Former WWE Name Says Vince McMahon Will Re-Sign Stars To Bury Them

Speaking on his weekly Ad-Free shows podcast, former WWE referee Mike Chioda has opened up about how he thinks Vince McMahon will re-sign wrestlers that he has fired, just to bury them.

Mike Chioda, who was released by WWE in April after over thirty years of service to the company, said that it isn’t uncommon for WWE to rehire someone to get revenge for something that has happened:

“Sometimes it’s a money thing. It’s not even who does the job, I think it’s all about the money. I’ve known guys who were in the company and they may have done something wrong years ago or did the company wrong. If they want to get you, they have to hire you back to get you if that makes sense.

“Once they hire you back, then they can get you. Now they can do what they want with you. Do they want to job you out every week? Do they want you to look stupid? I’ve heard things go down. Unfortunately, sometimes you see somebody that buried the company every which way and talk sh*t about the company.

“You think to yourself, that guy will never be back. People who say I’ll never be back, I tell them never say never in this business. If there’s money to be made five years down the road with this guy again, Vince will hire him back. He will make the money and then decide what to do with him after that.”

This comes after Mike Chioda recently opened up about his status with AEW after working a few dates with the promotion after his release earlier this year. You can read more about that by clicking here.
