Former WWE NXT Referee Stephon Smith Comments On His WWE Release

Former WWE NXT referee Stephon Smith commented on his WWE release via Twitter on Thursday. He said,

“I’ve had some time to reflect and I want to say I feel great and I’m in a positive mindset. I’ve doubled down on my time in the gym and I’m 100% ready to continue my path as a referee. I’d like to thank Triple H, Scott Armstrong, and everyone at NXT for being a pleasure to work with and for providing me with skills and opportunities that go beyond refereeing.”

Smith will be free to work for any wrestling organization starting on September 9th.

For closure.
