Joey Styles has reportedly been released by WWE, according to Pro Wrestling Sheet. As of this writing, there’s no word yet on when he was released but the last time he tweeted was back on July 29th.
Styles did a Facebook Q&A just days before July 29th and voiced his opinions about various topics. During the Q&A, Styles stated that he was not a fan of the name of the Universal Championship and did not like that WWE has a 3-man commentary team for both RAW and SmackDown Live. It should be noted that WWE pulled the video from their YouTube and Facebook pages.
Styles was an announcer in WWE from 2005-2008 and then started working on WWE.com. Styles was promoted to Vice President of Digital Media Content.
WWE has yet to officially announce Styles’ release.
