The coronavirus pandemic has had a big impact on the professional wrestling industry, and yesterday WWE announced budget cuts.
Shortly after release announcements were made, and quite a few names were cut from the roster.
PWInsider reports that the WWE talents who were released yesterday have 90 day non-compete clauses, so they won’t be free to wrestle again until July 15.
