WWE’s budget cuts strike again! One of the WWE’s best commentators Josh Mathews’ run with the company is at an end thanks in most part to the failure of the WWE Network. Matthews competed on another program that eventually tanked, WWE’s Tough Enough. After 12 years of announcing, interviewing and hosting panels for the WWE he is gone.
Check out this clip of him and my future wife A.J. Lee.
According to the mega popular PWInsider:
“Josh Mathews has been released from WWE within the past 24 hours.”
The WWE hasn’t made an official statement, but Matthews’ profile is now listed under the “WWE alumni” section of its website along with all of the other “future endeavored” staff.
It’s going to keep happening. More and more people cut because creative for the WWE is awful right now therefore talent is misused or not used at all. With no value the superstars are easy to cut loose. Until the WWE Network gets more subscribers to make up for the expensive move from the pay-per-view to the streaming events they are going to keep firing people like cannonballs from a slowly sinking ship.
You can chalk this up to bad business decisions, poor booking of talent, and an atrocious product that focuses on Fandango dancing rather than actual Wrestling which is why people watch. Thanks Total Divas…
In the weeks to come expect to see Tyson Kidd and guys like Zack ryder let go. Scratch Tyson Kidd from that list because he is dating Natalya who is a cast member of the God awful Total Divas show on E! He might stick around unless they fire Natalya, too. Why keep wrestlers when you can have no talent bimbos botching every move in the ring for the two minutes they are allotted. How’s anyone supposed to make it to the bathroom in just two minutes WWE? That’s what those garbage matches are good for.
Who do you think is next to be fired?
