Tucker took shots at WWE after his release and even hinted at Vince McMahon messing things up
The fallout from WWE’s Black Thursday 2021 continued with some stars taking shots at the company.
Many big names such as Samoa Joe, Peyton Royce, Billie Kay and Mickie James were cut. However, some of them haven’t taken too kindly to these releases.
Tucker seems to be one of those stars upset with WWE. Otis and Tucker were part of a great Heavy Machinery tag team but WWE messed with them a lot.
First, they brought up this love angle between Otis and Mandy Rose. That kept Tucker on the sidelines as Otis won the Money in the Bank title.
Tucker was then split from Otis and made into a heel. He was missing from TV a lot and did attack Otis a few months back, but that was about it from the big man.
He was one of the stars released recently and hit out at WWE. Many fans brought up how WWE doesn’t like to keep storylines or tag teams for long. The IIconics were another example as they were first split up and then released and Tucker hinted that Vince McMahon doesn’t allow fans to enjoy such moments:
WWE planning releases well in advance?
There also seemed to be some controversy regarding the timing of the WWE releases. Tucker, along with a few of the others, was off TV for a while.
A fan claimed that WWE could have been planning these releases for a while and the former WWE star claimed that was possible.
Further, Otis also tweeted a photo of the pair from their early days. Another fan commented that WWE should never have split the Heavy Machinery team, and Tucker agreed with that.
However, he added that this was out of his control and possibly WWE did as they pleased.
While Tucker wasn’t the biggest name released by WWE, the creative team let him down a lot. He was given no real direction and there was no reason why he was split up with Otis.
The pair were excellent during their NXT and limited days on the main roster. Hopefully, Tucker bounces back and he already has hinted about opening up regarding his release.
