5 Superstars Who Are Likely To Be Released By 2023
Whenever a new superstar makes his way through the curtains, you cannot help but feel the excitement and adrenaline. The childhood dream of every wrestler is to one day come down that ramp with their friends and family watching them. But once a Superstar comes full circle, the company decides to wish them well in their future endeavours.” On that note, Here are five Superstars who may be released by WWE by the end of 2023.
BRAUN STROWMAN
Starting off with a Spoiler, the Monster Among Men is the first to make the list. The 39-year-old has been lacking a major feud with a household superstar, and that has kept him away from the limelight. The former strongman competitor is no longer the biggest guy in the locker room, as he was Dwarfed when matched up against Omos. With a talent like The Monster among men, we can safely say that he won’t waste his prime fighting around the midcards, and with Adam Scherr being a recognised name in the Indies Circuit, it may just be a matter of time before he makes a move. Add to that Braun Strowman’s enormous wages, and you sure know he will face the axe by 2023.
CARLITO
For those who don’t watch wrestling regularly, Carlito is one of the coolest Superstars from the Ruthless Aggression era. Spitting bits off a chewed apple in his opponent’s face is why we remember him most. After a long break, Carlito was signed once again by the WWE on May 6, 2023. But with no major plans for him and no Superstar willing to feud, he is a luxury that the billion-dollar entity may want to get rid of by 2023.
SHELTON BENJAMIN
The Hurt Business, which reigned supreme from 2020–22, gave us a glimpse of what may have been with one of the most gifted yet under-promoted Superstars in modern-day Wrestling. His infamous spot where HBK superkicked him has been played out every month as a highlight of what’s In store for the fans. Brock Lesnar’s former roommate never really picked up as a Singles competitor from there, and by the looks of it, he may be sacked by 2023.
NATALYA
A lot is expected of you when the legendary Hitman is your uncle, and 41-year-old WWE Superstar Natalya knows just that. A killer back in the day, Natalya has not kept up quite well with the new roster, and with newer additions being made quarterly, Tyson Kidd’s wife may find it hard to hang in there with the younger and hungrier Superstars.
DREW MCINTYRE
As shocking as it may seem, Drew McIntyre has expressed to Triple H that he may look for Greener pastures elsewhere should he not get his chance at glory. The Scottish Warrior, reportedly after losing to Gunther, lost a lot of loyal fans back home in the UK and Europe entirely. The former Royal Rumble winner carried the company individually through COVID and now feels his momentum being stolen by the Tribal Chiref and Gunther, who have made him look like a back-up or secondary Superstar. WWE is no stranger to demanding wrestlers and may put The Former World Champion out of their roster in 2023.
