As previously noted, WWE released 18 wrestlers from the main roster and NXT on November 4th 2021.

Several wrestlers commented on the matter. AEW World Champion Kenny Omega wrote the following…

“Old rivals, old friends, some I’ve never encountered… I don’t mind padding my record if they don’t mind being a statistic. See if I care.”

Bronson Reed, who was released earlier this year, said the following…

“My brother’s and sisters … that PLACE is not the be all and end all. You will thrive and prosper because in the end PRO WRESTLING always wins.”

WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley commented on Karrion Kross and Scarlett being released…

“So Karrion Kross & Scarlett get to be a duo again – and whoever picks them up has one of the hottest acts in the biz. Unfortunately, it seems WWE is sometimes intent on trying to reinvent the wheel.”

Dax Harwood of FTR had a simple message – “I wish WCW would’ve won.”

Former WWE star Bray Wyatt sent out a cryptic message shortly after the news broke of the releases…

“What do we do now?

We wait for the right place.

We wait for the right time.

Then we turn Rome to Ashes.
