Wyatt’s last WWE match was at Wrestlemania 37. For months, the belief was that Wyatt had not been cleared to wrestle. According to Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com, Wyatt was told by John Laurinaitis that his release was due to budget cuts. Wyatt had reportedly been planning to return to television in August.
Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com noted the following regarding Wyatt…
“PWInsider.com is told Wyatt had disappeared from the company’s internal roster weeks ago but there had been no official stance on his status with the company.”
Wyatt tweeted on July 15th about how he missed the fans…
I miss you guys too. Believe me
