Sean Legacy speaks about WWE ID.
In the fall of 2024, WWE launched their independent wrestling development program and as of this writing, over 15 wrestlers have been added to the program.
One of those names is Sean Legacy. In addition to his independent dates, Legacy competes on EVOLVE and has made appearances on NXT TV in recent weeks.
A profile piece on Legacy was rolled out by WJBF in Augusta, Georgia and he spoke about being recruited for WWE ID. He said the program skyrocketed his career.
"I am signed with WWE doing a WWE I.D. prospect and man, I’m very grateful and it’s a blessing to have that right now because it’s been skyrocketing my career.
So I was in Germany, on a tour, on a wrestling tour and I got the phone call about it and I was like, ‘Man, this is awesome.’ I’m with the WWE but not signed with the WWE, you know? At first, it was kind of just a logo. It was just having that logo by your name and of course you’re getting paid and basically the money you’re getting goes to plane tickets to help you branch your name out even more. That’s what it looked like at first. But now, like I said earlier, it’s just growing and growing and growing… It was amazing. One of the best phone calls I’ve ever had."
Elsewhere in the discussion, Legacy expressed his belief that 2025 will be his last year on the independent scene.
"Yes, dude. I’m walking in as I am the best one out of everybody. I have to. You have to have that mindset that you are the one and I have that mindset. Every time I go to the P.C. and train. Every time I work on EVOLVE, every time I even go to an indie show, like, I am the one and I am going to prove (to) everyone why Legacy will be super. You have to have that mindset of this is it, this is it and I truly do believe that this is my last year (on the indies) and I’m gonna keep going at it."
Legacy is scheduled for in-ring action on the 5/20 NXT on The CW. He'll be in a Triple Threat with Je'Von Evans and Ashante 'Thee' Adonis.
