Adam Wilbourn and Andy H. Murray bring you today's daily news briefing.
Join WhatCulture's Andy H. Murray and Adam Wilbourn as they bring you Friday's rundown of all the latest wrestling news.
A troubling situation is unfolding in WWE, with Gerald Brisco, Sarah Stock, and Mike Rontuda all let go from the promotion within the past 24 hours (00:32). All three were furloughed as part of WWE's April cutbacks. It now looks like another round of budget cuts is on the horizon, though it's currently unclear whether or not this will mean more independent contractors losing their jobs.
Adjacent to this is a new report on WWE salary cuts (04:06), in front of the cameras and behind, as well as an update on the company's current staffing situation.
It's over to AEW after that, with a new Wrestling Observer Radio report bringing much-needed clarification of when, exactly, next week's episode of Dynamite will air (05:43). We finish on Finn Balor's recent comments on jumping from the "main roster" to NXT and whether or not he thinks it has benefitted his career (08:32).
