Starting to wonder if any of this is related to the XFL shutting down and him (and WWE by association) likely losing way more money than assumed on its revival.

Everything done since thing makes it seem like Vince and WWE might be dealing with potential money issues despite that shouldn't be the case. Like him panicking outta nowhere in regards to WWE's tv deals or XFL filing for bankruptcy despite him putting hundreds of millions on the side to fund it for a few years.

Damn. Poor Heath. The only member of 3MB to not get some big hardware.

He'll be back in 2 years, are you ready for 3MB 6 FEET APART?

Somebody on Facebook says Ember Moon is released, but her tweet doesn't actually suggest that. Any word?

Just rumours at the moment.

Wasn't Tommy Dreamer just saying how stupid Ryder is for spending so much money on action figures like a day ago, and now he has no job.

That's not very WWWYKI

He could probably sell some of them now.

forget the toys i want to know how zack could aford the women he dated

Considering Rusev was among those let go, it does give some credence to that rumor for WWE's choices for releases.

Yeah he’s done well for himself. Emma and Chelsea Green.

I mean he’s an in shape dude in an industry where the women wrestlers are almost definitely gonna wind up dating other wrestlers...so I kinda get it. Also probably was making a pretty nice salary due to longevity.

Same with Bennet , Anderson and Gallows, Brodie saying that Rowan wanted out. Probably a mixture between those who voluntary left and those who they released.

Here’s another thought extra thought on this shitpile. The Jimmy Snuka Dark Side of the Ring just aired. Now WWE is in the news for something bad, but the nobody is talking about if Vince McMahon helped cover up a murder.

I can think of 20, maybe 30 people to let go before Rusev.


Question.

Was Rusev not one of the top merch sellers a couple of years ago?

He was but I think he has wanted out for a while now.

Which is why Tamia will keep her job of eating half the catered food brought in every show.

Rusev has been the #2 trend on Twitter in the U.S. for about 2 hours now

Today's mass releases ended up being worth an extra 83 cents for WWE's stock based on current after-hours trading with an hour left to go.

Capitalism! USA USA USA

MJ Jenkins of NXT has been released

They could have just released Lesnar and it would have covered the costs of basically everyone else so far lol

Raw really got hammered

He didn’t sell out, he bought in.

Or just eat the cost for the time being considering the amount WWE is saving from these budget cuts is tiny compared to their massive cash reserve and the huge sum of money Vince earned for WWE liquidity during these times.

Just the liquidity money from Vince alone would have covered those saved costs for around 20 months.

I liked his video-game inspired music and tron, could have done without the dabbing

Checked this at work and this was just a few posts in on page 1. Now we're at 4.

God damn. Did Vince discover the landscaper shed at the Performance Center and take the Chainsaw for a spin?!

I think a few of the names on that list will land on their feet. Anderson & Gallows, EC3, Rowan, Mike & Maria Bennett, Rusev. If anything they're phones are ringing already from various promotions. They probably won't be working until the Rona lightens up a bit.

We've been saying for a while that the rosters were heavy. And we knew the day was coming cuts were going to be made. But, with all the crap happening in the world, the timing couldn't be any worse.

But, at the same time, if anybody at WWE who is miserable and wants a safe out, this is probably your best chance.

Oh I know. I'm just pointing out they could have done that. Lesnar is easily the most financially secure guy on the active roster, it wouldn't hurt him in the least to be sent packing and it would have let them keep all the others who aren't as fortunate as him employed.

Of all the refs they could've released, they got rid of Chioda? Unless he volunteered to save somebody else.

Fuck Seth

Ace Steel, Serene Deeb, and Kendo Ka Shin released from their Performance Center coaching roles.

Apollo Crews Released.

Apollo needs to go to AEW ASAP. So many people he could have incredible matches with.

Not seeing anything on Apollo being cut.

I saw it on twitter, prob #FakeNews
