Great news, more new toys for Tony! I wonder who the next "Gamechanger" for AEW will be?

I can see Tony taking Eddy Thorpe/Karl Fredericks if NJPW won't take him back after how he left just because he's a Dojo boy. Maybe Baszler and Kai if TNA don't take them.

Out of everyone who survived I'm shocked Mia Yim is still there. I really don't see Keith Lee making it back to in-ring shape.

Even if people don't like Joshi i'd advise them to watch Saya's entrance. Legit one of the best bits of presentation i've ever seen in pro-wrestling.

You don't even need to know a thing about who she is to feel like she is a fucking badass after seeing it.

Dakota Kai: Probably cooked, her injury-risks are really bad and she can't get over on the mic. TNA, Stardom or Retirement.
Shayna: Really liked her style, feels like it could have gone a bit further. Could also mean she's done, she's like 40 now.

Braun: I don't get this one at all tbh. Great talent, has the size to get over, can wrestle decently at his size. TNA for sure, but I can see a GCW run.
Katana/Kayden: 6 years on WWE TV and they haven't done shit besides 1 tag team reign? I don't even think TNA wants them. I thought Kayden would be safe cause she's Fuckin Priest but I guess not. GCW or retirement.

Cora: Injuries, mostly. She and Gigi are really young though, so I see her doing the indie circuit before coming back.
Gigi: Most likely going to AEW. fits her gimmick well, she had a Rated R gimmick before going to WWE.
Jakarta: TNA?
Eddy: no fuckin clue, don't like the guy
Gallus: UK scene for sure. that or their becoming trainers soon.
Oro: UK scene
Riley: Honestly? DPW. not that great.

Most likely to come back? Braun, Cora, Gigi
Least likely? Katana/Kayden, UK scene, Eddy

I think these two were backstage issues.
Shayna apparently had beef with Jade at some point, allegedly going as far as shoot choking her during a match and being passive aggressive on twitter.
Braun went on the Roast of Wrestlemania to more or less a drunken rant as to why he wasn't on the card and I think Heyman went "you weren't on the card because you're shit" or something along those lines. I don't know the exact timestamp of it.
 
I'm surprised Eddy and Gigi got cut, and until Noam Dar had to leave on injury, Oro and Jakara were part of Meta Four and they were over.

Everyone else were kind of expected.
 
I read that Braun has some major knee issues which is why he was released, but who knows. I was never a big fan of him. Always seemed to be just a generic big guy to me. Still surprising though.

Dakota and Shayna surprised me too, although I guess Dakota's injuries are pretty bad and Shayna has never really been super over and is 45, but at the same time she's a decent talent and has the legitimate background.

The story here is apparently Jade performed really poorly in a match against Shayna and nearly injured her and Shayna starting talking shit openly backstage about untrained shitters being pushed beyond their ability so Jade tried stiffing here in their next match and it was a bad idea.

The locker room had Shaynas back because Jade came in humble but got really cocky after having a rocket strapped to her.

She may go to TNA since her current boyfriend is there plus her recent exposure thanks to the crossover makes her recognizable to the audience.

I can see it, but does she go back to her OG name or her WWE name there? considering she was JUST on there

wasn't there a rumor going around for a while that Dakota and Shayna were dating or some shit?

Any time a guy gets a rocket strapped to him like Braun, then gets injured like Braun, takes time off like Braun, comes back and does comedy shit like Braun, never gets back to the main event like Braun, fades completely like Braun, gets fired and comes back but is rarely seen and ends up getting released again like Braun, it's almost always because he never fully recovered from the injury and never will
 
Braun was released probably because his knees are fucked. He looks in pain every time he's running around. I think he also has concussion issues. I did like Braun's last couple of notable feuds with Bronson Reed and Jacob Fatu, he bumped his ass off and helped get those guys over as monsters.
The only main roster cut I was surprised by was Dakota. She's a solid midcarder to have around.
As for NXT, I was surprised by some of the women released. Cora because she's a notable name even if she hadn't improved for a while now. Gigi just had a women's tag team title match and her team with Tatum was fun. Wasn't surprised by anything else.

They were dating for a few years and living together. I can't remember when exactly they broke up, but I believe it was some time last year then Dakota started dating her current boyfriend beard Eddy Thorpe.

That was the rumor. They lived together, but I don't think it was ever confirmed they were together. I mean it's pretty likely they were but you never know.

I am pretty sure that Shayna is a lesbian though. Gives off that vibe
 
AJ's twitter got hacked lmao. Unfortunately most of the tweets got deleted just after I noticed and didn't get time to archive them. From what I saw the hacker tried promoting some memecoin which failled, talked about jews and niggers, and called out Vince's abuse.
