WWE’s EVP of Talent Relations has been released from the company.
According to a report from Aaron Varble, Dan Ventrelle was released from WWE on Thursday. Ventrelle joined WWE several years ago and was considered to be a “Nick Khan/Paul Levesque guy.”
It is said that additional cuts from that particular department may be coming soon.
WWE President Nick Khan sent the following memo to employees regarding Ventrelle’s exit:
“WWE has begun the process of reorganizing its Talent Relations group. Moving forward, Chris Legentil, in addition to his role in Comms, will help us in leading this new group. Matt Altman, in addition to his role in Marketing, will be working closely with Chris to help in this endeavor.
Talent Development and Recruiting will now report into Shawn Michaels.
All of Talent, which includes Talent Relations, Development and Recruiting, will continue to ultimately report into Paul Levesque.
As of today, Dan Ventrelle will be moving on from WWE. We thank Dan for his tremendous contributions.”
