A total of 18 stars were part of the recent WWE releases and Bray Wyatt had his say
WWE did it again as they cut 18 names from the main roster and NXT due to various reasons.
Names such as Karrion Kross, Scarlett Bordeaux, Mia Yim, Keith Lee and Franky Monet were all released.
Nia Jax was another big name cut and some reports suggested this was due to her unvaccinated status.
Budgets were also brought up as WWE continued cutting its roster. Many of these names had just moved to the main roster, like Kross, B-Fab and even Lee, who was returning to action after a huge battle with Covid-19.
WWE doesn’t seem to be making a lot of friends with these moves, and another former star hit out at them in his own way.
Bray Wyatt was one of the big names cut recently, and the former WWE Champion posted an interesting message on Twitter:
“What do we do now?
“We wait for the right place.
“We wait for the right time.
“Then we turn Rome to Ashes.
‘Groveling in the muck of avarice’
“I believe in you too”
There could be several interpretations regarding his message with some fans believing this was a hint of what his next step could be.
AEW is a promotion that has been linked with Wyatt since his release. However, The Eater of Worlds could also end up on Impact where his creative juices could flow.
AEW has become a sort of home for released WWE talent, and it will be interesting to see if they pick up any of the 18 released so far.
WWE has been doing these cuts for a long time, and some of the decisions are baffling. Wyatt remains one of the biggest free agents in the wrestling world and everyone is keen to know where he will end up given his no-compete clause ended.
