Show Notes
Shaz and Morro are back in the Gorilla Room for a follow-up to last week’s release discussion, this time reacting to the latest names quietly added to WWE.com’s alumni section. The big shock is the departure of The New Day members Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods, alongside MFT members JC Mateo and Tonga Loa.
But this episode isn’t really about the individual releases. Instead, the lads focus on the wider business direction of WWE under TKO Group Holdings, and what the company’s current approach means for professional wrestling as a whole.
How sustainable is the system WWE now operates under? What happens when major stars are cycled out more aggressively? And what impact does all of this have on independent wrestling, where fewer promotions exist as genuine alternatives for released talent?
A broader discussion about modern wrestling economics, talent development, and whether the industry is entering a very different era. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
