Uh oh…here comes The Wrath Of KHAN!!! AEW has reportedly released ten wrestlers/talents today, who will not have no-compete clauses and are immediate free agents. Here’s the list so far: The Boys, Dasha Kuret (Dasha Gonzalez, who was the secondary ring announcer), Jose The Assistant, Jora Johl, Anthony Henry, Gravity, Stu Grayson (again?), Parker Boudreaux, Slim J. Obviously I’m not happy about Dasha because I liked her as a ring announcer, when she started out she was also a co-host for the early episodes of Dark on YouTube (she also wrestled one match a couple years ago). I had read a rumor earlier today that Boudreaux was still under contract for several more months, beyond that it’s disappointing to see The Boys gone as they were a big part of Dalton Castle’s character, and same with Grayson seemingly being done for a second time. Henry had been seeing a lot of action lately, mostly as a jobber. Jose was a big part of LFI as a manager. Johl hasn’t really been used much at all, same for Slim J. Gravity is basically a wrestling pun but was the kind of flippy luchador-type Khan marks out for.
No word on whether or not there may be more cuts coming.
