How WWE Superstars Reacted To Talent Cuts

9. Zack Ryder

After spending 14 years 'living (his) dream in WWE', former Intercontinental and U.S. Champion Zack Ryder was also cut from the company on April 15.

Ryder told his followers on Twitter that, as he was being released from the company, he was smiling at a painting on his wall of the moment he won the Intercontinental Championship ladder match at WrestleMania 32. The image of him hugging his father on the Grandest Stage of Them All clearly reminded Ryder of how much he had achieved in WWE and he now seems to be ready for the future.

He ended his tweet by proclaiming that he's '#AlwayzReady & beyond excited for the future.'
