WWE has instructed wrestlers signed to WWE ID contracts to use their WWE-assigned names exclusively going forward, dropping their independent circuit names for all upcoming appearances, per Bodyslam.
The following current WWE ID talent and their mandated names:
- Aricia Demia going by Anya Rune
- Notorious Mimi going by Sloane Jacobs
- Starboy Charlie going by Chazz Starboy Hall
- Jariel Rivera going by Santi Rivera
- Jimmy House going by CJ Valor
- Mike Cunningham going by Max Abrams
WWE ID — WWE Independent Development — launched in October 2024 as a scouting and support program for promising independent wrestlers, offering a pathway toward a potential WWE contract. The program designates official WWE ID schools and tags individual wrestlers as WWE ID Prospects, providing access to WWE facilities, training, athletic trainers and mentorship.
