It’s not a good day for anyone to lose their employment or have their contract cut short. However, companies need to make tough decisions all the time, and that’s what WWE did with a mass release from NXT. It’s possible Triple H was in the loop about the same as well.

One of the individuals who were released during the mass release is Gabe Sapolsky. After he opened up about his release, a Twitter user commented about his decision to sign with WWE.

According to the comment, Sapolsky traded in EVOLVE to have 3.5-year employment with WWE. Sapolsky immediately took to the same platform and responded by correcting the user and calling out the comment. He revealed that WWE actually saved EVOLVE and helped put it on a bigger platform, especially Triple H.

Another fan confirmed Sapolsky’s clarification. He revealed overhearing a conversation that claimed without the signings from NXT talents, EVOLVE wouldn’t have survived.

WWE may not always be spot on with every business decision it makes, but it has to be practical and beneficial to the company. No one in their right mind would take a business decision that impacts it negatively, and definitely not Vince McMahon or HHH.
