"On International Women's Day, Disgusting Misogynist Vince McMahon goes on a Female Firing Spree" The headline writes itself. Not really. The 2 most important words in HR are "legally defensible". If WWE has done their due diligence and can justify the releases it really doesn't matter if more women than men get fired. Never said anything about lawsuits. Just horrible optics/PR.

Never said anything about lawsuits. Just horrible optics/PR. Ok that maybe but it still sounds like a real stretch, especially if WWE can justify it. It's like when Alberto decked that Twitter guy. Yeah the guy was being racist but it was really easy for WWE to justify.

Also unless they're gonna make NXT a 2 hour show and add more TV there are just to many damn people. NXT has like 50 people that have never appeared on TV, that's insane.

Looking like Demetrius Bronson is one of the other releases, he's one of the former NFL players.

God, that sucks. I was super rooting for her, and thought her and Ruby could have had some great matches, since they've worked together before.
This blows.

I don't think so, that I believe is Brennan Williams that guy that worked with Booker T, all I know about this dude is he played RB for the Seahawks for a few minutes.

Either the WWE really really likes Nixon Newell or Abby Laith is an asshole..if you believe Casey's story.

I really doubt the timing is anything but coincidence. Developmental needs some fat trimmed every once in awhile and it sounds like Laith gave them plenty of reason to cut her.

Yeah, there's cuts all the time and often we don't even really hear about them, because it's people who never even made it onto TV or even the Florida loop. There's dozens of unknowns down there and people who are long-term projects. Some get batch culled, some just get cut at the end of their contract if they aren't making progress, it happens. We only hear about it when it's someone vaguely notable.

Making room for ADR on the payroll, I guess.......... ![O_o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/browraise.png) "On International Women's Day, Disgusting Misogynist Vince McMahon goes on a Female Firing Spree" The headline writes itself. Not really. The 2 most important words in HR are "legally defensible". If WWE has done their due diligence and can justify the releases it really doesn't matter if more women than men get fired. Social media - which is currently smashing Jon Favreau for being named the writer of the new Star Wars TV series b/c it was announced on Intl Womens day - doesn't care about HR or legally defensible or any logical things. The headlines will definitely write themselves and 90% of everyone will just stop there, ignore the articles and just start yelling until something offends them tomorrow.

So he has sources somewhere in the company, safe to say someone has told him unflattering things about Laith.

I don't know how I'll live without Ming.
I mean, I don't know how I lived with him, but I'm not sure how to live without him either.
