So, today, let’s talk about WWE releases. Yeah, the pro wrestling world, always full of surprises, right? I started digging into this after seeing some news about it, and man, it’s a wild ride.
First off, I went through the list of recent releases. Not just the big names, but also some of the NXT folks. It’s always a bummer to see people go. Then, I started looking into the dates. Like, Nunzio on November 6, 2024, and a few others like Baron Corbin, Tegan Nox, and Indi Hartwell earlier on November 1st. October 1st, 2024, that was another day when some people got let go. Just trying to keep track of it all, you know?
- Looked up the names – not just the superstars, but some of the undercard talents too.
- Checked the dates – some in November, some earlier. It’s a whole timeline.
- Read some backstage news – apparently, it was kind of a downer mood with all these releases happening.
Then, I started wondering about the money side of things. How much do these wrestlers make? Turns out, the average is around $125,952 a year. That’s like, $60.55 an hour, or about $2,422 a week. Not bad, but also, it’s a tough gig. I compared this info with some of the names, wondering who was getting paid what.
The Business Side
I also dug into who’s running the show now – TKO Group Holdings. They went public in 2023, which is a big deal. I tried to understand how this affects the wrestlers. Business stuff, you know, it’s not just about what happens in the ring.
And there’s this guy, Omos. I found out he’s with WWE and also doing stuff with Pro Wrestling Noah. He’s a tag team champ there. I was like, “Wow, this guy’s busy!” Followed his journey a bit, just to see what a current wrestler’s life is like.
In the end, I put together all this info, just trying to make sense of it. It’s not just about who’s in and who’s out. It’s about the people, their careers, the money, and the whole business behind it. Wrestling’s a lot more than just what you see on TV. It’s a whole world, and honestly, it’s pretty fascinating once you get into it.
