We might get releases soon. Who gets canned?
>>19518770nobody, they can just send them to AAA
>>19518770there will be zero investment into WWE going forward, the only way to raise profits further is by trimming everything out that they can. within a few years most of the shows will be out of vegas or saudi arabia and the roster will be nothing but old shitters and no names who want to sign the mark contract and make less than average UFC fighters.
>>19518774They're not slaves
>Aleister Black>Apollo Crews>B-Fab>Bo Dallas>Corey Graves>Cesaro>LA Knight>Nikki Cross>Rusev>Thea Hail>Zoey Stark
all I want is for my nigga Tozawa to escape paulcatraz already
so what absolute shitter got told this, couldn't take it and then told dirt sheets it was a blanket statement?
>>19518786They just threw huge money at brock and aj to return
>>19518790>Cesaro
gunther will get canned
>>19518770>Who gets canned?
>>19518829And people are going to lose their jobs to facilitate those raises.
>>19518832Why not? Dude has been in catering for years and he can join his twin brother in AEW.
>>19518840in your dreams, mondrone
>>19518844Good if they don't draw
it's probably gonna be the ones that are already on the outs with Triple H and/or don't kiss his ass just to get a push:> Apollo Crews> LA Knight> Rusev> Drew McIntyre> Austin Theory> Tamina Snuka> Corey Graves> B-Fab> Michin> Becky Lynch - she may not get released, but WWE-TKO are currently making her workplace life a living hell in retaliation for her outing Triple H for being just as much of a sex pest as Vince was... so much so to the point she'll be forced to quit and Hunter will have her permanently disavowed just out of spite.> Lyra Valkyria - WWE/TKO will publicly claim that Lyra got fired for refusing to sluttify herself like Liv in 2024 just to get more TV time and clout from getting cheap pushes, but really they'll fire her for being associated with Becky.> Seth Rollins - he'll be mad that his wife is gone, he'll probably quit WWE in protest of her mistreatment at the hands of WWE-TKO. Expect dozens of podcast interviews from him getting mad at Hunter and the WWE in the near future.he's not letting go of Charlotte, Rhea Ripley, Stephanie Vaquer, Nia Jax, Jade Cargill, Naomi, Sami Zayn, Aleister Black, the Wyatt Sicks, Pretty Deadly, MCMG, Johnny Gargano and Ciampa, Chelsea Green, Maxxine Dupri, and Zelina Vega etc.
>>19518855Brock and AJ are vastly overpaid comparative to their drawing power.
>>19518914they're both leaving in the next year
>>19518854Kek bodied that jit
>>19518914Aj yeah Brock is a forever top guy
>>19518914Faggot identified
>>19518914actually, Brock Lesnar's pay rate to match his drawing power is justified. He's earned the right to draw in his very few fleeting appearances of 2025.it's Roman Reigns who is vastly overpaid for lack of drawing power, and just like AJ Lee, they're both never here, they never show up to work, and especially for AJ Lee, it's very sad that CM Punk is a piece of shit person yet he still shows up to work and puts in the work every week, unlike her and Reigns who just steal money from TKO to do fuck all to justify their pay rates. AJ Lee is a lazy piece of shit, Roman Reigns is a lazy piece of shit.
>>19518939>>19518940I love Brock and think he's one of the best ever but WWE are doing the same business without him.>>19518943I don't see what Brock brings that wasn't there.
>>19518854>mondroneIs this some boogeyman thing? Regardless she shot her way into a winning a belt kek. She's 3 years deep into an otherwise fruitless developmental career. She has no discernible or marketable character. The most she can speak of is leeching off Chase U and Joe Hendry. She's essentially Blue Pants 2.0. Not saying she's getting cut immediately. She can't until the move the title off of her. Beyond that though
I mean other than Allie Kat basically being confirmed for the Rumble i haven't heard much about them possibly bringing people in
>>19518770ACTUALLY that says is that WWE isn't interested in TNA shitters they already have on a leash or CM Phil wack pack luggage handlers like Dan Hausen, the fed is still looking to poach from wherever they can
>>19518900Lyra, nor Becky or seff are leaving.But Becky used her "creative" to bury Lyra and nuke the ratings and that is the bottom line.>>19519047TNA is already part of WWE so is obvious they don't want their own talent.But AEW, is obvious that besides Jericho, they don't want to talk with people who spit on the plate they ate like Big Show
>>19518786>[smark headcanon]Meanwhile in reality, WWE is going to do what it always does: periodically cut dead weight and make record profits. It'll stay #1 and you'll stay seething.
>>19519063>people who spit on the plate they ateGMS
>>19518770>AEW talentSo who's the traitor?
>>19519088mjf
>>19519063>But AEW, is obvious that besides Jericho, they don't want to talk with people who spit on the plate they ate like Big Showthen why did they re-sign Aleister Black and Rusev
>>19519130They begged sorry and understood that the promised land they saw was nothing but smoke and mirrors on par with WCW and Brittish Wrestling.Also russev was part of Southpaw Wrestling
>>19518770Foley lmao
>>19518900Tamina knows where the bodies are buried so she has a lifetime job there.
>>19519153at least Tamina's no longer the worst overall female wrestler in the WWE anymore, even though she hasn't really wrestled since 2023.
>>19519130Because Vince let them go and Triple H wanted them back and he let them know that about as soon as he was in the position to make those calls>>19519063>But AEW, is obvious that besides Jericho, they don't want to talk with people who spit on the plate they ate like Big ShowI think it depends on the case too. Big Show was already phased out of being an active wrestler. They were doing the same to Christian. Mark Henry as well. Kind of quietly retiring these guys. They welcomed back Mark so maybe they even would entertain the others. But as far as like a Jericho or Edge goes who were still active and featured in-ring talent I'm sure WWE would take them back in a heartbeat and they'd be right to do so
>>19518790>Apollo Crewsnever ever
>>19518770Surely these guys are due for a release because they've been doing absolutely nothing of note>Apollo Crews>Johnny Gargano>R Truth >Angelo Dawkins>Akira Tozawa>Otis>British Creed>Grayson Waller>LWO in it's entirety>Carmelo Hayes>NakamuraWith the "high profile" releases being>Damien Priest>Alestier Black>Rusev
>>19519454>R truthInjured>Otishe is at AAA and came back, it worked wonders for him>TozawaNot leaving either>CreedLeaving>WallerNot leaving either>LWOAll ate at AAA>CarmelloHe Needs to leave Smackdown for RAW>NakamuraHe is retiring in 2026Also the high profiles had their contracts renewedit is far more easier to see zoey leaving as the rest of the mean girls of the locker room who were friends with Cora and her pimp friend
RIP Drew and Knight
>>19519454Hunter's not gonna release Damian Priest. He's protected because he's friends with Triple H and Rhea Ripley.
>>19519083You simp for billionaire kikes online for free because of fake wrestling? That’s grim.
>>19519486they’re fine, someone has to do the jobs
>>19519502I just point out reality. It's not my fault reality favors WWE. If you don't like it then blame God for the booking.
There is very little fat to cut on the main roster.
>>19518770I can legitimately see Seth or Kevin getting released because of how much they're paid and how often they're injured
>>19519656You can cut the entire SmackDown tag division and Raw's (except AJ & Lee) without affecting much.MFTs except Solo.Aleister Black and Zelina Vega, if they didn't give Black the title with his push then he'll never be a main eventer.Theory because the masked man thing didn't amount to anything.Bayley isn't doing much.
>>19519083>>19519590>REALITYyeah, that you’re a retard who sucks Jewish Neoliberal/Lolbert Cock.
>>19519083>make cuts to workers and record profits>this is a good thinghow did you end up like
I bet they told Cardona that because he wouldn't stop texting them about coming back kek
>>19518900Rusev getting dropped would be amusing because there's no way Tony would take him back after refusing to do anything in AEW near the end. That wouldn't leave him too many options since I doubt NJPW or CMLL would want to deal with him either once they heard from Rocky.
>>19518770They should release Cena for giving up and breaking contract.
>>19519992because I don't like 90% of wrestlers so I want to see them fired and humiliated
>>19520127Dude he fucking took back Andrade, of course he'd take Rusev back
>>19520146Andrade is known for workrate, rusev is just shit
>>19520146Andrade didn't refuse anything Tony wanted him to do and Tony doesn't give a shit that Andrade smacked Sammy around. Plus Andrade never bad mouthed AEW even after he left.
>>19520146ThisHe'd take everyone who ever "left him" except ironically CM Punk, he'd sooner fold AEW and sell it
>>19520127He'd just go to TNA. One of the "benefits" of the TNA partnership is that they can take talent off the TKO books while keeping them in the WWE orbit. That's why TKO is not going to outright buy the company themselves, they're trying to get Lorenzo Fertitta to buy it.
>>19519819Common decency rule is you don't cut people while they are injured
>>19520149>Andrade didn't refuse anything Tony wanted him to doTony didn't want him to fight other talent backstage. How'd that go?
Realistically >michin>bfab After Jade Btfos them >kiana >mcmg or profits(presumably Angelo but he’s also at natties gym so maybe not)>war raiders >creeds>thea
Wholia for sure
>>19518770i heard john cenas contract wont be renewed
>>19519819Okay Drew, stop posting now.
>>19518770AAA makes things weird to predict with the Latino guys. I don't think it's as simple as "they'll just dump them down there". You've got the Lucha Bros, Dom, and El Grande got over out of nowhere that will actually make you money when you send them down there. They really don't need the LWO in any facility when they could just use their own guys, they're just straight up dead weight. I think Dragon Lee is also an expiring that I could easily see not being picked up.Miz is also supposed to be up at the end of the year but I don't see them letting him walk yet.Besides the obvious disappearing acts and shitters that have already been mentioned, keep an eye out on Raquel Rodriguez. No really knows what her deal is because she disappeared for like a year because of the Mast Cell disease but her original deal should've been up by now.
>>19520799You can't afford an Orlando condo on a AAA contract. None of these marks are dedicated to be a gringo mark in a Mexico city slum just for the hope the TKO rabbis might let them crawl back. Door Dash is a better option literally.
>>19520799>Lucha Bros, Dom, and El Grande got over out of nowhereFound the Indian
>>19518770its because nobody is worth hiring. excluding ex wwe wrestlers nobody in aew is a draw. and its even worse for tna. why invest in total nobodies when they have dozens of nobodies in nxt
>>19520872cope
Crews must have dirt on somebody because he seems to conviently escape spring cleaning ever year
and now that John Cena's gone from the WWE, expect Zack Ryder to get released from the company once again now that there's no real reason for them to want to keep him around without Cena vouching for him.
>>19518900Kek. Hunter loves Seff plus Seff & Becko are in the Cody clique along with Zayn & Owens. You'll never see the end of any of them.
>>19518770Jericho immediately upon returning
>>19522413not after Becky and Seth went on that Bert Kreischer show. Becky is no longer in good standing with Hunter, hence why she got made to:> get booked to look like a fool during the Women's WarGames match> eat the submission loss as it was her (and not Asuka, Kairi, Nia and Lash Legend) that submitted to AJ Lee's Black Widow submission move.> do the weird protesting gimmick angle feud Raw GM Adam Pearce and female WWE referee Jessika Carr as punishment for exposing Triple H as a bigger horndog than Vince, thus keeping Becky off of TKO's TV screens and out of matches.the signs are already right there in front of us that Becky's no longer getting any significant pushes.
>>19518900add Titus O'Neil to the next list of cuts because he's never done anything really, since Hunter took over WWE.
>>19522445Her and Seth telling every single interviewer that they are already thinking of retirement soon is probably another reason. Why push someone who already mentally has left?
>>19524392He's a big deal backstage as a brand ambassador and was repping tko at the fight last night
Seth would probably go to AEW if he does quit in protest of Becky getting mistreated at the hands of WWE-TKO. He's ok to take the money and do nothing.Becky might move on to Hollywood like she did when she did Happy Gilmore in 2024and as someone who's yet to be a solidified star, Lyra would do a lot of better in Major League Wrestling under Court Bauer.
>>19518770Ship is sinking
>>19518774That's still on the TKO payroll
>>19518770Brock LesnarRandy OrtonOmosIyo SkyLiv MorganLyra ValkyriaGrayson WallerSolo Sikoa
>>19520137Yeah cause you’re a Anti Smark Obese Retard who cries about anything Promotion that’s not WWE.Lmao
>>19520872Nope.Wrestling Promotions hire anyone.Meanwhile GAYWWE and GAYEW are neoliberal and lolbert shitholes that you retards keep sucking off
>>19518790they aren't firing zoey, they'll wait until her injury is healed, bring her back to job and then run out her contract and not renew her like they did with dakota>>19518798so he can rape more monkeys?
>>19518770More evil stuff from>wwHeel
>>19518851His twin brother is Mario the baker and he isn't in aew, he's in a little known bakery in venice making oven fired pizzas
>>19518790Looks like a dlc pack 2k would try sell
What's the big deal? WWE already has too many wrestlers. Why do people expect them to perpetually hire every shitter?All the big names are either locked into contracts with them or others or already signed. There's nobody left really that would make them want to sign asap.
>>19529162WWE has a very weak aging roaster actually
>>19520889>>19529115>Wrestling Promotions hire anyone.ok then who do you think the wwe should hire from aew or tna? they dont need anyone at the moment.
>>19529144Oh great even pizza is getting fired
People say this every few months and it never happens>>19522406He's not signed is he?
>>19529469But they are not signing new people, what makes you think they are going to sign you?
>>19518770Wyatt SHITsAleister BlackedPoosevMia Ying Yong
>>19522406Cardona is at TNA, he wont be released.Same goes to Ziggler Nemeth.>>19524445Seff and her are old and needs to settle down and have kids.She isn't Trish who is 50 and is permanently locked at 39 because she never skips leg day, plus she also works backstage as booker and creative for raw's women division.Far more easier for her to take the backstage side so she has more time for her kids as seff.Also seff became too injure prone after the crossfit faggotry.>>19529584Because in business terms, what they have now is better for the next 4 years to come, all contracts are renewed for 2 or 4 years, the veterans are retiring or taking backstage roles, AEW isn't going to survive by 2027, TNA is on a huge boost and going to AMC where they can improve due, the deal with AAA helped their roster and got over there like Otis, Kaiser and some of the NXT talent, and what they have at NXT right now is proving to be worthy of carrying WWE for the 2030's.If they are going to release people, it will be the likes of Zayda and such who became notorious backstage or people who wants to go back to indies.Also Thea isn't going nowhere.If anything, what she did now probably helped to improve whatever they had in plan in first place for the US belt, and undid what people were criticizing for years, even austin, and recently Seff, that wrestlers instead of staying at the building til the tapings are done, are leaving soon.Thea managed to undo that, and now all of those lazy chucklefucks has to stay til the end now.
>>19520653>>michinYes. Maybe? They've kept her this long so who knows>>bfabFor sure>>kianaNah. She's still a newer prospect in a way>>mcmgDoubt it>profits(presumably Angelo but he’s also at natties gym so maybe not)I think Montez and Bianca are trying to have a kid so they're probably safe for now>>war raidersVery possible and should be>>creedsVery possible and should be>>theaKek I doubt it so soon but probably in the next year. They won't want it to look like it's because of the title thing so they'll let some time pass even though it will 100% be because of the title thing
Some of you guys just sound like you hate wrestling
>>19530007Welcome to /pw/ where it is just /v/ but worse
>>19529111This thread is about WWE you dense tard
>>19529308WWE should just hire athletes from NCAA and NAIA and NJCAA but they’re too fucking cheap, lazy, greedy to do all of that.>>19530379WWE is shit since the death of Vince McMahon SR.
>>19530481WWE got better as soon as Vince McMahon Jr took over and along with Hulk Hogan, made it into the global juggernaut it has been today.
>>19530481>WWE should just hire athletes from NCAA and NAIA and NJCAAwhy should they hire people that failed in their chosen profession. they need to find interesting looking monsters again and stop hiring boring midgets
>>19518900>seff getting firedplease, please
>>19530907Lol bro is about to win the rumble
>>19518790>Crews and B-fab DEI vaxxed and immune to firing
>>19529138even before the knee injury (I still think it's Kairi's fault for Zoey's injury), Zoey Stark almost got released with Shayna Baszler months ago because of her own behavior but then WWE-TKO decided to keep her because she's younger and seemed to have way more upside than Baszler and Sonya Deville, but she was told to just watch what she say from now on. Not saying Zoey has to be a complete corporate asskisser, but just stop with her backstage antics.
>>19518770>We aren't hiring ANYONE!!!>Uhh... Hey... Knock Out Brothers... You wanna make a million dollars?>>19518840They'll have her sit out at least 6 months of her contract. They have to cool her off after a title win before they let her go, otherwise she could draw a nickel somewhere else.
>>19530956Zoey's not even that much younger, she's 31. And it was whoever set up the match's fault>It's Kairi's first match back after like 6 months?>better have her do a timing spot with Zoey
>>19530978There's bullshit and other kind of bullshit, of course they are looking for new hires, they won't stop looking for NIL talent either, but the fact is also that they've never been more stacked in the roster and with people they barely got anything for on tv or house shows
>>19530956what did zoey do to get in trouble? no dirt sheets have reported this, you’re pulling this out of your ass.
>>19530871>Global Juggernaut Only in America.There’s literally it.Live Events around the world doesn’t count considering Mexico is dominated by CMLL and Japan is dominated by NJPW, AJPW, NOAH and Europe is dominated by their own promotions and Canada has their own promotions.>>19530904>Le people that failed in their chosen profession Lmao, now i can tell that you’re just a retarded ant smark who got bullied by Athletes in high school and college and don’t know shit about NCAA, NAIA, NJCAA.>MidgetsMe when i’m this retarded
Anyone saying B Fab is showing their racism. She's literally the black Maxine and has improved drastically this year.
>>19531095>Midgetsyes midgets. bro how many times over the years have promoters tried to hire athletes from other fields? and how many of those dudes succeed? they have a 98% failure rate. guarantee you especially today it would be because they think of pro wrestling as a joke and the only reason they are doing it is because they couldnt make it anywhere else or flopped. look at rousey
>>19518900>releasing DrewThe Rock called him personally about his renewal. He didn't help with the renegotiations, but Dwayne will want to be sure he stays around for the full term of the contract, if not longer. Because if Drew leaves for any reason there will be the appearance that Dwayne couldn't keep him in the fold and his ego won't be able to handle it if he's perceived as not being able to persuade him to stay.
>>19531234honestly, if Drew gets cut, it's on Triple H for holding a grudge against him for being a Vince guy to the point he makes him lose all the time, just out of spite. It's on Hunter for wasting him so much, all because Drew don't kiss his ass like most of Hunter's favorites.
>>19531524Drew is literally one of the biggest names on the entire show. If you think Triple H hates him because he's not holding the prop belt right now, you are literally a fucking mark.
>>19531109Except she was already fired before for being shit, is the only member of Hit Row who hasn't gotten released again yet, and isn't a fraction as over nor competent in the ring as Maxxine has become. But I'm sure she would just love that you're using her race as the reason she should stay
>>19531535Drew is not exactly one of Triple H's favorites. He's in the same camp as LA Knight, I don't understand why Drew was complaining about Knight botching at the 2025 Royal Rumble, even though they're in the same camp of neither guy being a Triple H favorite.
