I don't want to see anyone lose their jobs, but there are so much better uses for the Good Brothers out there.
Given that Anderson was getting $750,000 in New Japan, and I doubt he jumped to the WWE for too much less, it's easy to imagine Gallows & Anderson costing something like $1.5 million a year. They might be the biggest bust since Mark Henry's initial 10-year, $10 million contract.

Rhyno, as much as I love him, is on a nostalgia run. If they are cutting talent, it makes sense for him to take the hit. I'd rather him stay around and work with younger talent on the cheap though. Rhyno is better at comedy than Gallows & Anderson too.

I'd agree with all of this. The Good Brothers are genuinely really funny guys, I fell in love with Gallows all the way back in 2010 or so the first time he was on Colt Cabana's podcast - and the two of them have been on several podcasts with Jericho that were hilarious.

But in terms of WWE humor I never really saw how it would work out. They're not strictly comedy acts, in Japan they had a unique blend going for them where they were a credibly booked tag team and would add elements of goofiness to them in promos and in the occasional match but they were never a full-blown comedy team. That's what WWE tried to make them be after The Club ended and it's just been awkward. Let them be naturally funny, not forcing them with stuff like "NERRRRRRRRRRRRRDS!"

I imagine they'll either go back to Japan or find work in ROH or something.

Only downside for Anderson is that he signed over the rights of the Karl Anderson name. So he'll have to become Chad "2 Badd" Anderson or something.
