Reason for NXT Talent Releases, Details on Non-Compete Clause


-- The eight NXT talent that were cut by WWE today was a decision reportedly made due to the company cutting their budget. PWInsider.com reports that the releases were actually supposed to go down about three weeks ago but for one reason or another, it was decided to wait.

-- All the released talent are under 30-day non-compete clauses, according to Sean Ross Sapp of fightfulselect.com. This differs slightly from the standard 90-day non-competes that wrestlers on the main roster are subjected to.
