1) Big Backstage WWE Departure Not Happening
Over the past day or so, there was a rumor that Canyon Ceman may have been let go from WWE. Canyon is a big name behind-the-scenes, serving as the Senior Director of Talent Development for WWE.
Sean Ross Sapp on Twitter was able to clear things up and noted that Canyon has not been let go by the company. Here is what Sapp Tweeted:
WWE reached out and they stated that Canyon Ceman has NOT been let go by WWE. There have been rumors circulating within WWE and the wrestling world over the last two days.
We reached out to Canyon last night, as well as two WWE sources, and did not get a response until just now
We’re told Ceman even asked WWE how to go about handling the inquiries of his status with WWE, but we didn’t get a specific response from him. Our requests to WWE didn’t get a response until word made it’s way out, as they don’t typically comment on personnel matters
We’ve been contacted by at least two dozen people in the industry speculating about Canyon Ceman in the last 24 hours, across all major companies. Ceman still scouts for WWE and is in charge of handling a lot of contract negotiations as well.
My Take:
- This was definitely a random rumor that was making the rounds. Glad that it was cleared up.
