 What's good? Josh or Ross back out again with another video. So WWE releases 10 superstars man. The real reason why man more individuals were just released today You knew it was coming people were you know, speculating a few weeks back that That we're gonna be some more releases from WWE So we're about to check out who they are and potentially why they were released, but uh, it's it's another unfortunate situation I wonder if it'll be due to Budget cuts, you know, maybe maybe that's what it is. Maybe uh, they didn't have enough Enough, I guess financial funding for these these wrestlers. Who knows what could be the possible reason, but uh We're gonna check it out, man. It's I'm very unfortunate But uh, let's see who and why they were released It is WrestleMania here back with another news video Sadly, it's the day all wrestling fans dread the day WWE makes mass cuts to their own roster And today there have been a total of 10 releases and all of them come from the nxt brand Oh, no, there are actually some surprising names that have been given the chop by WWE And these include a former title holder. Well, which ones are they? Well, join us now as WrestleMania looks at 10 and we just watched the video on how uh, uh Ember Moon was having so much trouble in nxt and and why she ended up leaving so yeah, but See what's going on here? WWE releases today and examine the real reason why WWE has decided to fire them all be sure to subscribe and hit that notification bell for daily wrestling videos and follow us on Facebook for exclusive lists I hate this for anybody, honestly Now just before the releases even took place Shawn Ross app of fightful.com tweeted nxt releases are coming and the first name that was announced to have been released was Malcolm Bivens Bivens has been in a managerial role in the diamond mine for some time now and his release comes as quite a huge I may not know it's so many things because I don't really watch nxt like that anymore So some of these things I'm going to be kind of foreign on Uh, maybe not if you know Maybe all of them. I may be foreign on because once again, I don't watch nxt So we'll see if I recognize some of the individuals that are Uh reportedly being let go price Bivens was extremely popular with fans and he appeared to have a close connection with the other superstars in the locker room Shawn Ross app offered some insight into why Bivens had been released. He tweeted Fightful has learned that Malcolm Bivens has been released by WWE The company had asked him to resign in February and he made it clear that he didn't want to do so So at least we can't even blame wwe on this side as it looks like the decision was mainly down to Bivens wanting to part ways with the company According to fightful select Bivens only resigned his last wwe contract when he was promised television time This was when wwe created the diamond mine But this has done very little to satisfy him and he's made it abundantly clear that he would not be convinced into Resigning this time around Now it was said that the team behind wwe's digital content were in favor of giving bivens more television time He has a humorous yet engaging social media presence But this side of bivens doesn't truly come across on television Now it's understandable why bivens has been frustrated as he has so much to offer But his television time is kept extremely limited And then again half of the talent behind the scenes would always love some more television time But bivens has a bright future ahead of him and someone of his stature would be a great fit in AEW or even impact wrestling Now to be honest without a doubt the most shocking name to be released today was Dakota Kai Oh man Wow That's wild Dakota Kai Dakota was one of the top female stars in nxt and fans had assumed that she was destined for the main roster She even took part in a number of main roster dark matches where she actually managed to defeat aliyah and kora jade But she also got defeated by the likes of exactly in the mario miller With those losses it was clear that they did very little to impress wwe higher ups Dakota had an extremely successful run in nxt as she was one half of the inaugural nxt women's tag team champions Alongside Raquel Gonzalez Who's actually now made it to the main roster and was consistently featured on television in meaningful story lines Yeah Her departure is going to hit nxt hard and fans of dakota have taken to social media to question wwe's decision making And ask what the hell wwe were thinking and releasing one of the most promising stars Shayna basilar took to twitter and said dakota kai is far and away one of the best wrestlers I've ever been in the ring with and the gap is large now watch it grow Beth phoenix even commented on twitter saying dakota kai is a leader and an outstanding talent One of my favorite women wrestlers and a lovely human being shaza mckenzie even tweeted imagine not having anything for dakota kai baffling Yeah, it is baffling now according to an exclusive report by fightful select Dakota was said to have seen the release coming and she had no plans to renew her wwe contract once it expired This is an interesting revelation from fightful as it's clear that dakota saw the writing on the wall And was clearly dissatisfied with how she was being booked on nxt Interestingly she won the nxt women's title with Raquel once again just a few weeks ago So it appears as if wwe were trying to appease her but this had a little to no effect Was dakota's aim to be called up to the main roster? After all that is where the big money is and she couldn't stay in nxt forever Now more details will likely come out in relation to her situation And were actually led to her having no plans to resign a new wwe contract Now there will naturally be a ton of interest from various companies in signing dakota as fans have already began to suggest on social media That tony can't sign dakota to a deal and this would be a smart move on behalf of the aww president dakota would be a great fit in the aww women's division and someone with her skill set could really elevate the division to a new height Yeah, definitely. I could see her in aww. They could definitely use some more more women in a division as well Now it's important to note that all the release talent from today have a 30 day non-compete clause So in theory dakota could be on aww programming by the end of may Damn, bro. That's really It's crazy only because it's like She had some prominent feuds in nxt quite enjoyable ones I like when she turned went rogue on teagan knocks. I enjoyed that That was cool. And then I like when she went rogue on uh rakel gonzalez, too Like she's just known for going rogue on teammates. It was great. They had some good matches. Good feuds Man, I don't know bro. She's had some pretty good matches. I'm aww man. That is wild I'm she seen right on the wall. It seems like people just not they know they're not really gonna get the television time Then I get called up to the main roster Nothing's really happening for them on nxt So they're not resigning their contracts and they kind of know what's gonna happen there at some point file It's crazy. And now this another big name was dex talumis And I hadn't really been watching them much But you guys have been telling me oh y'all love y'all some dex talumis y'all been saying this a lot I've been seeing well, I wouldn't say a lot. I've seen some people say they like dex talumis Uh, I I want to rephrase that I want to say some people y'all been saying y'all y'all like dex talumis Like his person and all this other stuff But it's still surprising because he is the least someone that I know Who he is From you know, just outside, you know on the nxt brand. So A lumis's storyline with indy heart well on nxt was definitely well received and did huge numbers for WWE on social media and youtube It appears as if lumis was in the shuffle after the storyline began to fizzle out fans quickly lost interest in him That's kind of a pity that wwe didn't go back to the drawing board with him and come up with a new and exciting Storyline for him It seems like such a shame to release someone who did exceptionally well with such an unorthodox Romantic storyline with indy heart well and just suddenly release him now before he stepped foot in nxt He had an infamous run in tna as samuel shore So it's certainly possible that lumis will find his way back to his former promotion Another big name includes the likes of harland harland was featured on nxt television alongside joe gacy But clearly wwe didn't see didn't see too much equity in keeping him on the roster Now one stage harland was compared to a young brock lesnar due to their similarities in appearance Once the wwe decided to have harland shave his head These comparisons quickly went away Still his booking was strong much like lesnar back in the day But the report from fightful select added that wwe officials were Unimpressed with how little harland had progressed in the ring and therefore decided to release him from his contract A number of other talents have been released today that never even made their television debuts Wow page principally vish kanya draco anthony Drail and divine I don't know johnny george and miller melani the final name released today though was persia parota Who signed with wwe just last year and notably had a small storyline with indy heart well on nxt tv Now according to fightful select all of these releases mainly come down to budget cuts It's always the budget cuts infamous budget cuts Plus the report adds that most of the release stars seem in good spirits Fightful select also reports that they've spoken to an nxt official who has cited frustration coming from their releases It is said that the staff at nxt received no prior notice of the releases happening And consequently this has created problems in the creative department A number of release stars were penciled in for current and future storylines And this has now meant that the nxt creative team have to amend any plans They had to include the release stars on television Seriously, the guy who's probably creating the roster for wwe 2k 23 is probably pulling his hair out right now A wwe has a habit of making mass budget cuts around this time of the year normally just after WrestleMania as they did so with wrestlemania 36 and 37 Just last year wwe released notable stars such as bri wire and baron stroman And this was clear and this was a clear sign to fans and fellow wwe stars that nobody is safe from getting released My releases are always bad for the locker room morale, especially when wwe is releasing talents such as dakota kai and malcom bivins wwe released more superstars than ever in 2021 And there were numerous reports that the locker room morale dipped whenever a new batch of releases hit And the morale of the locker room impacts everything from how wwe superstars perform in the ring To how they promote the product in interviews with media outlets wwe have to be extremely careful in executing budget cuts around this time of year as a miserable talent roster could be Insanely damaging to their own product There is no news on whether wwe plans to make any cuts to talent on the main roster But if they do we will certainly keep you posted We are wrestling your wish all the best to the release wwe superstars Which one are you most shocked about that is That's why bro. I just want y'all to understand It's it's very unfortunate anybody that ends up losing their their job, especially something that they love Is is it's really unfortunate, bro And uh, I Going to you know I feel for the individuals and hopefully they're able to find some work In another company and uh, they're able to get utilized You know the way they want to be utilized, you know utilized correctly actually seen And and be appreciated for for their craft and their work, you know, and I can only hope for that. You feel me? It's just it's very unfortunate The most surprising one is dakota car because I would think at some point they would have Brought her up to the main roster. I like I think she could do Fairly well. I mean they need more women on the main roster But I guess they weren't impressed or happy with what they saw when she did a couple dark matches On her main roster, but still man. I don't know. I just that's somebody I think they could have used They definitely could have used On the main roster for sure, man. I don't know. I think that's I think that was a mistake on their part. I could be wrong But uh comment down below. Let me know. Did any of these releases actually surprise you the most for me Definitely dakota car because I I would have at least thought at some point They would bring it to the main roster She could definitely do some definitely do some good things there, but I guess WWE's thought otherwise, but appreciate all love and support Rotate carry appreciate y'all kicking me. See y'all next time. Peace
