While he mainly focused on the positives about his pro wrestling profession, Parker Boudreaux dug deeper into his WWE release and contrasted it to how the promotion is now run under TKO and handles releases of wrestlers today, before recalling the precise day of his release.
“Once I was there, it was, like, COVID time, so it was, like, everybody was still kinda sick and stuff like that, and also you needed to get tested loads,” he remembered. “I assumed it was, like, a fantastic day, and I just got back to my apartment, I got the decision from Mr. [John] Laurinaitis, and so they said it was budget cuts.”
Boudreaux then added that the person who released him, John Laurinaitis, is not even signed to WWE anymore, and there are various recent faces in command of deciding who gets hired or released from the promotion who do not know him.
“So it’s the person who fired me that is just not even there, and I talk over with, , many superstars still within the WWE now, and Mr. [Paul] Heyman, another people,” Boudreaux said. “So, it’s just I believe the connection with me and WWE remains to be really solid.”
While it could be surprising to see Boudreaux signed to WWE after his release, several others who were released alongside him, like Dexter Lumis, Dakota Kai, and Candice LeRae, have all made their method to the promotion (and released again), so it may not be too far-fetched.
