I SAID WE'RE NOT GONNA BE FUCKING SUCK THIS YEAR!!!

So they literally threw Billie into an impromptu tag team to get a spot at WrestleMania (where despite eating the pin they got an elimination) gets cut before she can show back up on Smackdown with Carmella. That is some galaxy brain booking that makes no loving sense. If you're gonna cut her why would you give her that spot at all?

I gotta guess that Joe felt like he was ready to work again and all they had for him was commentary/wouldn't clear him and he wanted out cause otherwise again what a dumb loving decision.

I wonder if the Samoa Joe release is due to them not wanting to clear him for the ring due to whatever his injury is.

This has to be hard on him because its transparently untrue that they need to cut budget after one of their highest grossing years. I guess it also showed you can be massively profitable riding the same 10 stars in the same 5 matches forever I guess tho.

Does anyone know about their visa status? It’s so much worse to gently caress with someone’s entire livelihood like that when they’ve sacrificed and probably haven’t been home the entire pandemic
