More On Several Recent WWE Releases And Backstage Restructuring

They’re done too. WWE has been going through a lot of changes in recent months, with a lot of them being in front of the camera. There have been all kinds of releases from the roster, but several of them have been from the corporate side of things. WWE has undergone quite the restructuring, and now a lot more people are leaving over another change.

As previously reported, WWE released several more backstage employees earlier this month. This included many members of Stephanie McMahon’s staff, including Laura Petrocelli, who has been praised by McMahon in the past. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, these cuts were made because McMahon’s Branding department is being merged with the Marketing department. There is no word on if WWE will be making any more releases as a result of the merger.

McMahon has quite her own set of memorable moments. Check out what she has done in WWE:

Opinion: These changes continue to feel like they are building up to something bigger, but it is hard to say what that is. The main idea you’ll hear about is a potential sale, but that would be such a game changing move that I’m not sure I can imagine it actually happening. Either way, things are certainly changing and it’s sad to see so many people losing their jobs as a result.

What do these changes mean for WWE? How much will they hurt the company? Let us know in the comments below.
