Details Behind Why Emma Was Released By WWE, When Releases Were Decided Upon

– A new report says that Emma’s WWE release was due to her having heat with the creative team. Sports Illustrated reports that Emma had “enemies” on the writing staff that contributed to her release, a situation made worse by the way that she was vocal about her WWE status on Twitter.

The site notes that the doors “remain open” for a return to the company, though some within the locker room consider her exit a situation of “addition by subtraction.”

In addition, the outlet says that the decisions to cut Emma, Darren Young and Summer Rae were made during Vince McMahon’s budget meeting. All three were informed of the decision on Sunday, before they had to fly out for TV on Monday.
