It’s so hard to not just make the headline “Huge WWE Star Released” and see what comments I get, but it looks like the big hog is unemployed. WWE.com has the story:
BREAKING NEWS: WWE has come to terms on the release of WWE Superstar James Ellsworth. https://t.co/10BKMUMBs1

James Ellsworth released
WWE has come to terms on the release of WWE Superstar James Ellsworth. WWE wishes Ellsworth the best in all of his future endeavors.
Honestly, considering he was just a local talent who managed to get himself over while being squashed, he’s done extremely well for himself with several title shots wrestling against AJ Styles and staying on the top of the card before aligning himself with Carmella. It’s been a helluva fun run, no chin.
Update
Ellsworth posted this on Twitter:
Thank you @WWE for letting me live my dream,thank you fans for all the support, l'll continue to prove #AnyManWithTwoHandsHasAFightingChance
