Mike Yeaton was a Kevin Dunn guy according to F4Weekly. As I pointed out above his replacement comes from Hunter's inner circle.

Maybe if he was an employee of the company. But he's an independent contractor.

They can contest his employee classification in Court.

but they won't, because then everyone who has been future endeavored could come back and sue WWE for unfair dismissal or similar, claiming they were an employee and citing that case.

That would be the reason why a disgruntled group of Wrestlers with nothing to lose would take the case in the first place.

Would probably get in trouble if I shared it early but DelRioaMania is really funny. Look out for it.

I'm expecting a lot of enzuguris to fresh air.

Shots fired:

Legendary AAA rudo announcer Arturo Rivera tweeted almost an hour ago that Alberto del Rio will be appearing at Triplemania XXII this Sunday with no other details than that.

Triplemania is slated to air on iPPV opposite Summerslam this Sunday 8/17.

This will be definitely something to watch out for in the coming days.

Does he not have a No Compete? Or is that only for guys who are wished the best in their future endeavours?

What can they do if he breaks the 90 day no compete clause.

Take him to court over it?

Well that would be one way to get the WWE into the courtroom to test the Independent contractor status.

Omackeral · 11-08-2014 10:30pm

Appearing may not mean competing (although they don't actually 'compete' in the truest sense of the word)

Lord TSC · 11-08-2014 10:36pm

I think, and I could be wrong, the No compete only counts for companies with major TV deals in America....

gnfnrhead · 11-08-2014 10:45pm

You can wave your no compete clause and work again straight away. They essentially pay you to sit at home for 90 days. The vast majority take it but a few have turned it down. Kurt Angle being the obvious one with his move to TNA.

Maybe as Alberto was straight up fired/released the suggestion of agreeing terms for release never came up.

Wasn't Daniel Bryan allowed to continue as long as he wasn't on tv?

Yup.
WWE allows former talent to compete on indys during the 90 day clause. Sure, take Drew Galloway. Most recent example.

WWE can be ruthless, chew you up and spit you out business (

) but they realise a person has to earn a living and even in some cases have let a wrestler use the WWE trademarked name and music ( X-Pac comes to mind )

Of course... the rule is only on the indys and never another big promotion.

Surprising one this, but Justin Roberts has been future endevoured, effective immediately. WWE didn't renew his contract.

Guess Lilian is back on Raw dutys

Least we don't have too listen too his extra long and drawn out John Cena intros any more!

gnfnrhead · 14-10-2014 8:50am

No idea how he lasted so long.

Omackeral · 14-10-2014 9:11am

Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome your new IMPACT Wrestling ring announcer, Roberrrrrt Jussssssttttttiiin.

grames_bond · 14-10-2014 9:18am

I always liked Justin, but if this means more Lilian then I am ok with that!

rovert · 14-10-2014 12:08pm

It was a budget cut the dogs on the street knew. Lillian only got one extra year on her contract too.

MitchKoobski · 14-10-2014 5:10pm

No matter what you think of him, you can't deny he was the absolute best at saying "THE UNDERTAKER"

Plus 1, i liked the guy. Seems like a huge wrestling fan too and not just some guy who can speak well that has no clue of the business. I wish him well

Ageyev · 14-10-2014 5:57pm

From the October 9, 1995 Nitro.

Insideandout · 14-10-2014 9:03pm

Shame to hear about Robert's release. He seemed like such a big wrestling fan, it must have been his dream job.

aaaaaaaahhhhhh · 14-10-2014 9:04pm

This news makes me sad

http://wrestlingnews.co/the-great-khali-released/

Khali moved to alumni section.

rovert · 14-11-2014 9:46am

Before anyone asks Brad Maddox was moved the Alumni section of the WWE.com when he was fired as Raw GM.

Wouldn't be surprised if they released him though.

Angron · 14-11-2014 10:22am

I wouldn't be surprised if Khali got kept on in some sort of ambassadorial role, but I wouldn't weep if he was done in ring.

gnfnrhead · 14-11-2014 10:24am

I'll be shocked if he is done altogether with the company. He is worth a hell of a lot to them in Asia and especially India. They will find something for him to do.

Stereomaniac · 14-11-2014 10:29am

He was never as compelling to watch as when he came into the company first against The Undertaker.

duuuaaaane · 14-11-2014 11:06am

Greatest World Champion of the modern era.

Moneymaker · 14-11-2014 1:18pm

Can't believe there are people online saying good things about Khali's time in the ring.

He could barely move, sure as **** couldn't wrestle and in general he was plain awful.

Sure he was passable as a monster heel freak of nature, but giving him the WHC made me want to stop watching Smackdown.

The one upside however, is we got this;

gerTheGreat · 15-11-2014 10:58pm

I don't think that this is the first time that Khali has been put in the Alumni section. I seem to remember reading/ hearing that he only works sporadically for the WWE before heading home to work on other projects.

Stereomaniac · 15-11-2014 11:06pm

Did someone on here not mention that he was training to become a policeman in India? I think it might say that on his Wikipedia page even. He has been in a number of movies as well.
