WWE recently cut a number of talents including former NXT North American Champion Cameron Grimes. Last year Cameron Grimes was officially called up to SmackDown during the WWE Draft, but the company hadn’t been using him in recent months.
During an appearance on Busted Open Radio, Cameron Grimes talked about his WWE released and claimed that last week a “high executive” told him he would always have a job with the company.
“Literally the last time I was at TV, I had a pretty high executive tell me — because, you know, I was worried. Starting this stock market gimmick, it made me see businesses in a different light, you know what I mean? Following these companies and playing with stocks, I would see things in a different light. So I knew that I haven’t worked in over a year and I’m making a decent salary. So I knew that if someone was to look at the books, I’m going to be the first person that’s going to be cut. If you’re looking at it strictly as money-wise. But if you’re looking at it as like, ‘Ok, well if this is a talent that can do something for us.’ You know what I mean, they’re going to keep me.
So I was told by a high executive last week on Friday that I would always have a job here. I would never have to worry about losing my job here, after expressing my concerns like that to him. And then five days later, they called me and told that I do lose the job. So I don’t know.”
