Rayne has never competed under the WWE umbrella. As of this writing, Rayne is still scheduled to appear at All In after she and Maxwell Jacob Friedman won a tag team match to earn the spot. 

Also added to the list were two wrestlers with considerably less experience than Rayne. 21 year old Priscilla Kelly has been in professional wrestling for a few years and has competed for a lot of promotions but most predominately she has wrestled for SHINE. 

19 year old Xia Brookside has been wrestling nearly as long as Priscilla Kelly and has wrestled for promotions like RISE and STARDOM

The Mae Young Classic will be filming next week and will be aired at a later date. The finals will take place live on WWE Evolution which is the first all women pay-per-view in WWE history.
