WWE @WWE
WWE has come to terms on the releases of Braun Strowman, Aleister Black, Lana, Murphy, Ruby Riott and Santana Garrett.

WWE wishes them the best in all of their future endeavors.

Aleister Black's returns to TV with the "Dark Father" stuff... kicks Big E in the head... and basically walks off

at least we can now get Tommy End in AEW in 3 months time

and Strowman was just in a WWE Title match the last time he was on TV if I recall correctly

now... Strowman & Big Red (Rowan) reunite in AEW and take over Dark Order for their fallen Wyatt Family brother Mr. Brodie Lee?

And Lana to AEW MUST happen... right?

Just put her and Miro together and when Kip Sabian comes back from his injury you have a set in stone inter gender tag feud... Kip & Penelope vs. Miro/CJ Perry

The only one I think that could make any difference at all is Braun Strowman. AEW desperately needs more big guys. They already have more than enough cruiserweights and featherweights which is why Murphy won't make a difference.

Aleister Black failed on the main roster because he is a total charisma vacuum. He gives me no reason to care about him. He can't cut promos at all. However AEW fans don't seem to care about characters, they just want small vanilla midgets who can do flips in the ring and WORKRATE.

In a covid world, he isn't a draw? He was also awful with the belt.

Plus there's only so many big man feuds you can do with him. Also he probably had an ego and didn't want to go to the mid card.

If AEW and the internet existed in the 80s I could only imagine what AEW fans would be saying

"REEEE Hogan and Giant don't have enough MOVESET! They have no WORKRATE!"

What. Archer, miro, luchasaurus, cage, hobbs, that big brazilian frick, and now ogoggo. They're pretty stacked. They're just learning how to utilize em.

Edit: shite, I forgot even about Hagar and wardlow

Plus, jeff cobb is on a workingish relationship still with aew.

If they desperately needed another big guy, they'd call him up especially with osprey injured.

He never really was able to connect with me because I think his promos were a bit too one dimensional.

"GRUMBLE GRUMBLE GRUMBLE GET THESE HANDSSSS"

He had the size but he just came off as a bit awkward. The charisma wasn't quite there.

you talking about Cezar Bononi?

he's found himself in a fun little faction with Peter Avalon, Ziggler's brother Ryan Nemeth, & JD Drake

they're mostly a Dark & Elevation act... but I believe they're starting to get over

All of these guys are banished to mid card hell or AEW Dark Elevation because the EVPs of the company(aka the elite) are booking themselves to be the main eventers and belt holders.

What has Cage or Luchasaurus done lately?

That Big Brazilian frick is so popular that you don't even know his name.

Face it, Tony Khan books this promotion to please the smarks, who only want to see vanilla create a wrestler midgets flip in the ring with a dozen false finishes per match and when the match finally ends you always get a run in or post match brawl.

Yep, that guy. I like what I've seen of him so far on dynamite the few times he's been featured.

I really should watch dark and elevation more.

Both are pushed to the moon, so much so that cage is breaking off from FTW to turn face and main event.

And the jurrasic express is literally the most over tag team in AEW that doesn't hold the belts. You kidding? Him and jungle boy pop the crowd hard.
