It's bizarre the way they have signed some of these guys so recently. If Cagematch is accurate, Alex Zayne only wrestled 10 matches for WWE. Anthony Henry only wrestled 11 matches. That's a pretty quick turnaround from "we see something in you" to "we're done with you."
I don't feel bad for anyone though. I mean, it always sucks to get fired but these guys & gals got paid for their time. Their careers likely weren't negatively affected in any way. Once their non-competes are up, they'll get right back out there.

Like I know from following brandi Lauren on twitch, she had just got a new place the week before and was saying she wasn't sure about getting it and they told her oh no go get it your fine your safe don't be worrying, then literally 1 week later "best of luck to ya"

Sometimes wrestlers ask for their release (Punk, Ryback, Andrade, FTR etc etc) and sometimes they just get get released. Nature of the beast.

You have to think at some point nxt UK is getting hit. We've had raw and smackdown, last week was nxt. Makes sense for UK to be next.
They did say more releases are coming

WWE has released SmackDown ring announcer Greg Hamilton Hamilton removed WWE from his Twitter bio earlier this week, and made the account private. PWInsider reports that they checked into his status due to the change, and learned that he has been released. There’s no word yet on why Hamilton was released, but it’s interesting that his departure comes after a recent social media issue he had with rapper and known pro wrestling fan Westside Gunn of Griselda Records. Hamilton recently took issue with Gunn using a sample of his voice on a song, and stated on Instagram that WWE’s lawyers would sue Gunn on his behalf. Gunn’s next project, Fourth Rope, has been described as practically an homage to wrestling fans.

A lot of people got released today including Karrion Kross. Proof the Jeff Hardy loss was just to bury the guy.
