Backstage News on What Might Lead to Brooklyn Brawler’s WWE Release

As noted, Brooklyn Brawler was released from WWE due to a “small mistake” he made, despite having worked for the company for close to 30 years.

According to The Wrestling Observer, Brawler’s release might have been due to him calling into The Taz Show, however that remains unconfirmed. Internal speculation is that while the call in is not the official reason why he was let go, it didn’t help Brawler any especially since it was so close to the time WWE was making talent cuts.

Blue Pants Hosting New Series

As seen in the following preview, former WWE NXT star Blue Pants, aka Leva Bates, is featured in Kayfabe Commentaries’ new “Bombshells” series. Bates speaks with TNA Knockout Jade, aka Mia Yim, and Kennadi Brink in the first video.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
