List of former WWE personnel (S–Z)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

WWE is an entertainment company based in Stamford, Connecticut that is primarily involved in the business of professional wrestling[1] Former employees (family name letters S–Z) in WWE consist of professional wrestlers, managers, play-by-play and color commentators, announcers, interviewers, referees, trainers, script writers, executives, and board of directors.

WWE talents' contracts range from developmental contracts to multi-year deals.[2] They primarily appeared on WWE television programming, pay-per-views, and live events, and talent with developmental contracts appeared at NXT (formerly Florida Championship Wrestling), or they appeared at WWE's former training facilities: Deep South Wrestling, Heartland Wrestling Association, International Wrestling Association, Memphis Championship Wrestling, or Ohio Valley Wrestling. When talent is released of their contract, it could be for a budget cut, the individual asking for their release, for personal reasons, time off from an injury, or retirement. In some cases, talent has died while they were contracted, such as Owen Hart, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, and Bray Wyatt.

Those who made appearances without a contract and those who were previously released but are currently employed by WWE are not included.
