Eric Bischoff surprised over this WWE star getting released

During the latest edition of his “83 Weeks” podcast, Eric Bischoff commented on the eighteen WWE releases that took place last week. The former WCW Executive Vice President revealed Ember Moon‘s release surprised him.

“I was really disappointed. A couple of them stuck out to me, in particular, Ember Moon was a surprise to me.”

“Only because I worked with Ember for a very brief time back in WWE for an even briefer time. Really really professional, talented, committed individual.”
