Richard Adonis has joined the WWE ID programme after being recruited by Timothy Thatcher at WWN Live’s October 12 event in Clearwater, Florida.
Thatcher, who serves as a WWE coach and EVOLVE General Manager, was also in action at the show. Adonis later celebrated the news on X with a short message:
“It’s official WWE ID”
The 25-year-old began wrestling in 2017 and has since appeared for AEW, Ring of Honor, Major League Wrestling, TNA and the National Wrestling Alliance. He also competed in a dark match for WWE NXT in early September 2026.
Joining WWE ID marks another step forward for Adonis following his appearances across several major promotions.
His arrival comes amid another change to the programme, with former WWE ID Women’s Champion Laynie Luck departing after her contract was not renewed.
