Rumor Mill - Sara Del Rey's WWE Status

As previously reported, Sara Del Rey is now officially a member of the WWE roster.

It is being reported by backstage sources that Del Rey was brought into the promotion for several reasons, one of them being that WWE is looking to hire more female talent who aren't "typical models" like ex-WWE Divas Maxine and The Bella Twins.

It was also suggested that Del Rey would also have a big role in helping to train and develop individuals in the Divas division, which is said to be confirmed and also serves as a sign that WWE is looking to move the Divas division towards "actual wrestling ability" rather than the "sex aspect."

Del Rey is currently booked for two more independent shows, with the last being in mid-August. Following these, she will begin working with WWE.
