I see their weird, Orwellian use of language remained even in Vince’s absence.

“Departing.” What a shitty, cowardly way to say you’re sacking them off.

Indi Hartwell was mostly forgettable in the ring, but she was a great character worker. Her wedding with Dexter Loomis was one of the best wrestling weddings of all time.

It’s sad to say, but I couldn’t tell you a single thing Tegan Knox ever did beyond get injured.

Baron Corbin was good for about six weeks, when he became Bum Ass Corbin. Wild that they didn’t even realise what they had and switched him back so quickly.

It’s always sad to hear of people losing their jobs but Corbin, at his best, was a poor version of Authority Kane, who was the worst incarnation of his character “arc”. So hopefully he’s successful in whatever he does next, but hopefully isn’t anywhere wrestling related.

I’d be absolutely stunned if he doesn’t turn up in TNA. And hey, who’d have been crying out for Big Cass to go there before he did? I’m going to say something that might haunt me in the future: if Corbin goes to TNA, I reckon he’ll surprise a few people and do quite well.

Baron Corbin was one of those bizarre types who when you pushed him was mostly utter dogshit, but put him a low card angle like when he lost all his money or the Happy Corbin thing and he'd be quite fun and likeable that he made them actually work and appreciate having at least something going on. Terrible as that Vince proxy on Raw with a stupid nickname. Brilliant telling that doctor who said CTE wasn't a massive issue that he was full of cobblers. He really did need that haircut.

He's one of the consistently most boring and rubbish wrestlers I've ever seen in my entire life and I'm glad I don't have to watch the useless git anymore.

I'm sorry he's lost his job though!

I remember seeing Corbin on that Breaking Ground documentary and thinking he didn't give a fuck about wrestling even back then so I'm glad hes gone as he was absolute horse shit in the ring and never had a single good match.

To be fair that was Sapp’s choice of wording, WWE haven’t announced any of the departures.

He had that one Chairs match with Kalisto which was an unexpected banger. But apart from that no. Tragic that he was Kurt's retirement match and how little it meant

It’s been mentioned a few times now and it’s wild that we’re in 2024 and CARING ABOUT THE BUSINESS matters to people.

If Baron Corbin was great, it wouldn’t make the slightest difference to me whether he had Super J Cup ‘94 on VHS or not.

I couldn’t give a shit if wrestlers like wrestling or not. Goldberg wasn’t a fan and was only in it for the money. Still ruled. Seth Rollins has so obviously subscribed to Newsletters and tape traded since he started getting pocket money. Still shit.
