WWE talent who were rehired by Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque following his takeover of creative last year are reportedly experiencing a sense of paranoia amid concerns over future roster cuts.
Many former WWE stars returned to the company under Levesque’s leadership, but some have yet to find their footing on the main roster. With Vince McMahon’s recent return to power and the sale to Endeavor, many believe that cuts may be on the horizon.
Although WWE CEO Nick Khan previously indicated that cost-cutting measures would primarily target office staff, there have been rumors of potential talent cuts, causing concern among those who returned under Triple H’s tenure.
According to a report by PWInsider Elite, WWE creative have stated that there have been no official edicts about roster cuts, but this has not alleviated talent concerns.
The return of the old feeling of “walking on eggshells” has slowly picked back up since McMahon’s return to power.
While there has been no official confirmation of future cuts, many in the industry are preparing for the worst as they await further updates on WWE’s plans for the future.
How do you think the recent changes in WWE leadership and the rumored possibility of future roster cuts will affect the morale of WWE talent who returned to the company under Triple H’s leadership? Leave a comment.
