More On The Recent WWE Firings, RAW Rating Is In, More



Raw on Monday night, featuring King general manager William Regal pulling the plug on the Triple H vs. Randy Orton main event, scored hours of 3.13 and 3.46, for a composite 3.3 cable rating.

Regarding recent WWE developmental firings, FCW head Dusty Rhodes was told to make calls on who wasn’t ready for national WWE television. After hearing from Rhodes, WWE dropped Chris Gray, Tommy Taylor and Ryan Bishop from their developmental contracts. Taylor & Gray were signed last spring when there was talk of doing a WWE developmental in the U.K., but those talks have since died down. Also, Taylor & Gray are both cruiserweights, and with no cruiserweight division, there isn’t much interest in smaller wrestlers at the moment, unless one really stands out. Bishop is a former football player that was invited to a New York Giants training camp last spring. People were high on him at first due to his size and athletic ability, but he had absolutely no prior wrestling experience and things didn’t work out.
