• Reason Behind WWE Releasing 29 Year Veteran

WWE Spanish Commentator Carlos Cabrera, who worked for the company for 29 years, was recently released from WWE.

This decision was a shocker to many, as he’s the equivalent of Jim Ross to the Spanish fans.

Fellow former WWE Spanish Commentator Hugo Savinovich confirmed this news:

“As Hugo Savinovich has just reported EXCLUSIVELY for Lucha Libre Online, the legendary announcer in Spanish, Carlos Cabrera, has been fired from WWE after 29 years with the company.”

According to the Wrestling Observer, Cabrera’s release was an age-related decision. He’s 62 years old.
