Saudi Arabia’s Mansoor has been released from WWE. Below is what he wrote about his release:
“My time at WWE has come to an end, but my career is just beginning. Thank you all! Excited to get back to work.”
After his release, Mansoor went LIVE on Twitch and said that Saudi Arabia initially had a deal with WWE where he couldn’t be booked to lose. This was the reason why Mansoor was booked to defeat names like Dolph Ziggler and Cesaro at the Saudi Arabia premium live events, despite not even being pushed properly on WWE TV.
Mansoor also revealed that an idea was once pitched for Maximum Male Models to work with Cody Rhodes, where Mansoor further pitched that he wanted to do the old “Undashing” disfigured Cody Rhodes protective face mask gimmick:
“I wanted him to hit me with the Cross Rhodes & it would break my nose. Then, I could do Undashing. I wanted to wear the mask like him & do the angle where I thought I was the ugliest person in the world & a horribly disfigured mutant.
Everyone kept saying, ‘we want Male Models to have more edge, we need more aggressive & viscous’. ‘What can we do?’ I kept saying, ‘Break my nose. I’m this viscous goblin’.”
