The following talents have been removed from the AEW website roster, signifying their official departure from the company:

*Arn Anderson.

*Jake Hager.

*Mark Henry.

*Paige VanZant.
VanZant was still employed, I thought she was just there for the guest MMA people that Dan Lambert was in a stort with
 
The Hollywood Reporter broke that WWE's Tiffany Stratton has signed with Paradigm for representation in film, television, books, graphic novels, brand partnerships, and speaking engagements, among other realms.

The article notes, "Paradigm is betting that her stock will only rise as wrestling is poised for greater exposure thanks to a $5 billion, 10-year deal with Netflix starting in January 2025. Paradigm hopes to model Stratton’s career on trajectories flown by Dwayne Johnson, John Cena and Dave Bautista, all whom originated on WWE and who became some of the most bankable names in Hollywood."

Paradigm recently signed WWE World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest for representation in those realms as well.

As PWInsider.com has previously reported, there's been a big uptick in Hollywood interest in a number of WWE performers this year.
 
I’m really hoping this angle with New Day & Final Testament is somehow a springboard to bring Big E back.
Homie needs to let it go. Get a solid backstage role, hold the fam down, and enjoy life. It sucks but something that's this bad and taking this long ain't to be played with. New Day ran it's course and no need to force it through a serious Injury.

I think he's already come to terms with it. I think the procedure is just to help him with the pain. He's got a great gig as an ambassador and analyst so he's always gonna be in the mix.
 



“Off the top of my head — and, listen, I love Vince, he gave me so many opportunities. But I think it was kind of time for him to move on. It’s unfortunate that it happened in the way that it happened. But it’s nice having people in charge of me that understand how important it is for you to be home for birthdays, and home for Thanksgiving, and home for Christmas.

“Vince McMahon, he had Raw on Monday night live. He doesn’t care if you had kids. I came to him when I was 35 and my back really started going and I pleaded with him like, ‘Man, I got to like not do as many shows, maybe do half the tour and be able to recover.’

“And he just looked at me and was like, ‘Oh, I need you on those shows, Randy. Mother Nature gets us all.’

“And to hear that and go, ‘Ok, well I guess there’s no other thing I can do other than just wear myself out down to the nub until I can’t walk anymore for this man.’ And all of the opportunities he gave me, it’s nice having him out of there. And it’s nice having his son-in-law Triple H running the game. Nick Khan’s great. Everybody at TKO that’s come in [and] stepped in, they seem to get it. And it’s just a different era…

“I think the way that they care for talent nowadays and make sure that talent’s good and if they need a little bit of a break — we’re only human — they get it, most of the time.”
 
You know… as much shit I give Ronda she at least made it further in martial arts, mma and wrestling than Matt Riddle.

Dude self destructed with no where near the success she had both in and out of the cage.

And he was completely open about his coping mechanisms too.

Weak ass male right there.
