It’s been an unfortunate day for the household of Riddick Moss and Emma, as the recently engaged couple were both let go by WWE as part of a wave of talent releases hitting the company post-merger. But Moss is at least trying to stay positive, taking to X (formerly known as Twitter) after the news broke to indicate that his wrestling career is far from over.

“Well I did it – I graduated from WWE,” Moss tweeted. “I know a lot of people think my career really took a downturn once Mr. Levesque took over, but, in actuality, my per-match fee skyrocketed through the roof. Other promoters, get ready to back the brinks truck up.”

A former college football player for the University of Minnesota, Moss joined WWE in 2014 after attending a tryout. He would spend the next six years in “WWE NXT,” largely in a team with Tino Sabbatelli as God Gifted Athletes, before being called up to the main roster in January 2020. Moss would find limited success after his call-up, winning the 2022 Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal and the WWE 24/7 title on one occasion. He last appeared on WWE TV in May, taking part in a #1 Contendership match for the Intercontinental Title on “WWE Raw.”
