With the cease in operations on Superstars, there have been many changes to the WWE rosters.
First of all, the following Superstars wrestlers have been released from their contracts, and we wish them the very best in the future:
Johnny Curtis
Camacho
Curt Hawkins
Trent Baretta
(Out these 4 the most surprising name to see let go as Baretta, so much potential....)
The following Superstars wrestlers have been sent to Florida Championship Wrestling for repackaging:
Skip Sheffield
Richie Steamboat
Titus O'Neil
Bo Rotundo
(A lot these might get the WWE turnaround that is in effect these days where Sheffield could become Ryback (please if you do this, no marching in the ring and over squashing), O'Neill could find himself with Darren Young (who to my memory has not been released in this saga) to form The Prime Time Players and Rotundo could convert to Bo Dallas and have a great career along with Steamboat in FCW)
The following Superstars wrestlers will join the Raw roster:
Damien Sandow
Jay Lethal
Xavier Woods
(Very interesting signings for sure, cant wait to see how they debut on Raw soon)
The following Superstars wrestlers will join the Smackdown roster:
Tyson Kidd
Joe Hennig
Jon Moxley
(Great, great talent heading over to Smackdown. This ought to be a great turn around for them now that they are in the main roster)
William Regal has a concussion after the events of the final Superstars, and therefore has been unable to have a meeting with the board to discuss his future. Therefore, an announcement about his future will be made in due time.
(I can only imagine if he returns he'll want to target Sandow for sure)
The WWE TV Championship will be able to be defended on both Raw and Smackdown for the time being.
(Making it the 3rd Dual Branded Championship in the WWE, I like it. With the WWE and World Heavyweight Championships as well as the WWE United States and intercontinental Championships being brand exclusive, it's great that another singles championships is added to the mix which anyone can challenge from any brand.)
Of course, with the added weight, the Raw and Smackdown rosters have had it's expected cuts.
On Raw, the following three superstars have been released from their contracts and we wish them the very best in the future:
Kofi Kingston
Santino Marella
Chris Masters
(Marella!!!!! I had hoped he would get a change to showcase his true talent in a non comedic way but that's the business. Masters too also just returned so to see him go was a surprise.)
Also on Raw, Husky Harris has been sent to Florida Championship Wrestling for repackaging.
(He could do well in FCW under the Bray Wyatt persona)
The following superstars have been released from their Smackdown contracts, and we wish them the best in their futures
DH Smith
Jinder Mahal
Mason Ryan
(The only surprise here was Ryan, I really thought he could go far on Smackdown, on his own or adapting to his strengths and becoming some sort of hired muscle but again that's the business)
-
With the WWE roster shaken up like this, what will the future of Raw and Smackdown hold? I have no fucking clue but man do I look forward to seeing it all unfold very soon.
