WWE Plans To Use Released Superstars On Television

WWE axed a number of Superstars from their payroll last week, but they might not be totally gone yet.

Each main roster Superstar who was released was given a 90-day non-compete clause. This means that they will be paid for the next three months.

Since those released Superstars are being paid, Dave Meltzer noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that WWE will book some of them during this time.

“So, the deal is some of this talent and Drake Maverick is another one. Since they’re being paid for 90 days some of them will continue to be booked.
