Can a person with high functioning autism compete in WWE?

Yes, an Autistic person can compete in the WWE.There's no such thing as 'high-functioning autism' - a person is either Autistic or they're not, how they are impacted and severity can change dramatically from person to person as well as changing throughout their lives or in different situations. Functioning labels are considered offensive, by offensive I mean that they are oppressive towards Autistic people because they are ableist.

Is there such a thing as mid-functioning autism?

Yes. People with aspergers syndrome, like myself, are considered having high-functioning autism. So yes, there is such a thingA:I have not heard or read the term mid-functioning autism in papers on autism or Asperger's Syndrome, so it might not be a term that is typically used. Although, the term high-functioning autism is used, similar terms such as low-functioning autism or mid-functioning autism do not seem to be in common use, although that might be changing. The severity of autism ranges from mild to severe, so there are people with autism who function at different levels. The level of functioning (low, mid, or high) would be based on either IQ or how able the person is to function without help.
