Kevin Dunn is being blamed for the release of the Iconics as he simply made it know repeatedly that he “didn’t get them” Wasn’t it also Dunn that supposedly had a problem with Becky’s accent? I’m not accusing him of anything, I’m just pointing out a pattern

I’m not accusing him of anything, I’m just pointing out a pattern No matter how awful someone is, people with tenure will always keep their job over someone new, no matter how good or how much better that new person is. That seems to be the case with Dunn. Vince has been with him so long that the only way Dunn will ever not be in WWE is if he quits or drops dead because Vince isn’t ever firing him.

Kevin Dunn needs to go. If he would be forced out, he'd go out in the gorilla position If the stories are to be believed, Trips and Stephanie are not fans of his and he will be the first one gone once Vince is finally finished.

It sucks to see anyone lose their job but we go through this every year. The one thing I always notice after it happens is we're flooded with the "So & so was misused and can/could be a much bigger star outside of WWE"....but rarely, if ever they are. WWE isnt doing anything any different than any other money making business does. In the work force they tend to cycle out older people as they retire, step down or get moved into other positions while replacing them with younger people that they can keep for 30+ years. While age isnt as big of a factor in situations like this simply put *if* you were going to have 2 roster spots and your choices were Rhea & Biance (for example) or Billie & Peyton, you're obviously going to take the former because they've shown more than the latter has. Personally the only 2 real losses in this group were Joe & Bo. Hearing that health could be an issue with Joe & they wanted him to stay on as a commentator, I understand letting him walk to be happy. I dont see a reason Bo was never repackaged to be with Bray/Fiend. Somehow you just gotta put him in the Funhouse. Even if he's that guy that takes the L's and beating so you save the Bray/Fiend character from doing it. Deonna Purrazzo. The Good Brothers. Brian Myers. Eric Young. Heath Slater. Mike Kanellis. Juice Robinson. FTR. Sami Callihan. This is simply a list of people that are being used now. This list does not include people that are being used and are much bigger stars after their release. Almost none of them are “stars,” especially working for Impact. Yes, they are heavily featured, and are being used, but they aren’t big wrestling stars now.

Guessing none will be made today False. News just broke out a minute ago. “WWE has come to terms on the release of Diviak. We wish him the best in all of his future endeavors.” Source: Official WWE Twitter page.

If you didnt know who any of these were before/during their WWE stint, you likely dont know them afterwards. FTR hasnt dont anything in AEW that they didnt do in WWE or NXT. Good Brothers arent any bigger than they were in NJPW. Young, Slater, Kanellis, Callihan could all walk down the street and if you're not a diehard wrestling fan you likely wouldnt notice them. I may give him Juice Robinson, he's done quite well since living NXT...but I also said "rarely" too...not never
