UPDATE: 17 Wrestlers Have Been Released From WWE Now
There are going to be mass releases in WWE today. The following names have been released from the company so far:
– Dolph Ziggler
– Mustafa Ali
– Emma
– Rick Boogs
– Aliyah
– Elias
– Riddick Moss
– Top Dolla
– Shelton Benjamin
In an update, Sean Ross Sapp is reporting that all of these released superstars have 90-day non-compete clauses, which means they can’t sign with other promotions for the next 3 months, which basically means the rest of 2023.
16-Time WWE World Heavyweight Champion John Cena acknowledged what a workhorse Ziggler was, by tweeting the following:
“One thousand five hundred and fifty four matches. @HEELZiggler #Respect”
Below are the statements of some of the released names:
Shelton Benjamin: “I have been released from my WWE contract. I thank WWE staff, talent, and of course the fans for everything. Something ends, something new begins. Looking forward to my next chapter.”
Riddick Moss: “Well I did it – I graduated from WWE. I know a lot of people think my career really took a downturn once Mr. Levesque (Triple H) took over, but, in actuality, my per match fee skyrocketed through the roof. Other promoters, get ready to back the brinks truck up.”
Mustafa Ali: “I am longer working with WWE. I look forward to the future. Thank you.”
Earlier today, when WWE announced that Elimination Chamber 2024 will take place in Perth, Australia, Emma (who is from Australia) was very happy and tweeted:
“A dream.”
After her release, she tweeted:
“Oops nevermind. I just got released… I am no longer with WWE.”
