Popular Name Gone From WWE After Six Years With The Company

There goes another one. WWE has been shaken up in several different ways recently and those changes do not seem to be slowing down whatsoever. With a new regime in charge of the company, all kinds of names have been moved around into different spots, with some people leaving altogether. That is the case again, as another popular name has departed from WWE.

According to PWInsider.com, Nigel McGuinness has been released from WWE. This comes after WWE has shaken up their announcing teams with all shows now moving to two announcers. McGuinness is the second commentator to leave WWE after Jimmy Smith earlier this week. McGuinness has worked for the company since 2016 and has done commentary on Main Event, 205 Live, NXT UK and NXT. There is no word on where he will be working next.

Opinion: This isn’t the biggest surprise after everything was shaken up yesterday but it is also a shame as McGuinness was one of the better commentators in WWE. He has the in-ring credentials and the fans respond to him, so it would have been nice to see him getting to work on the bigger stage. McGuinness will wind up in another promotion if he wants to and that company will get a nice boost.
