Since joining the WWE in 2016, Gran Metalik has not been able to achieve any success in
terms of championship titles. The only success he’s really been able to achieve in the
WWE is keeping his full name and as we know, that’s a very hard thing to do nowadays!
After a recent deleted tweet from Kalisto which pretty much confirmed he will be leaving
the WWE, it seems Gran Metalik will be joining him as he replied to Kalisto’s tweet with
the message: “Me too carnal.” A couple of days before Kalisto’s deleted tweet,
you could sort of sense the Lucha House Party’s dissatisfaction as they were not even featured
on the cover for WWE Live Mexico which as proud Lucha Libre wrestlers must have been
a low blow to them for sure!
Earlier this year, The Revival requested their WWE release as they were unhappy with how
little time and respect the tag team division had been given. The Top Guys have been very
vocal about their thoughts on the current WWE tag team division and have expressed their
vision to make tag team wrestling great again. You can just tell they have so much passion
for tag team wrestling… Although Dash and Dawson were offered new 5-year WWE contracts
worth $550,000 each year, they still rejected them which could be a sign of the two leaving
the WWE for good as their current contracts expire in April 2020. It is also worth noting
that Dash Wilder filed a trademark for #FTR for when they go to the indies.
The last couple of weeks have not been so good for Dolph Ziggler… Ziggler has seen
more spears in the last couple of weeks than Michael Cole has screamed: “Here comes The
Big Dog!” According to a report on Bodyslam.net, Vince McMahon had a “handshake deal” with
Dolph Ziggler to allow Ziggler to leave the WWE after his match with Goldberg at SummerSlam
but what Dolph failed to realise is that you should never trust a McMahon especially Vince
McMahon! Instead, Vince McMahon has told Dolph that he cannot let him out of his deal and
would rather just pay him to stay at home.
Harper has been left in a rather unfortunate situation. If you remember back in April 2019,
Harper posted a rather lengthy tweet which outlined his request to leave the WWE after
spending 6 years working for the company. However, his request was refused by WWE officials.
According to Dave Meltzer, Harper hasn’t been scheduled for any future bookings so
it looks like he will just have to sit out the rest of his contract. It’s a shame to
see such a talented performer being treated like this but on the other hand, it could
be a blessing in disguise. We know Harper has a strange and intimidating presence so
it will be interesting to see whether or not he brings this to the indie scene. Just the
sight of Harper is enough to make grown men literally scream for lives…
As mentioned earlier, Kalisto recently posted a tweet which he later deleted which read:
“10 months… #freeagent”. To which Braun Strowman replied with: “#Adios.” Throughout
his 6-year tenure in the WWE, Kalisto has managed to win the United States championship
twice, the NXT tag team championship and the Cruiserweight championship but now it seems
Kalisto cannot wait to get out of his WWE contract. Over the years, Kalisto has brought
us many OMG moments such as his Salida del Sol from the top of a ladder… and some not
so good moments like this… Well, we know one person who’s not going to miss Kalisto
and that’s Braun Strowman…
