Tamyra Mensah-Stock, who is an Olympic champion in freestyle wrestling at 68 kilograms, signed with WWE earlier this year. It has been a while since she joined WWE and it appears Stock has been doing great in the company so far.

Tamyra Mensah-Stock’s historic victory at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 made her the first Black woman to win gold in freestyle wrestling and she made it clear she wanted to join WWE. That is why it was such a huge moment for her when she did sign with the company.

According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it was reported that Tamyra Mensah-Stock has been doing great in the company and learning the roles extremely well.

“Reports on Olympic gold medalist Tamyra Mensah-Stock, who was the actual biggest name recent signing but has not debuted yet, are very strong. We’re told she’s doing great and taking to pro wrestling like a fish to water.”
