WWE has come to terms on the release of William Morrissey (Big Cass).


Ol Dirty Dastard 06-19-2018 03:03 PM

YAY

Destor 06-19-2018 03:04 PM

I understand he's was never going to be a top guy but surely he can be useful in other ways...

Destor 06-19-2018 03:04 PM

maybe he and enzo will rap together now

Innovator 06-19-2018 03:05 PM

He was tall and orange. Had everything going for him.

Ol Dirty Dastard 06-19-2018 03:05 PM

There was probably a reason for letting him go?

Bad News Gertner 06-19-2018 03:06 PM

There has to be. They never give up on guys his size so quick.

xrodmuc316 06-19-2018 03:09 PM

Wow, surprised by this. They could have sent him back to NXT for a singles run, see if he could have improved some.

Probably goes back to him beating up that little person after they told him not to.

Probably for going off script on SDL after Vince told him not to.

He has a moron face.

Dark One 06-19-2018 03:29 PM

Not even a "best of luck in his future endeavors"

Must have also lost control of his consensual penis.

Simple Fan 06-19-2018 03:34 PM

Wow, didn't see that coming. Guy really needed more development as a singles competitor. Hopefully he signs with Impact, ROH, or NJPW and gets that development. Hell just being less scripted could help him out slot I think.

Destor 06-19-2018 03:38 PM

He will not fare well on the indies. Not flippy or snug.

Ol Dirty Dastard 06-19-2018 03:39 PM

He's just not all that athletic tbh

Sepholio 06-19-2018 03:55 PM

WTF. Amazing to me that he was unceremoniously released less than 48 hours after a match with DBry. Something must have happened.

Ol Dirty Dastard 06-19-2018 03:56 PM

I think it was fucking stupid he was even feuding with Bryan in the first place. Totally unearned and they seemed to have plans to put him over until he went off script.

Sepholio 06-19-2018 03:57 PM

I must have missed when he went off script. Whats that all about?

Innovator 06-19-2018 03:57 PM

At least he got the heel hook over

The midget thing. He was told to boot him and that's it. He asked everyone from agents to Vince himself if he could attack him more than everyone said no. Then he did it anyway.

Absolutely agree. His size alone makes him valuable enough to give people the rub on an as-needed basis. At least for a while anyways.

Big Vic 06-19-2018 04:04 PM

They should have jobbed him more on the way out, could have gotten Rusev/Big E/Tye over.

Maybe he asked for it?

I'm not saying for the purposes of sleeping with each other but they do seem to really like being around each other and fact she's the one that requested to work with him and apparently after he got released they talked all the time so she must be really happy to have him back.

Destor 06-19-2018 04:54 PM

How was the danielson match?

slik 06-19-2018 04:56 PM

Best match of Cass's career

Emperor Smeat 06-19-2018 04:57 PM

Something had to have happened very recently in order for him to get fired.

Considering some of the stuff done on tv in recent months, couldn't have just been the midget incident or else Vince would have pulled the plug on his push and his job a lot sooner.

Supposedly him and Enzo were the two most despised people backstage for various reasons but even that didn't really affect their status on tv.

According to the dirtsheets, Cass had "backstage heat" for his pro-Trump views.

When did he do that?

Emperor Smeat 06-19-2018 06:18 PM

According to the Observer, Cass did something that warranted a new punishment coming his way prior to Vince deciding to fire him instead.

Meltzer also debunked rumors of his release being just some roster cleaning like with Zeda and one of the Ealy Bros.

He went too far in it. He was supposed to just do the big boot and pose. He went too far in it and it wasn't what Vince wanted.

slik 06-19-2018 06:38 PM

I wouldn't be surprised if it was something as silly as him complaining about booking that was 'the final straw'.

Meltz has hinted before Cass complains Daniel Bryan is a bad worker a lot.

Bad News Gertner 06-19-2018 06:42 PM

First Ryback now Big Cass. This stupid company just destroys and buries anyone with potential while these little 5"10 200 midgets get pushed like Nakamura and Balor who nobody cares about.

Hmm... I dunno I think there are bigger big men than those 2 out there. Actually Ryback coulda been something but he was a bit limited and wooden, no?

Bad News Gertner 06-19-2018 06:48 PM

He was limited by the WWE having him lose 100 ppv matches in a row.

I mean Daniel Bryan got over after losing about the same. Impressive since he's a midget.

But I get what you're saying. Just think they need to find more Brody/Hansen types and less clunky gyno-tit types or wooden bodybuilders.

slik 06-19-2018 06:50 PM

Ryback could have Braun's spot if he was still there.

Ol Dirty Dastard 06-19-2018 06:51 PM

Nah Braun is way larger than life than Ryback. Ryback was kind of short himself (for a 'big man' that is)

#1-norm-fan 06-19-2018 06:53 PM

Ryback might be the biggest dropped ball in WWE history.

erickman 06-19-2018 06:54 PM

so does he have to wait 90 days or can he show up at all in.

Destor 06-19-2018 06:55 PM

Ryback was awful and never could have held the ball. Good presence but cant work

Cass is like... 476th on the list.

He could work fine. It's not like he was the kind of guy you needed to go out there and work 30 minute mat classics for the internet to cream themselves over. He was an asskicker and it worked until just after the Hell in a Cell match with Punk when they forgot why he got over.

erickman 06-19-2018 06:59 PM

cass can be the 7 foot tall bullet club bear at all in

Ol Dirty Dastard 06-19-2018 06:59 PM

Destor kind of voicing my feelings. I definitely "liked" him but he just seemed to be missing something, even before he turned into a jobber.

#1-norm-fan 06-19-2018 07:01 PM

That reaction he got when he got his hands on Punk is still one of my favorite Raw moments in forever. It was like jumping into a fucking time machine for one night to when wrestling was white hot.

That was my dream match for the WrestleMania the year after Ryback got hot.

Instead they went with Ryback jobbing clean to Mark Henry and Triple H getting his win back against Lesnar. Ridiculous.

mike adamle 06-19-2018 07:45 PM

Maybe he got released after the big boot he gave Daniel Bryan. Honestly I haven't really been watching the weekly tv, has Bryan been taking head bumps?

Savio 06-19-2018 08:01 PM

Perhaps Cass didn't want to Job in the gauntlet match and Vince blew his stack.

Exactly this. WWE had gold with THE RYBACK but they had to let that no talent, straight edge pussy, CM Punk go over. Now they let a decent rassler go bc he beat up a midget? Thats funny. Everything is too PC nowdays. They'd probably fire JBL now days bc he made anti immigrant videos and now everyone hss gone soft. WWE pushes idiots like Balor, Bobby (only over bc of his dumb theme song) Roode, and the Super Vegan soyboy. UGH!

There was no medical reason for his forced retirement. Half a dozen doctors have confirmed this

Daniel Bryan should have stayed retired. He's only over bc of the YES chants and bc of Kane getting him over. And their therapist. Mainly him.
