Then explain why Micheal Hutter became Ethan Carter the Third, Phil Shatter became Gunner, Austin Starr, Rhaka Khan, Alissa Flash, Robbie E, Roxxi, Madison Rayne, Jade, Jethro Holiday, etc. TNA liked to own names of wrestlers they branded just like WWE. Only folks who escaped it were indy and international standouts who got regular gigs outside of TNA. This is true. That's why Delirious didn't work out in TNA many years ago. They wanted the rights to his name and his character. They were really interested in him but there was no way he was giving that up and I don't blame him at all. They wanted Low Ki's name at one time and that's why he became Senshi for a while. Jigsaw became Rubix for the brief period of time he was there.

Wait Team Treeemendous now as well possibly? Why? They have just got to PWG damn it And I won't believe Chuck is retiring until it actually happens/aftermath (his final match). I refuse to believe he is retiring, especially as it is so close after he went to a tryout with 'e. He must be signed. Surely! (denial) Please!

Pretty sure Sexy Chucky T has a college degree (not sure in what) from Murray State, so it's possible he's moving on to the real world while he's still young enough to find a more stable job and life.
I also think he'd make a great road agent or trainer. Didn't he have a hand in training Ricochet?

Just like TNA would get pissed if WWE signed Gunner and called him Gunner Murphy. Brought to you by the people who gave us "Kelly Kelly". And if this is true this really sucks as a fan. Chucky T was one of the first guys to stand out as I got into indy wrestling, one of the few people who can blend comedy with serious wrestling and make it entertaining.

And the reason he got bookings at first is because everyone wanted Ricochet, and Taylor just was kind of part of the package.

Wikipedia isn't exactly the best possible source, but it lists Chucky and Brandon Walker as Ricochet's trainers ... and Walker as Chuck's trainer. Chuck apparently debuted a couple of years before Ricochet. But I believe they do travel together often, regardless of the trainer situation they would obviously end up on a lot of the same shows because they can split expenses which is good for them and they can offer a better deal to the promoter.

It could be a Jimmy Jacobs situation where he got a WWE job doing video editing.

I love the guy and wish him the best If he goes up north, I hope he gets a good new name, Joey Styles has an awesome name generator, he helped Evan Bourne get his.
Kinda off topic but I hate when he uses the Dustin name on his twitter. I know it's his real name, but in my opinion it doesn't fit him.

Yeah, I think I'm going to go with this being a joke or him legit calling it quits. If people are on their way to WWE they have to remain super quiet about it. They can't even give the slightest hint about going there.

Yesterday, he put this shirt up on his ProWrestlingTees store and deleted everything on his Twitter except for a tweet advertising this.

He may have gotten the gig in WWE and may be pulling a Sami/Generico.
And before you all say it'd be absurd to think that Dustin would refuse that he were Chuck Taylor, remember that Chuck Taylor is amazing and it's something he'd do.

deleting stuff off of Twitter before something from the past could get dug up and used against him perhaps?

I'm hoping the only reason he deleted his tweets was because he didn't want WWE to find anything that could jeopardise his position, and not because he's depressed that they turned him down.

PleasePleasePleasePleasePlease be that he is signed for Big Mac and not retiring
