I could see Lana in AEW just to manage her husband there. Plus I think she and Brandi are good friends.

Braun will take a few months off after the clause ends so he can rest up some old nagging injuries.

Black I can see him end up in either AEW or Impact since those might be his best fit.

Ruby Riott would be a someone in Impact Wrestling if we are being realistic.

Buddy Murphy, any company will be luck enough to hire him.

As far as Murphy goes I honestly would like to him in Dragon Gate or even NOAH because Murphy could have plenty of great matches in those companies especially NOAH if he went against Nakajima

Late to the party but I was geniunely pretty surprised at these releases. Some pretty big names.

It seemed like they were actually going somewhere with Aleister on his return so it got me all like :confused

Braun was also just recently in the title picture, so that was a bit of a shocker too.

His last PPV was a WWE Championship match(talking about Braun)

But if he was making $1.2 million a year like rumored, then I guess I get it.

Drop departments and lose expensive ventures, and talent who do nothing for profit.

Sounds like a company selling to me.

According to PWInsider, there have been talks within WWE that Aleister Black may have been cut too quickly and there has been a push within the company to bring him back.

PWInsider adds that there are some within WWE feel that Black was more of a victim to "broken promises" and "start/stop creative" more than anything he did on his own accord.

Black previously mentioned Bruce Prichard was very protective of him. It's not too far fetched to imagine Prichard, who has had the ear of Vince McMahon, is the one heading these talks.

Was listening to Tommy End on Renee Paquette's podcast today and I definitely don't get the impression he'd have any interest in coming back, if that were a possibility (which I don't really but that it is)

I rather he not go back, and that he goes anywhere else.

Yeah if you listen to the twitch stream he did, I don’t think he’s really interested in coming back. At least not in the foreseeable future.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see him pull a McIntyre though.Wrestle all over the world, build your name value, then parlay that into a return.

If people keep spreading rumors, they'll get those hands.

I know this is an old comment but I'd loooove to see Murphy in Noah. I doubt it'll happen tho cause Corona.

Give it time, once Corona has died off and people get vaccinated I am sure we could see it happening. My main reasoning is because his style fits so well with NOAH's style.
