What Happened To EVERY 2020 WWE Black Wednesday Release?
Спорт
In April 2020, WWE released and furloughed a huge number of their wrestlers, producers and other staff. From long-time superstars Heath Slater, Curtis Axel and Zack Ryder to underutilised talent like EC3, Mike Kanellis and Rusev, we ask where are they now in What Happened To Every 2020 WWE Black Wednesday Release?

I think the reason Cain Velasquez did not really catch on is because he looks like the base character creator in a WWE game if you don't change anything.

7:18 August of 2021? Damn didn’t know the dude could time travel.
Even now, seeing that shot of Eric Rowan holding the sign for Brodie gets me choked up.
I’m always impressed with the opening song. It’s so catchy and I catch myself singing along, although my vocals cant match Adam lol.
7:11, why is he dressed as Rhea Ripley!? 😂 I desperately need context!

The only time I've seen Dan Matha was when NXT hyped up his debut for weeks, only for Joe to come out and demolish him. As for EC3, it is absolutely astounding that WWE did NOTHING with a guy who is perfect for the WWE television style of wrestling.

Me: "That's a lot of releases. This video should just about be done..." * *clicks video* * NOT EVEN HALFWAY!? 😯
So Jaksic wrestled in the future if he wrestled in August 2021? Weird ;)

Just want to make a correction regarding The Colons. Epico and Orlando Colon are the same person, Orlando Colon. Primo is Edwin Colon, so it's very likely that they're going by Edwin y Orlando Colon, which is what they go by in WWC.

No way it was fake, that wasn't acting that was legitimate emotion. More then likely they saw the clip and decided to make a angle outta it
I completely forgot about Cain being signed at all. What a crazy 2 months that was
Man, with a name like Zorro Vesta, professional wrestler is the job you're destined to have. That or supervillain/mad scientist/quirky professor.
I trained with No Way Jose and Cezar after their releases. Good guys!! I’ve also been on a show with the colons and they are doing well also! Also Eric Redbeard has done more than 3 matches.
Let’s not forget. They let go of Billie Kay, and then a few hours later it was reported that Peyton Royce had cut her contract short, presumably she she didn’t have to wrestle without her best friend. Hopefully they’ll get signed together again and the Iiconics will make a grand re-entry

I think picture came from a Halloween house show
Best. Theme song. Ever.
I’m guessing this video was recorded just before Rusev won the TNT title, but were able to edit a last minute image of him wearing the belt?
Simple mistake to make (regarding Tay), but I think the NXT talent were given 30 non-compete clauses. I also had no idea half of these people who were signed by AEW actually worked for WWE previous such as cezar or nick camaroto
You do realize this will be a yearly series? 🤣
Another great video
I’m so happy you mentioned the challenge
This video is from the future. At around 7:15 Adam says "in August of 2021". Adam is a time traveler.
1:10 Great shot of Serena Deeb, holding the NWA Women's Championship. Possibly the most talented women's wrestler in the World.
Is it bad im actually surprised by who is on the list? I didnt know Primo and Epico nor Curtis Axel were released 😬
In August 2021? Adam is an alien!
You should do what happened to all the wrestlers who wrestled on all in back in 2018 or even just the people who were in the over budget battle royal.
I have missed this intro.

Can you Do a what happened to that Wrestler on the first nxt takeover event?
Maverick is a funny case. Got fired then brought back and then released in a year
But what about the man, the myth, the absolute legend. Mike Chioda
Love this channel!!!
Stilll think Aiden English could of been a great main roaster commentator. He did some great work on 205 live.
Take a guess of how many went to AEW
Its really sad to see that all the nexus members have been : let go or released 💔
9:52 Guess this was recorded a long time ago because he’s since rebranded that channel. It’s been... Many months at this point
I forgot all about my guy No Way Jose
He said August of 2021 and we still in June 2021 lol
I was today years old when I realized that Sabatelli and Bononi were different people.
Nick Camarillo reminds me of Hercules Hernandez his name in your song
good video
Wasnt Logan's last match against Baszler? Broke her arm kayfabe yes?
Wait, I'm confused by your wording, on FTR. Right after you mentioned they were in AEW, you said right after, reigning tag champions, umm I'm confused by that. I might be hearing it wrong, but what I did hear, I speak on.
15:49 WILD BOAR CAMEO!!!!
When you say pronounce Colon like "Cologne" it sounds pretty cool. But when they came to ringside and the graphics say "The Colons"... they might as well have been called "The Sphincters" or "The Bumholes".
In August of 2021? Adam is clairvoyant now apparently.
Ah that youngster Carlos colon
Just thought about where this video was the other day! GET OUT OF MY BRAIN!
Well now that lio rush and mark henry are now in awe maybe their careers will take a positive turn.
It gets worse now that we all know what "budget cuts" actually means.
Yasssssss!!!!!! THE SONG IS BACK!!!!
Maria on every single post on social media has to remind you she’s a mom wrestler and how you need to watch RoH women’s wrestling
Adam the colons promotion have been running events.
Man I hope rush could come back
1:24 the song
U need a match ,tucker vs otis
7:21 Adams seen the future.
I won't lie, I thought Curtis Axel was still in WWE
i need to know how primo is doing
Mj Jenkins would have been big on nxt
Dan Matha had like 80+ vignettes when joe was still NXT champ and never appeared.
Between 7.10 - 7.20 In August 2021, were only May 2021????
Next year you guys can do the same thing with 2021 releases...
Wait I Think Sarah Last Match Was MITB VS Shayna
He sed in august of 2021 wen talkin about aleksander jaksic in germany... This vid was made 3 months before that
