WWE Releases A Ton Of Wrestlers, Plus Others

Spring cleaning is here.Kurt Angle (The biggest name of all)

Drake Maverick (He was just a boss and occasional wrestler, though his comments on the release are heartbreaking)

Curt Hawkins (Fair enough)

Luke Gallows/Karl Anderson (They’re the biggest surprises)

Heath Slater (You had to know this was coming)

Eric Young (He never caught on so this isn’t a big shock)

Rowan (That spider thing was death)

Sarah Logan (She never did anything on the main roster)

Mike Chioda (He was around FOREVER)

Mike Kanellis (It was Maria’s world and I think he knew it)

EC3 (For the life of me I will never get how they let him just sit there)

Aiden English (Not much of a shock)

Lio Rush (He was finding his calling but dang that’s a fast fall from grace)

Epico/Primo (Yeah I thought they were already gone too)

Plus a ton of agents being released/furloughed.  This is a rather nutty day and I’m sure there are going to be even more releases coming throughout the day.  That’s a good thing in a way as a lot of these people have been sitting around doing nothing for months.  I never saw why WWE needed this many people in the first place so cleaning out a lot of the space is a smart move, though not the best news for the wrestlers.  It had to happen though and while unfortunate, it makes business sense.
