In a thrilling turn of events, Marcus Mathers, a flourishing talent of the WWE ID initiative, has clinched the title of IWTV Independent Wrestling World Champion, usurping it from Mads Krugger.
Delivering a power-packed 450 splash at the Beyond Wrestling’s ‘Heavy Lies The Crown’ event, Mathers managed to break the year-long stranglehold of the erstwhile champion, marking the end of his 366-day reign.
Mathers forms part of an impressive lineup of names associated with the WWE ID initiative, an ingenious talent acquisition strategy that succeeds the WWE Next-In-Line (WWE NIL) program.
The WWE ID program affords potential stars the opportunity to utilize WWE’s training hub and also provides them a streamlined path to possibly transform into full-fledged Superstars.
