Unexpected Release Follows Endeavor’s Acquisition of WWE
Dana Warrior, known for her association with WWE and her deep ties to the legacy of the late WWE Hall of Famer, The Ultimate Warrior, has been released from the company. This move comes as part of a significant wave of layoffs that saw over 40 employees, possibly even more than 50, parting ways with WWE.
Dana Warrior’s journey with WWE began after the passing of her husband, The Ultimate Warrior, in 2014. She played a pivotal role in the WWE Hall of Fame’s annual Warrior Award ceremony. Initially joining the WWE creative team, Dana stepped down in 2022 to focus on her role in WWE’s community outreach department, where she remained actively involved until her recent release.
PW Insider reported Dana Warrior’s departure as a surprise, especially given her longstanding association with the company. The layoffs come in the wake of Endeavor’s acquisition of WWE, marking a significant shift in the company’s operations and personnel.
While Dana Warrior’s release has caught many off guard, Ringside News has exclusively reported that the WWE creative team is expected to remain intact. However, the broader implications of these layoffs and their impact on the company’s future remain to be seen.
