So I read the other day that supposedly the WWE has a close to finalized list of guys that are getting future endeavored. I went through the roster and came up with probable guys and ladies that could be considered for this.
-Alex Riley -Alicia Fox -Camacho -Curt Hawkins (could get a pass bc he helped Rock and is boys with Punk) -Evan Bourne (if he doesn't retire himself due to injury) -Ezekiel Jackson -Goldust -Heath Slater -Hunico -The Usos -Jinder Mahal -Johnny Curtis -JTG -Justin Gabriel -Kaitlyn -Mason Ryan -Maxine -Michael McGillicutty -Sin Cara (been a flop so far, but he is a HHH project) -Tamina Snuka -Ted Dibiase -Trent Barreta -Tyler Reks -Tyson Kidd -Yoshi Tatsu
How sad is it that I can name off 20 plus guys in their midcard that have nothing going for them?! Granted some of them are injured, but still! Makes me shake my head about how lazy the WWE is creatively these days. Who do you guys this is getting the papers?

I'm going to guess that the WWE aren't actually planning sweeping cuts mere days after receiving confirmation of their largest PPV buyrate of all time. That said, there ARE a few names on that list that I genuinely had no idea still worked for the company...

be surprised if any of the foreigners get released, considering how important it is for the wwe to gain in overseas territories. So maybe, hawkins, barreta, reks, riley and kidd?

jackson will surely be gone. jtg also. would alos be surprised to see any of the foreign guys go. would not surprise me to see hunico go back under a mask in future as a "new superstar" so he is useful.

I can see Trent Barreta getting released but i think guys like Reks and Hawkins will stay because NXT has actually became a good show recently and those guys are part of the reason why

Unless they put Okamoto in the ring instead of managing Tensai, Tatsu will stay. JSports pretty much leans on WWE to have a Japanese guy on the active roster all the time as part of their contract, or so I've heard.We get Superstars and NXT on TV here, so that's not a completely asinine statement.

Hopefully, ezekiel jackson, heath slater, and jinder mahal. not that i want people just just lose their jobs, but any time i see these dudes on tv, i change the channel immediately.

Usos, Curtis, McGillicutty, Maxine, Kaitlyn, Kidd, Reks, Hawkins, etc. are the core of NXT so unless they are planning on completely revamping the show and scrapping all current storylines, I don't see them getting cut. They have a good thing going on over there with the quirky storylines. If they have big plans for guys like Ambrose and KO, they wouldn't debut them on NXT.
Sin Cara I doubt it. If there was any time for him to be released, it would have been last summer when all that drama was going on. And how has he been a flop? Yeah the injuries/drug use is unfortunate, but I remember Meltzer reporting him as being one of the top merch sellers amongst kids so I don't see how making the company a lot of money= flop.

Alex Riley Curt Hawkins Ezekiel Jackson Heath Slater Jinder Mahal Mason Ryan Trent Barreta Tyler Reks
i'm sure these people will get released since they are barley used or just extra space

If I was in charge....
Kane and Hornswoggle for sure (although I know neither are going to be released)
But more realistic ones I would release are JTG, Alicia Fox, Evan Bourne as soon as he is medically cleared, Tyler Reks, Curt Hawkins, and the Usos.

Not so certain that Slater will be future endeavored, he's somebody that I think could grow into a decent performer.
I'd say Curt Hawkins for sure which is a g.d. shame since they have a feud for him just sitting there with Zach Ryder.
Zach is a huge deal now thanks to his Youtube videos and what about Curt? He tried the same thing and guess what? The idiot fans didn't flock to HIS channel. Zach has thousands of followers on twitter, guess how many Curt has? A FRACTION of that. And why? What in the hell does Zach have that Curt doesn't? Curt was hand picked by Edge, just like Zach was. He was in the main event of Wrestlemania four years ago but are people talking about him? No, they're talking about Zach. Freaking. Ryder. Zach is a fluke and if Curt Hawkins is about to be 'future endeavored' than by god he's going to take that jersey shore reject with him.
Bam. No need for Tyler Reks, no need for any stupid riding crop, ready made feud that would light up the lower mid card and end up making both of them look like a million bucks.
