Eh. WWE doesn't regularly send roster members home for TV unless they're injured. It's pretty much always all-hands on deck unless they're not being featured on television at all (someone like Summer Rae, for example, who is healthy, but not used.) Plus, Meltzer is reporting it was a walk out, and he doesn't usually get that stuff wrong. I know the cool thing around here is to rag on him, but he's right about this backstage stuff way more often than he's not. Not saying he's wrong, but until WWE confirms, I'm not going to worry. Plus, in the past year: Meltzer said AJ was going to Raw at the Shakeup. Or at least strongly suggested it. I've been watching Raw (oh god. I've been watching Raw) since the shakeup. Never saw him there. Meltzer also said Dana Brooke was in line for the WWE Raw Women's title. I'm assuming it must have occurred at a house show in Cancun, because it sure as heck didn't happen hee. And I do love that Summerslam matchup between Nakamura and AJ. It was a classic. Good thing he reported that it was happening. Also, shame that he was the one that explained why Sane couldn't use her elbow drop any more because of Bayley. That top rope elbow like drop that she does is a decent fill in for now. And then there was that thing about Aiden English crying being reported as a jab at Mauro And I think it was him that reported Kevin Owens is being called KO because he's Kinda Overweight. And Mauro Ranallo being referred to as MR because he's mentally re.... Heavens forbid those are their initials. Yes. Most of those were speculations based on him talking to his sources. Don't know how much his sources were relied upon in this report, but the thing is, he's been wrong before and countless other times. He looks for meaning behind every action so that if somehow the stars align and he's right, he's the Oracle of Professional Wrestling. And, is it not possible that Neville is in fact injured? Those are all storyline things though that could've changed after word got to Meltzer and Meltzer reported on them. Can you point to a time where Meltzer has reported someone walked out or was gone and it turned out to be false? Because I'm having a really tough time finding that out. I've seen it plenty of times with other dirt sheets reporting things like Rusev, Lana and Ziggler all being on the way out but Meltzer usually plays those things pretty close to the chest so if he's reporting a walk out, until I see Neville on WWE TV again or until Meltzer has confirmed one way or another that he walked out or didn't I'm withholding judgement on this one. I want to see him succeed in the WWE but there are a tonne of dream matches on the indies for him too.

I would walk too if I had to job to that pathetic loser Enzo.

I would walk too if I had to job to that pathetic loser Enzo. For me the frustration would very much be similar to when Punk walked out. Neville busted his ass for the past 9+ months having some really good matches while putting together one of the best, most fully formed face to heel transformations the WWE has seen in quite some time only to have two other established main roster guys wander in and essentially takeover the brand. And if I were him I would've asked what the plan was for me in the future since they creatively boxed me in. And if they didn't give me a good enough answer I would have no qualms walking out at that point until they figured it out.

I would walk too if I had to job to that pathetic loser Enzo. He's not a good wrestler, but he has made the cruiserweight division more entertaining and interesting than it's ever been. It's about more than in-ring skills. Neville and Austin Aries were a step in the right direction, but as far as mic skills go, and making the crowd give a damn, Enzo blows them all away. There were better technical wrestlers than Hulk Hogan or Stone Cold or the Rock, but none of them became megastars.

In this case, Neville should have been valued higher and I don't blame him if he's pissed. WWE doesn't give a damn about their talent, and are as fickle as the fans when it comes to changing things on a dime. WWE deserves to have more wrestlers walk out like Punk, Rhodes, Aries, and Neville.

It's been reported that Neville did walked out after being told he will lose to Enzo in the main event and asked for his released. Everyone can stop saying it's fake or not true now, sucks that he's gone.

Put it like this the Cruiserweight storyline has closed 2 Raw's which is something you would never have seen. Many will disagree but Enzo has breathed life into that division and it has felt like an important part of Raw. In WWE star power is what matters. If your a draw and sell tons of merch then your valuable to the company and get highly featured. Sadly so many good wrestlers have came and gone but lacked star power to become major players.

Just curious; why didn’t you bold the part before that specifies “as far as mic skills go?”

People seems to forget that WWE is a business. And their goal is to make money. They gave Neville the title for months and pushed him to the moon. He put on great matches on a weekly basis. But fans still weren't tuning in to 205. Fans still weren't watching, but making sure to constantly comment on how bad the show is.
So WWE is trying a new approach. And whether you will admit it or not, Enzo pulls in the viewers. He hasn't been given the final spot on RAW by accident. By showcasing him more, and giving him the title, they're hoping fans will tune in and realize the show isn't as bad as people claim. They're hoping it will help the division grow. Whether or not you agree with it doesn't change the fact that Neville had a great run, but wasn't bringing in the fan-base the show needs right now.
For me personally, I love Neville. And I hope he doesn't quit. But I can't blame WWE for trying to get the show more views.

Neville had one of the best heel runs on the roster I can remember, and its not fair to lay the low ratings at his feet. Ratings of all the WWE Shows have sucked for a while. That's not Neville's fault.

It looks like the rumors are true. As much as I love Neville's work, he's straight up being a little b****.
Amazing how entitled someone can be with only two years of being on the main roster.

Entitled? Or standing up for yourself when you're being booked to sh*t against a guy who doesn't deserve it. He carried that division for the better part of the year and should have gotten a reward once his reign was over. It was clear cut and dry that they had no plans for him moving forward. So out he went. It's hard to defend WWE when they're constantly giving rewards to the wrong people and alienating the truly talented ones.

I love Neville. One of the best parts of this year. Kinda feel like he is overreacting a bit here though. But I'm seriously thinking what wwe is gonna do with 205 without him. Besides Enzo there is no one there that really gets a strong reaction out of the fans besides Neville and Enzo. That division is in crazy jeopardy if this is true. Hopefully wwe realizes this and despite his recent behavior fights for him to stay.

As talented as Neville is, so is Enzo — just in another capacity. You're not understanding that it has only been TWO YEARS! What does he expect he's entitled to? He's been dominant, he's been featured, and he hasn't even freakin' lost for most of this year. What does he think that he deserves to never lose?? Ask Christian if it felt good to lose the World Heavyweight Championship the night after he won it for the first time in his decade long career. Did he walk out? Did Ryder walk out the day after Wrestlemania? How about Ziggler? do you see him walking out after the crap he's been handed in the last year? Even Cody and Aries left like professionals and like a men. They fulfilled their job and handed in their notices.

I'm saying WWE gave him a lengthy run and the numbers weren't moving, so they are trying a new strategy. They need to get eyes on the show ASAP. Going with Enzo is just to see how that helps. If it doesn't... they'll try someone else shortly. Any business owner would do the same thing.

Who does Neville think he is?? STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN? Jeez. I mean I get it but its pretty pathetic to walk out of WWE because you have to job to someone you don't think is as good as you. So sick of the entitlement a lot of these guys seem to have.
If I had a dime for all the dimes Neville has drawn in the WWE, I'D HAVE ZERO DIMES.

I find it hilarious that quite a few people are jumping on Neville, assuming that the only reason he walked out is due to having lost to Enzo Amore. Do people really assume Neville is THAT unprofessional? There are so many possible reasons for Neville supposedly walking out.
