NXT Star Oney Lorcan Reportedly Requests Release From WWE

Haven't heard of anyone requesting to leave NXT before (who was actually getting TV time) so this is a surprise. With his Twitter gimmick though he'd be good at any other promotion but I doubt WWE grants his release.

WWE really just needs to do a purge. Even if they're "scared" that someone might become a star elsewhere, they still have a bunch of people on the payroll who wouldn't even main event a MLW, ROH, or Impact card.

 

These dudes are just wasting their time. Pimp Hand McMahon ain’t letting ya go.

 

How the fukk does it even work though?

Like as a regular independent contractor, If you don't show up you're not getting paid and you're fired.


At WWE, Is everyone still just getting paid their downside money to just sit at home? Like what's the difference between sitting in catering and sitting at home if you're not being used? shyt is retarded

 

Who?

 

Oney is dope but he hit his ceiling

 

All that I'm sure of is you can't perform anywhere on they can say you're in breach of contract. I think you still get paid your downside but you don't get bonuses for performing on shows.

Difference in sitting in catering and home a big one though. Catering still counts on your contract but if you have a family, it's wack to have to travel almost 3,000 miles to get told "ah we got nothing for you tonight."

 

Lorcan and Burch were phenomenal but they never gave them any meaningful victories, seems like they were there just to get people over

 

Shid not only that but you gotta pay for hotels/car rentals/food expenses/etc.

 

he's the definition of a vanilla midget in my opinion.

i never got the hype with biff busick, good workrate, but literally bland in every other aspect.

 

i stopped checking for him & his team after I realized that his name is Oney and not Olney.

i was disappointed when I noticed that.

its an uptown thang.

 

Looks like a combination of Cesaro & Dash Wilder

 

They're terrified of having any of the talent go to another company and make something of themselves. It's like Vince personally feels exposed that his creative isn't up to par to help the talent make the most of their skillset.

Cody went from being a joke mid-carder as Stardust to being an EVP of their competition. Juice Robinson went from being the NXT resident jobber to a good hand in Japan. Kenny Omega didn't even make it out of the developmental system and became one of the best wrestlers on the planet for a good while. It's not like any of them was one of the top guys either.

There's a rub that comes from being in the E, and if you leave, you get to eat off that like Moxley did once he bounced. The worst thing for Vince would be if the talent realize that with a bit of hustle, some of them wouldn't even need him.

 

why doesnt the wwe just let these guys go

is aew gonna suddenly monopolize the business if oney lorcan signs with them?

let him be happy

 

He's finally coming for Super Dragon
