Duquesne Lineman Roman Macek Offered Three-Year Developmental Deal With WWE

Roman Macek could be headed to the WWE Performance Center. 

Macek, an offensive lineman at Duquesne, was part of the WWE tryout during WrestleMania week and he received news on Tuesday that WWE was interested. 

Speaking with Trib Live, Macek revealed that WWE offered him a three-year developmental deal. 

“Immediately, I started tearing up,” Macek said. “I threw my hands in the air. I said thank you probably 400 times in the span of 10 seconds. Accepted it immediately. It was an unbelievable feeling. It felt so surreal. …This is something I wanted my entire life.”

Macek said the contract is supposed to reach him later this week and he will have to make a decision quickly. According to the article, WWE would require him to relocate to Florida within 60 days.

Along with having one more season left at Duquesne, Macek is a first-year law student.
