For those that don't have a FaceBook page:

I just want to say thank you to WWE, Inc. for allowing me to be part of an incredible entertainment experience. On Monday, I asked for my release and the company was gracious enough to grant my request.

I realized recently that being a Superstar means sacrificing certain things, including time with my family. As a new father, my heart broke every time I had to leave to go on the road. I didn't ever want to miss another moment with my daughter, so I made the decision to be a full time dad and hang up my boots.

I will miss everyone in the locker room tremendously as they have all become a second family to me. I want to thank my coaches and teachers that really helped me along the way: Fit Finlay, Arn Anderson, Edge, Christian, Kane, Jericho, Dr. Tom, Norman Smiley, and Billy Kidman.

I also want to thank my boys. You know who you are. Especially though, a huge thank you to Hawkins. You were like a brother to me the last year and I'll miss you and will always love you bro. I wish you the best and thanks for understanding that I had to go be a dad. When she's older, and able to realize what happened, I know Mia will thank you as well.

Thanks to all the dedicated fans of #ReksAndHawkins and to The #RekkingCrew. I would never have survived without you.

For anyone interested, I am currently the owner of an Internet Marketing Company that specializes in Search Engine Optimization, Pay-Per-Click, Website Design, and Reputation Management. You can find my company here:

Sucks to see him go when they were starting to get more screen time. At least he gets to spend time with his kid though, hope everything goes alright for him.

Dammit. It was... kind of a nice run, Rekking Crew. Hope you can come back soon.

I'd definitely keep Hawkins in a tag-team role. How about pairing him with Heath Slater? They're both "tag-team specialists" they look similar, and have similar characters...

Hate saying it though, Slater's too good in this "cocky jobber" role.

Wow I didnt expect Tyler Reks to quit I thought WWE would fire him. I guess he got out before he was fired. But I respect him for his decision its not an easy job being on the road all the time getting beaten up in matches and missing your family. Good luck to him im sure he will get work on the indies

If you read the post you would see that he has decided to quit wrestling all together. He has been running a web service company during his entire WWE career which he will now focus on full time. I ask of you to please read more than just the title of a thread and just the first couple of lines.

I think him leaving is a bigger surprise Mr. Great White. Not everybody appears as their character is in wrestling.
