Morrison is a HUGE loss. I don’t understand that one at all.

I feel like AEW is the far superior company with their storylines and how they treat the wrestlers. Their roster is starting to get bloated now but yet I want them to keep on signing the big names.

All of Hit Row gone I believe. Were they any good? Were they over?
They were good in NXT. They didn’t get a lot of time though, they looked like they would replace undisputed

They should definitely sign Tegan Nox. She is probably better than Ruby and Ember.

Is it safe to say WWE has no short term or long term plans for a lot of the talent? Why bring back Eva Marie and Maverick simply to release them a short time later? Why build up these characters in NXT, bring them up to the main roster then release them a couple weeks after their debut and repeated TV time? (Kross and Hit Row, maybe others) Obviously they have some vision for some talent but they also make moves that leave you scratching your head.

On another note, apparently WALTER is more open to moving to the US.

cool so they can just cut him too?
Yeah probably. He’s only 6’4”


Also, the rumor is that Moxley was going to win the tournament at Full Gear and turn heel in the process. His character was already trending that way.

I think she might not have recovered fully from all those knee surgeries.
I doubt that, she was obviously cleared by their doctors.

Tough day for the ‘WWE is more inclusive’ crowd between her and Hit Row.

Morrison, I could see him asking to leave after Taya was cut and they forgot about him without Miz. Is he a major loss? Not really. Not any of these people really, just extremely shitty.

Basically if you’re trying to make it in WWE:


Vince: “Hey man, you Samoan?”
Aspiring Wres…. Sports entertainer: “Nope, I’m not”
Vince: “Next”

Seriously, this company will be basically Roman, Seth, a few cousins and some jacked dude from the PC in 6 months.

It's just that she's had 3 major surgeries on her knees and before her last one it looked a bit like she had lost a step. I'm not the first one who thought before/during her matches "please don't get injured please don't get injured".

Anybody can get injured at any time, for any thing.

I'm honestly surprised they didn't release Morrison and Hit Row when they released Monet and B Fab.

Tho, I just don't get why they would release wrestlers who were reportedly getting pushes on the Main Roster while actually looking good.

I can see where that one might actually fit the whole "budget" mantra. IIRC, Morrison signed when there where rumors AEW was interested in him and at some point he said the offer he got from WWE was "too good to refuse" or something like that.

I like Morrison but if I'm Tony Khan, I wouldn't sign him. He's over 40, doesn't have much star power and signing him would support the (false) narrative that AEW is signing all the ex-WWE guys.

Morrison seems better suited for Impact.

I don't know enough about the other released wrestlers to comment on whether AEW should scoop them.

What the f*** kind of an argument it that? She's had THREE major ACL or whatever surgeries. Those knees ain't got much life left in them, when it comes to sports activities.
Why call her up?
Why call her up and put her in a tag team with Shotzi?
Why call her up and have said tag team go over the champions at the time 3x?

You have to stop. She was cleared, they obviously just stopped giving a shit like usual.

You're asking the wrong person.

Chachi, Chachi, Chachi, you nees to try reading before making up an agenda that you think the post has. All I was saying is that she has long history of major knee woes that always makes the fans think she might get injured at any moment again.

What do fans have to do with anything? So she was cut because fans think she’s going to get injured?

Think, dude.
