How WWE Superstars Reacted To Talent Cuts

8. Rusev

Arguably the biggest name let go by WWE during this mass exodus was former U.S. Champion Rusev.

Long being known as one of the most under-utilised talents under the WWE banner, it now appears that Rusev will finally be able to realise his limitless potential elsewhere.

In typically blunt fashion, the 'Bulgarian Brute' signed off from WWE life with a cheeky 'Thank you All, Rusev out!' on Twitter.

Rusev's real-life wife (and on-screen ex-wife) still appears to have a job in the company, so it will be interesting to see if WWE reference his departure on their programming in the coming weeks.
