A long-time producer was released by WWE after a 14-year long run backstage with the company as part of today’s cutbacks.
Mike Rotunda, 62, has been released by WWE, as reported by PWInsider.
Rotunda is the father of current WWE stars Bray Wyatt and Bo Dallas, and was also known as Irwin R. Shyster (IRS) back in the day, winning the WWF Tag Team Championhip.
