Tyler Reks Granted Release

[Jeremy]

They seemingly changed Hawkins profile to say he is going at it alone now.

I definitely went on Reks' Universe page on Facebook a few days ago, where he had about 20,000 fans. It's vanished.

Is this a thread for other goofs as well? Because if so, I put forward Big deal, fairly quickly.

That's nothing compared to spoiling the 7th man in Team WWE vs The Nexus.

I find it hilarious they move superstars to Alumni before officially making an announcement

I don't think they make those announcements anymore.

[Legion]

If he quit, I guess maybe they dont have to?

But they at least post an article.

Maybe his contract was up?

Tyler Reks' WWE career:

- Debuts on ECW as surfer
- Loses a lot
- ECW disappears, as does Reks
- Comes back on Smackdown as monster heel, appears on a couple of PPVs
- Doesn't last long, appears on Superstars a lot
- Disappears again
- Comes back in a team with Curt Hawkins
- Loses a lot, even on NXT
- After months of doing not much, both men get a Chippendale gimmick and win a match
- Reks leaves

Hall Of Fame, y'all.

Don't forget those Midcard Mafia cartoons.

Did they post articles for Goldust, Maxine, and Kharma?

[CATCH_US IS the Conversation]

I hope they didn't release Reks. The only consolation I'd have from this is if it leads to Hawkins & Ryder getting back together.

You forgot to mention getting kicked off a plane when he freaked out after seeing the pilot check the flaps.

This sucks if Reks is truly gone.

They did for AW

He's just linked to his own Facebook page, with no information on it. Should I add him? www.facebook.com/tylerreks?sk=wall

Also, his Twitter handle is now @gabetuft. Not looking good.

[Ryanar]

As it was stated earlier here is the part where they write him off TV.

Teaming briefly again with Ryder and joining forces with Tyler Reks on WWE NXT, Hawkins gained more tag team experience before deciding to go solo.

After an alliance with the imposing Tyler Reks, Hawkins has made the move to the Raw roster where he’s gunning to make more than just an impact — he’s out to make a legacy.

For those that don't have a FaceBook page:

I just want to say thank you to WWE, Inc. for allowing me to be part of an incredible entertainment experience. On Monday, I asked for my release and the company was gracious enough to grant my request.

I realized recently that being a Superstar means sacrificing certain things, including time with my family. As a new father, my heart broke every time I had to leave to go on the road. I didn't ever want to miss another moment with my daughter, so I made the decision to be a full time dad and hang up my boots.

I will miss everyone in the locker room tremendously as they have all become a second family to me. I want to thank my coaches and teachers that really helped me along the way: Fit Finlay, Arn Anderson, Edge, Christian, Kane, Jericho, Dr. Tom, Norman Smiley, and Billy Kidman.

I also want to thank my boys. You know who you are. Especially though, a huge thank you to Hawkins. You were like a brother to me the last year and I'll miss you and will always love you bro. I wish you the best and thanks for understanding that I had to go be a dad. When she's older, and able to realize what happened, I know Mia will thank you as well.

Thanks to all the dedicated fans of #ReksAndHawkins and to The #RekkingCrew. I would never have survived without you.

Shame, seems like a great guy. Best of luck to him.
