Boogeyman in our backyards.”
On feeling like he’s a good fit for WWE: “I started thinking, ‘this could really be perfect.’ I just love training and athletics and completion so much and my other love is having a mic. I’m excited to learn from everyone as much as I can so when I get an opportunity to tryout I’m ready to turn heads and let them know they have something special … I want to make it big and I know it is going to take a ton of work. But I will do it. That I know.”
