3) NXT Releases To Happen More Frequently?
Dave Meltzer was recently on the Sunday Night’s Main Event podcast. During this, he spoke about the recent NXT releases that happened. During this, he was asked if he thinks more NXT releases are coming.
Here is what Meltzer said:
“Yea, I think so. I’ve had people say that but no one really knows other than Vince and everything. You kind of hear rumblings the day before that this is gonna be the bad day, which actually I had heard on April 13th and 14th that the 15th is gonna be the bad day. Then it came and went and then it happened two weeks later and I would think that would be it for NXT but there were no main roster [releases].”
“I think we are going to be seeing more and more of this when it comes to NXT is people they are just gonna make decisions that they are bringing a lot of new people in. If you don’t make progress there, they are gonna get rid of you, in most cases. There were a few cases where that wasn’t the case. That’s what it was and even talking to people who were down there and were around there were kind of like ‘ well, they weren’t making the progress [that was] hoped for’ and they have all these tryouts and they bring in a whole new group of people and there’s gonna be 90-day cycles where they bring in new people and other people are gone.”
My Take:
- I always hate seeing people lose their jobs. I also can’t imagine the pressure there would be to perform in a few months or your cut.
