As the list of WWE releases today continues to grow, it now
appears that Andrea Listenberger has been relieved of her duties on the WWE
creative team.
Listenberger is largely seen as being the driving force
behind the Mandy Rose and Otis love story that we saw culminate at WrestleMania
36 earlier this month, and Andrea herself has taken to Twitter to address this
most chaotic of days in the world of sports entertainment.

In addition to Andrea Listenberger being future endeavoured
by WWE, the other names let go by the company currently stands at Drake
Maverick, Heath Slater, Lio Rush, Karl Anderson, Luke Gallows, EC3, Curt
Hawkins, Eric Young, Sarah Logan, Erick Rowan, Aiden English, Kurt Angle, Pat
Buck, Sarah Stock, Billy Kidman, Shane Helms, Lance Storm, Mike Rotunda, Fit
Finlay, Shawn Daivari, Scott Armstrong, Epico Colon, Primo Colon, Mike
Kanellis, Maria Kanellis, and long-time referee Mike Chioda.
Sadly, it appears as if there are still more cuts to come as
WWE looks to balance the books as part of the company’s financials taking a
major hit due to the ongoing pandemic that’s devastating the globe.
Once described as the Swiss Army Knife of WhatCulture, Andrew can usually be found writing, editing, or presenting on a wide range of topics.
As a lifelong wrestling fan, horror obsessive, and comic book nerd, he's been covering those topics professionally as far back as 2010. In addition to his current WhatCulture role of Senior Content Producer, Andrew previously spent nearly a decade as Online Editor and Lead Writer for the world's longest-running genre publication, Starburst Magazine, and his work has also been featured on BBC, TechRadar, Tom's Guide, WhatToWatch, Sportkskeeda, and various other outlets, in addition to being a Rotten Tomatoes-approved film critic.
Between his main dayjob, his role as the lead panel host of Wales Comic Con, and his gig as a pre-match host for Wrexham AFC games, Andrew has also carried out a hugely varied amount of interviews, from the likes of Robert Englund, Kane Hodder, Adrienne Barbeau, Rob Zombie, Katharine Isabelle, Leigh Whannell, Bruce Campbell, and Tony Todd, to Kevin Smith, Ron Perlman, Elijah Wood, Giancarlo Esposito, Simon Pegg, Charlie Cox, the Russo Brothers, and Brian Blessed, to Kevin Conroy, Paul Dini, Tara Strong, Will Friedle, Burt Ward, Andrea Romano, Frank Miller, and Rob Liefeld, to Bret Hart, Sting, Mick Foley, Ricky Starks, Jamie Hayer, Britt Baker, Eric Bischoff, and William Regal, to Mickey Thomas, Joey Jones, Phil Parkinson, Brian Flynn, Denis Smith, Gary Bennett, Karl Connolly, and Bryan Robson - and that's just the tip of an ever-expanding iceberg.
