Stamford, CT - April 7, 2023 : World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. also known as WWE logo on corporate headquarters building in Connecticut
As we previously reported here on eWn, Michael Levin, the Vice President of International Events and General Manager of Emerging Markets for WWE, is gone from the company. Levin had been associated with WWE for over seven years and operated out of the London office.
It is said that Levin’s departure was due to the TKO merger, which rendered his position obsolete.
Steve Rubin, the Senior Director, TV Event Relations, has also been released from WWE after 26 years. He started out as a production assistant and worked his way up to the position he held until now.
WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair isn’t happy with the news of Rubin’s release, writing:
“This Is The Worst Professional Move I’ve Ever Seen In My Entire Life To Let Go Of A Man Who Was So Generous And Good, Who Accommodated Everyone Including Me And My Family, And My World Of Friends. God Bless You Steve Rubin! I’m So Sorry!”
