Dolph Ziggler absolutely shook me, he didn't deserve to be released from his contract he was literally a veteran in WWE 19 years and they let him go, disgraceful
He be joining his brother aew
@@WarDogYtPersonal no he should retire
@@jotarouchiha5950 for sure. There's no point in him wrestling.
Also let's not forget ryan nemeth is a jobber
Fr
I definitely know Dolph Ziggler and Shelton Benjamin have got to be one of the most unexpected WWE releases we’ve got today. They were both criminally underrated in the WWE. And I say they should be in the HOF.
Fr
@@BLACKSTA361no
FACTS.
Really the biggest names are Ziggler, Ali and Benjamin
They would never have shelton Benjamin a star why cause he is african american in vince mcmahon voice
To everyone who was released! On behalf of wrestling fans everywhere, we wish you all well in your future endeavors!
Exactly 💯💯
"Endeavor"(s)
Exactly 👍 The New owner Ari Emmanuel asked for Vince McMahon and Dana white to trim the fat from his payrolls. The endeavor higher ups are responsible for these releases . Not Vince. For all those released I wish them the best .
FACTS.
But Endeavours are what fired them...
Releasing guys like Dolph Ziggler & Elias was a really bad move
Fr
Dolph is really working is comedy career. He’s on my friends show a lot and is very funny it’s also something he’s very passionate about.
Thank god fans don’t managed the board rooms. Letting dolph zig glee is a bad move 😖. [ WWE is racking in money ]
Nobody cared about Elias until now 🤨
Elias wasn’t really doing much but Dolph was definitely a bad idea
Jinder Mahal is still in WWE but Dolph Ziggler is not…
Exactly
For right now maybe
Because of Asian connection
That's ridiculous
I think Dolph is looking to do more outside of the wrestling business so that could be a factor but that being said how has Jinder still in there
Imagine, if LA Knight was still Max Dupri, he’d been apart of this set of cuts
Hell LA was almost fired when he was Max Durpi
They let go of Elias, Dolph and Shelton, but brought back Nia. Yeah, if it was the other way around, I would be happy
Isn't Nia related to The Rock
@@BigHoss1971yes
She’s protected bc of her bloodline / lineage
@@ehlohimwhil5762How? She was fired the last time.
@@redbigunexactly, people act like she wasn't a victim of mass releases in the past.
Dolph was a real Gem for Wwe, unfortunately wwe never understood his worth😢
I didn't expect Dolph Ziggler to be released. I pictured him forming a faction with pretty deadly. Shelton Benjamin was great too. He was great in the Hurt Business. Maybe Ziggler & Shelton Benjamin will be future hall of famers someday. WWE needs US & IC women's championships to be added to the womens mid card. Women like Emma & Aliyah could've maybe filled those roles.
They missed big time on the pretty deadly team up
Womens wrestling isn't interesting, so that will just take up time for the important things
And here was me thinking they were freeing money up for Cm Punk and Jade Cargill.
@@joshuaali2186not interesting for u. Becky Lynch n Trish literally had the best match at payback and charlotte flair n Rhea ripely had the second best match at wrestlemania.
@@sysabeffox bro stop coping, you can't tell me the women's division is anything to close to the men's, its boring and if they have mid card titles that's just gonna take up time on the card for storylines that actually matter
AEW is about to get some pretty good names. Dolph still has a lot in the tank, great on the mic and can sell a snowball in Hell.
AEW is about to get more bloated you mean
I love Ziggler but I doubt AEW is gonna use him better. He'll probably team with his brother and maybe get a tag title reign with him, but other than that he'll probably just be used as another guy. I doubt he'll have the same accolades as he did in WWE through no fault of his own.
I actually don't see khan picking up most except ziggler and maybe ali but only for roh as that is his ceiling and also emma if enough of the women in aew bother him about it but she will be in taya spot soon enough aka few matches then jobbing on rampage and collision.Ziggler only one that will be pushed by khan.
Anyone can sell a snowball in hell, ppl are burning
@@johnnyboogalo4897 I see Ziggler going, everyone else either in Impact or MLW, or possibly just the Indies.
I knew Vince weazeling his way back to the company would have disastrous results.
I agree, this wreaks of Vince
Everyone is expendable, it’s a business decision which come later in your mature life you’ll have to make if you ever own a business
You boys can’t cry over something you have no control over, you just got to move on and realize it’s a part of life
I can tell a lot of these comments are from young people who haven’t experienced life and don’t know how businesses operate but watch and learn you’ll experience many failures in your life, you can’t win all the time
And how do we actually know this was a Vince thing (You boys got VDS he’s living in your head rent free) after all it could’ve been TKO who made the final decision but I get it you boys blame Vince for everything just like liberals blame Trump for their failures
This is entertaining to watch cause it just shows how many bipolar fans are extremely emotional and/or can’t move on cause this will set them back another 10 years and lots of extensive therapy
Fun times
@@maxpayne7312I mean, we know it's a business decision, just sorta a dumb decision of a business to let go of Workhorses that can consistently put out great product. If you own a business, would you rather get rid of the guy that does the job of 2-3 others, or keep the guy that's constantly messing up on the job. Also Vince is an out of touch old man, and as the head of company, you're gonna get the flack, especially after you've created a tremendous amount of Failed Decisions.
@@BLACKSTA361 soon, UFC will have to lose their talent as well because business is business.
@@BLACKSTA361exactly, people wanna blame Vince for everything without even knowing the truth.
Dolph Ziggler's going to be an absolutely fantastic addition to AEW
"Things you always love, don't always love you back"
Dolph Ziggler getting released by WWE was shocking..he was one of the most underrated wrestler and loyal talent who stayed in WWE for straight 19 years😢😢
I’m still shocked about Ziggler. He was making over 7 figures with WWE, and they could literally put him anywhere and he’d do a hell of a job. He’s such an asset in making anyone he faces look like an absolute monster. WWE really dropped the ball by letting him go, but who knows, maybe Ziggler wanted it this way. I’ll definitely miss him.
I'm so heartbroken and devastated by the fact that all of these WWE Superstars were released. Literally everyone being released on the list especially Shelton Benjamin, Top Dolla, Dolph Ziggler, Rick Boogs, Aliyah, & Elias (As well as other Superstars outside of the list like Quincy Eliott, Commander Azaeez, Mace, Mansoor, & Dana Brooke) hit me emotionally hard and I feel so sorry for them. I wish those guys the best of luck in their future careers and hope everything will be okay for them again. Thank you for the amazing years in WWE, you guys will be greatly missed in WWE and also on UUDD too.
Devastated and heart broken? Calm down, you're talking about people that are worth 6 to 7 figures. They're going to be just fine.
@@deepblue8143people actually care for their favorite wrestlers, we know what they put themselves through solely for our entertainment
6 figures can't buy life or health
Look at Eddie or Bret or Owen or Jake the snake, piper, Hogan, droz, edge, Benoit, Scott hall etc money isn't everything
Settle down and you heartbroken cause of jobbers like elliot and Maximum model dude are released??? most not even on TV past months.Getting sick of this fake outrage and how all of sudden people are these released wrestler fans biggest fans now lol
I'm so heart broken grown adults who make Thousands every appearance, and will never know who I am, are out of work. Oh how will I ever go on.
Society softer than charmin
@@johnnyboogalo4897 if you don't appreciate the sacrifice of even the most glorified of jobbers and why fans care for them then you aren't a wrestling fan and if you aren't a wrestling fan then what are you doing on a wrestling page
Dana Brooke was never used to her full potential. It's sad that WWE always put Dana on the back burner instead of giving her a chance to shine. Her and Jade Cargill could have had great potential as a feud especially as they are so similar in stature and build.
Didnt she had a match on nxt? But i think the merger caused all these cuts
@@JayThaChosenOne she had a match but again....not.used correctly since the beginning of.her wwe career
I seriously hate that Dana got cut. But for years idiots kept saying she should get released. Hopefully she comes back. She is pretty, decent in the ring and did a great job when she used to be 24/7 champion. Hopefully she’s doing alright. Screw the haters.
@@bremaster93she’s holding gold as the 24/7 champion, yeahhhh don’t see her as a big deal never did. She had no charisma.
@@RxPrince1She was such a hardworker. He's she wasn't the main event material but she should have definitely been booked better . She was doing so good in NXT and was finally given a story and she was doing the job perfectly
Shelton Benjamin, Boggs, and Dolph are a bit of a shocker.
don't want to speculate but I feel like Ali's release was just a punch in the face and a punishment. First, they don't release him when he requested it, then they start pushing him just to drop him.
Triple H was the one pushing him until Vince soiled those plans
Ya mean Elias??😂 bruh?!
Fr , he wa ssupposed to face Dominik
Boogs is my hero, he keeps me motivated in the gym. He honestly had so much potential but they never used him correctly, I hope to see him make it big elsewhere
The most painful releases were Elias, Rick boogs, Aliyah and Madcap Moss; young and full of potential.
Be blessed, brothers and sisters in spirit.
Mustafa Ali was the biggest shocker from the entire list. It'll be interesting to see what he does next. What a let down with Boogs, perhaps the injuries didn't really help.
Releasing Shelton hurt the most
That’s crazy on how they released Dolph and Shelton
Dolph was one of the reasons why I got back into wrestling
Me too.
His MIB cash in and role in stings debut were all time moments ! Why would they let him go ugh!
Damn what year was this because wrestling sucked when he was relevant
Elias was one of my favorites, i hate that they went away from him.
shelton and dolph departure really hit hard 😢
I'm hoping that most can return at some point. If Cody Rhodes was never released we'd never would have gotten the American Nightmare
He needs to go to NXT
This is actually not a bad thing for Benjamin and ziggler because they are no doubt gonna be of interest by AEW ROH or impact
I’m glad they will get to work, but this gives Ziggler a chance to hone his comedy skills for TV.
Michael cole is def happy about top dolla leaving 🤣🤣
WWE is hiring back the ultimate reckless machine like Nia Jax, but had to release two of the safest, most athletic & talented guys like Shelton Benjamin and Dolph Ziggler
let that just sink in...
She's gonna end someone's career one day.
Because she has the look, Kharma vibes.
You’re acting like you Nia wasn’t a victim of the mass releases too
Cannot believe how bad they fumbled Elias. He was pure gold and guaranteed money. Was a natural on the mic, honestly one of the best in all of WWE… and knew exactly how to control crowds. At one point he had LA Knight size popularity growing.
He really reminds me of an early to mid 90s style wrestler.
So much potential…
Yet they bring Nia Jax back.
I have zero faith in this merger now.
Elias, Rick Boogs, Top Dolla, Dolph Ziggler, Shelton Benjamin, Riddick Moss, Emma, Aliyah, Mustafa Ali... good luck to you all. The fans love ya!!
Ziggler and Benjamin should be the guys running the performance center whenever they decide to retire! this is criminally stupid to release those two, they both have a vast knowledge of the business that they could be imparting to the up and coming generation of wrestlers and talent!
What’s stupid is you not realizing it could be about more then what you see on the screen! There’s issues that a company may have with wrestlers that we know nothing about. Cm punk , Daniel Bryan and bray are all proof of that.
@@ronm3034 whats stupid is thinking you can call other people stupid for some perceived notion about something i said nothing on.
@@ryanakahuss you just said it’s criminally stupid to release those two right?
@@ronm3034 because it was! neither has any known backstage heat, both have long, storied careers, and neither have caused any serious injury to others, and both of them can actually work in the ring, and do it well. you're just trying to argue with me for no reason, "making points" just to have something to argue about. its boring, and lame, be better!
@@ryanakahuss I don’t care to argue with you lol who tf are you smh I’m just showing a perspective that some fans don’t think about! Goood point about them in performance center but wrestlers have issue we don’t know about your talent isn’t all that matters.
Dolph Ziggler is the most underrated wrestler in WWE history.
So nia Jax can stay but dolph can’t 🤦🏻
That's inevitable for what they did to dolph ziggler.
FACTS make it make SENSE.
PC WOKEness and diversity killed it
Nia? You’re gonna lash out on her?
Fire Nia Jax
So Elias is gone. Maybe now they will bring back his brother Ezekiel
In 2001, I was part of a corporate merger in which employees were told that there would be no significant changes for at least a year. Three weeks later, myself and hundreds of others were out of a job. As soon as WWE said there would be no talent releases following the completion of the merger, I knew that was bullshit. The point is, if your employer ever tells you that there will be no changes to the status quo, update your resume.
Officially one of wwe’s darkest times
But Tozawa and Omos still there over Ziggler smh
Omos is really good and Tozawa is nice enhancement talent
Don't give wwe ideas, those two might be next
are you watching the same show as everyone else???? HE IS BORING @@vans312
Omos is a 7 foot giant, he's an attraction. He's fun to watch unlike people like Dolph and Mustapha.
@@deepblue8143 fun he has 2 moves
I can't believe it....Benjamin and ziggler of all people😢damn Aaliya and elias had so much potential
I'm pretty sure people will find this opportunity to point out that WWE hires Nia Jax once again and then released several superstars.
It feels like Eva Marie return all over again, but during that time this release thing was common.
Am so devastated for Ali he wanted to go but they get him back just get released 😢😢
I'm so sad that I won't ever get to see Moss and Boogs get a push now since I loved their looks. But I'm absolutely shocked they let Shelton and Ziggler go since they've done just about everything asked and were amazing.
Why would they release Ali when he has a title match against Dom next week at No Mercy?
A feud between LA Knight and Elias, I think would've been really great, especially if for a title. Such a missed opportunity.
Now for Dolph, that was a huge shock, like they couldn't of just let the veteran go out on his own terms? Sure, he might've been more keen on pursuing a different career, but could've at least tossed him a HOF ballot or something. Dude's a multi-world title holder, and has been in the business for decades now (Spirit Squad anyone?)!
Shows nobody is safe under Vince McSatan or any corporate asshole. They should have kept Shelton Benjamin as a trainer considering the guy trained Brock Lesnar when they were younger. He could be a very good trainer. Boogz and Elias could have been a sick tag team. WWE dropped the ball
sudlt ufc have say in mette rthen own 51 will vicne own 49
@@ssjgotenks2009 ?
Mustafa Ail hurts because he never got a push with a singles title.
To which I feel he should have
True , but at the same time he himself might be a bit relieved , because he did ask for his release sometime ago but it was denied , so he might be a bit glad
It’s so heartbreaking he never won a title. He deserved at least one but Randy ruined it by injuring him
He is beyond boring and had no physical presence or character.
@@deepblue8143 plus it didn't help that he was whining on Twitter at a time so that didn't do him any favors
Dolph ziggler release is so crazy…
I can see Ziggler going off to become a full-on comedian while the other wrestlers that were released can join a different wrestling company that treat them like a holy grail to them and push them to greatness. 💯💯
Yeah that's not exactly a guarantee. There's been plenty of wrestlers who should've been used better in other companies but didn't do any better in other companies.
We are sure to see many of these folks in AEW very soon
to everyone who was released, thank you for entertaining us, your fans. We will miss you and follow you wherever you end up.
THE REAL REASON: The new owner Ari Emmanuel asked Vince McMahon and Dana white to trim the fat from their payrolls 👍. It had nothing to do with either Vince or Dana waking up and deciding to release people. It's the endeavor higher ups telling them to cut dead weight from their payrolls. Which anyone who's not being used on a daily or weekly basis would get removed. So if anything Ari Emmanuel should be in the thumbnail.
wwe stele ahs 49% onwer ship so they shoudl eb have some say over emnaual
Exactly, people shouldn't be acting like Vince decided this or Dana White when it's inevitably his turn. Everyone just wants to blame Vince on everything regardless for what the reason is.
@@ssjgotenks2009 Yeah Vince may own 49% , but the other 51% is owned by the Endeavor CEO Ari Emmanuel 👍 . It was Ari Emmanuel's decision to downsize both the WWE and UFC rosters to cut cost. Neither Vince or Dana had a choice because their under contract.
Good point people are going to instinctively blame vince forgetting he's not the head guy anymore
@@VigilanteWilliamson regardless people will continue to blame Vince no matter what involvement he may or may not have in anything.
I would have loved to see Aliah and Liv as tag team Championships one day I felt they had the same energy and style in their own ways and could have been a good team
Sad to see Elias gone. Always enjoyed him.
Same he was one of my favorites. Kinda expected it tho bc they only had him job after the Ezekiel storyline
@@arcrisz5 We will forever walk with Elias!
All of these people were never used under H but used a lot under Vince, yet everyone is blaming the latter. No one should be getting released period.
Wanted to see the gold standard Shelton gimmick return :(
I was hoping Shelton would join the new Hurt Business again. Sad he didn't have that Wrestlemania moment with the Hurt Business. Broke them up way too early!
That really sucks but I wish the best for these amazing wrestlers who have given us a lot of good memories throughout the years
Always thought that Dolph would be a main stay in the WWE. Hope whatever he does whether that be in comedy or wrestling or both that it will be successful for him. And everybody else who has been released.
Bringing back nia jax last week, then firing dolph ziggler this week is kinda crazy
all the releases were to cover nia jax's booking fee ;)
To Pay Nia Jax to wrestle and when she injured some wrestler, then pay that wrestler for health recovery.
They totally wasted Dolph Ziggler. He was one of their best, and they turned him into an afterthought.
I heard that Mustafa Ali actually requested his release last year, but was denied it. So his release now may have been a mutual agreement. Still, he definitely had talent and could have been a top star.
I do wonder what they're gonna do with Ashanti "Thee" Adonis and B-Fab now that Top Dolla is gone. Obviously, Hit Row is now dead. But will they even use Ashanti and B-Fab?
During mergers there'll always be job losses.
Anyone who hasn't been on TV in over a Year got the axe. Which sucks because Zigger & Benjamin were Underrated, & Riddick Moss looked like he was about to get a major push.
UPDATE!
The following has been released as of now:
Quincy Elliot
Bryson Montana
Dana Brooke
Mace
Mansoor
Dabba-Kato
Shanky
Yulisa León
The only people names on this list I recognize are Mansoor and Dana Brooke who are the others?
@@snakeeyes2551Shanky was with Jinder Mahal and Veer Mahaan , Mace was in the stable Retribution along with Mustafa Ali
Shelton is an all-around great talent with top-notch skills! A true legend in his own right! THIS MAN TRAINED BROCK, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! I understand their move with him, if it was age-related, but he can go better than 99.9% of the entire roster! For them to let him go vs offering him a producer role backstage is INSANE to me! DEFINITELY hate to see him go, but he would be an absolute goldmine for Tony to help AEW structure better matches vs the flip-fest over there, along with Moxley's boring bloodbath matches! Smh 😮😮😮
You know who really needs released from WWE Vince McMahon
It's not all Vince's fault, whether you wanna believe it or not. From what's been said, same things gonna happen with UFC.
Indeed Vince needs to go
Also rick books and moss were a shock. Those two as a team would have been amazing.
Holy crap theres no way Shelton Benjamin looks or acts like a 48 year old! He's always had incredible skill, and has always been a great wrestler to watch, it's so disappointing that they let him go, he is the embodiment of the word "talent" these days and I can still see him working with anyone - such a damn shame -_-
Its kind of sad that guys like dolph and shelton are getting fired. Considering ali was going to take the north american title off dom his firing shocked me. And we are not goingto talk about how nia jax returns to wwe and all these valuble stars get fired
Why is it sad there not doing much to the wwe company every one has there time and there time in up now
You mean lose to dragon Lee bc before this firing I think Dom would lose to Lee then it would be dragon Lee vs Mustafa ali. Ali and Dom are both heels so that match doesn't make sense
The problem is WWE has and could have the talent but they over see them, throw them out, or don't push them. Then are only so many times you can bring back Taker, Rock, and Brock to boost ratings
Damn! So bummed about them all, but especially Boogz!!!
I hope that Benjamin and Ziggler will land a contract at AEW at soon as possible. Perhaps create a stable with Chris Jericho or something like that.
Ziggler is one of the best under used wrestlers in WWE. The man can do it. just give him the right angle, the right adversaries, and he can be among the top. I think it's good he was let go, he might grow a bit now and return better than ever.
Aew can take him
Damn 2 superstars almost made 20 yrs but sadly things must come to a end
Simple answer: They had to pay the rock and cena for their appearances hence why for the firings
So, there have been more releases now. Dana Brooke, Mansoor and Mace, Shanky, Dabba Kato/Commander Azeez, Quincy Elliot, Bryson Montana, Yulisa Leon, and Daniel McArthur. That’s just as of right now
I thought Mace and T-Bar were badass. New Brothers of Destruction! I would have loved to see them get a big push. 🙁
I think Shelton makes the HoF but does Dolf
You're analysis was spot on. One thing, WWE=No loyalty guarantee
Elias & Boogs teaming up would have been a good storyline.
I seriously wanna know why Karrion Kross is still in WWE and Not Dolph Ziggler and Mustafa Ali?!
More releases are coming.
And JD Mcdouchebag and Gayson Waller and several others. They keep Dumb Dumb around because of his HOFFER daddy.
I wanna know what they plan to do with all these releases. I hope they don’t bring in someone we don’t wanna see or something
@@oofmaster1003 you mean like Nia Jax? If it weren't for family connection she would still be unemployed
Same
Plenty expected. None were utilized and the way Riddick Moss is taking the news, all these releases are for the better of each individual. Sucks about Tenille Dashwood having her dreams dashed for competing in her home country, just to be released less then a half hr later 😑
Shelton Benjamin is underrated legend
Eric Young saw the writing on the wall early on and requested his release.
All the wrestlers who were release today will find work elsewhere.
That or find other careers
Very sad to see, but what the hell is Ashante Adonis and B Fab gonna do without Swerve and Dolla.
I think they will release soon. Hit row was faliure faction
I think Dolph is gonna get brought back same with Ali but maybe Ali won’t come back but let’s hope these people don’t fail in the future
John Cena is the reason....wwe had to pay Cena a large amounts of money to show up every week for this reason they had to cut superstars
And here I was thinking now that Vince doesn’t have all the power things might get better…
The one that was a shame was mustafa ali. He was awesome!
Wishing all the best to those who got released.
Put my boi Shelton in the HoF
I was hoping for an Emma comeback to NXT and Aliyah returning overall
Boggs and Moss are gone but Ridge "Crippler" Holland is still signed... 🙄
Yet he never crippled anyone. Mistakes happen in the ring, even guys like AJ Styles have been partially responsible for wrestlers injuries. It's not like he intended for anything to happen.
I am happy to hear that these wrestlers were released as they were chocked out of frustration. Hope they better career somewhere else.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
CONGRATS ON 2 MIL SUBS.....
I agree with WWE for releasing these wrestlers. Very accurate. I've been saying it for a long time about all of them except Shelton Benjamin, Ziggler, Elias and Emma that they needed to be released. Good job WWE.
It's a shame for WWE to release these guys but that could give them better opportunities elsewhere. There could be a positive out of this.
Triple H's creative decisions have had a negative impact on several careers, including those of Dolph Ziggler,Madcap Moss, Baron Corbin, Boogs, Street Profits (although they have recently returned to TV), and more. It's also worth noting the frustration caused by his rehiring of superstars, only to neglect their booking entirely.
He is worse than vince
Congrats on 2m subs
this is why we need more competition
It's A Shock To See Great Talents Released , What Shocked Me The Most Is Dolph Ziggler Back In 2013/2014 He Was A Successful Heel And A Successful Baby Face I Mean It's Really Sad , We Also Have Shelty , He's Been Working With The WWE Since 2002 Which Should Make Him Now A Hall Of Famer , He Did Amazing Things During His Career And He'll Be Very Missed , I Love WWE But The Only Thing That Sucks Is The Bad Booking Of The Talents , And This Is The Exact Same Thing That Happened With Naomi And Sasha , But Especially Naomi Her Bad Booking Led Her To Leave WWE , I Now Understand Why The Other Superstars Leave WWE For Other Deals Such As Impact And AEW, And On The Behalf Of All Fans I Wish For Them To Find More Success In Other Industries , They'll Always Be In Our Hear , Just Like We Say In French 🥖 " Bonne Continuation" You Were Amazing You'll Never Be Forgotten 🙏🏻❤️
I know. WWE seems to enjoy releasing the wrong people
