On the latest edition of the Cheap Heat podcast, Peter Rosenberg explained why he no longer appears on WWE television.
Rosenberg had worked on kickoff show panels before PPV events and made various other WWE Network appearances since 2016. Over the past few months, he hasn’t been appearing on anything for WWE.
After taking time away from WWE due to some personal issues, Rosenberg says that he was told that they didn’t need him anymore. Here is what he said:
“When I came back to WWE and I was ready to work WrestleMania, those who make the decisions on those things – Michael Cole – were no longer interested in using me for that. So WrestleMania came to New York City where I’ve been promoting it for four-five months prior, even when I was no longer traveling. And they said, ‘We don’t have a place for you on WrestleMania.’ They couldn’t even squeeze me on that fakakta Watch Along show with eighty people talking at the same time. Still didn’t have room for me there. Couldn’t put me anywhere. Ok.”
Rosenberg also said that he isn’t a fan of the ‘WWE Watch Along’ show that takes place during PPV events:
“As much as it sounds like I’m even mad at Cole – not even mad at Cole. Cole and I were never super tight. He’s got the way he sees things. If I don’t fit into that, I don’t care. There’s a lot of things that I don’t – as you can hear, I think the Watch Along show is literally the worst – an embarrassment to the Network.” That’s not a veiled shot at Pat McAfee. I don’t think anyone can do that show and make it good. You can’t have ten people talking at the same time. It’s not good.”
