WWE has made many changes to its staff in recent months

A lot of talent was let go by WWE this year due to budget cuts. On April 15, WWE released a number of notable names, including Samoa Joe, who was later brought back to NXT. But they weren't the only group of releases this year.

A little over two weeks later, WWE released talent from NXT as well as some backstage personnel who had been with the company for a long time. On June 2, WWE let go some huge names like Aleister Black and Braun Strowman who were part of top storylines at the time.

The latest chain of releases came two days ago. The names let go were primarily wrestlers from 205 Live and NXT.

While Edge was a despised villain for the majority of his first run with WWE, Zain loved his commitment to the character. He admired his ability to narrate a compelling story with his subtle moves and actions inside the ring. He believes no one in the business has come close to the Hall of Famer in terms of staying true to their on-screen gimmick.

If Zain were to book an eye-catching WWE angle, he would pit Cody Rhodes against CM Punk. Zain would have Rhodes highlight Punk’s hypocrisy in coming back to the global juggernaut. Their interaction would lead to Punk turning heel and engaging in a high-profile match with The American Nightmare at a Big Four Premium Live Event.

When not writing, Zain loves to read philosophy, play chess, where he has represented his country at the national level.
