After impressing WWE officials during her WrestleMania XL weekend tryout, “Vicious” Victoria D’Errico was offered a full-time contract with the company. Yet, while she made her name as a boxer, she was actually hired to be a referee, not a wrestler. And now, having established herself in NXT, she has taken to Instagram to reveal that on Saturday, after months of intense preparation, she won multiple categories at the 2025 Daytona Pro/AM Championship.
Why D’Errico decided to pursue a career as a referee, given her evident athletic ability and background in a legitimate combat sport, is unclear. However, in the past, WWE has been trying to recruit more female referees, and it is known that both Thunder Rosa and Tasha Steelz were previously offered this role. Therefore, perhaps it was the only spot open to D’Errico at the time, and the Providence College School of Business graduate is just happy to work for the company.
