WWE employee announces his departure after 25+ years with the company
Gavin O’Shea, a longtime WWE employee who has been working as Director of TV Production since 2020, announced his departure from the company in a post via LinkedIn. Here is what O’Shea wrote…
“After 25 years, losing my job wasn’t part of the plan. For those memorable 25 years at WWE, I’ve seen, heard and experienced it all. After all, I grew up there, made friends and learned by doing.
Like many people, I tied a piece of my identity to what I do every day. So when that suddenly changed, it felt unsettling, humbling… and honestly, a little scary.
But here’s what I’m learning in real time:
• Your job is something you do — not who you are • Setbacks can create space for better opportunities • Resilience isn’t a buzzword — it’s a skill you build through moments like this.
I’m taking this time to reflect, reset, and refocus on what I truly want in my next chapter. I’m incredibly grateful for the people I’ve worked with, the lessons I’ve learned, and the support I’ve already received.
If you know of opportunities or just want to connect, I’d love to hear from you.
Onward.
Gavin.”
