Okay, so you know how everyone’s always buzzing about WWE releases? I got curious and decided to dig into the 2024 list myself. Figured I’d share how I went about it.

First off, I started with a simple Google search: “wwe releases 2024”. Basic, right? I just wanted to see what was already out there. I scanned through a bunch of those wrestling news sites – you know, the usual suspects. I made sure to visit a few different sites. You can’t trust just one source, gotta compare notes and avoid the fake news!
Then, I started compiling a list in a simple text file. Name, date of release – the basics. I added a column for “Source” so I could keep track of where I got each piece of info. This helped me double-check later on. I copied the relevant information from the sites, nothing fancy, just plain text.
Next up, the fun part: cross-referencing. I went back to each source and checked if they agreed on the release dates and other details. Sometimes there were discrepancies – one site might say “early January” while another had a specific date. In those cases, I dug a little deeper, searching for more reliable sources or official announcements.
After the initial list was solid, I started looking for patterns. Were there any common reasons given for the releases? Contract expirations? Budget cuts? Creative differences? I added a “Notes” column to my list and jotted down anything interesting I found. I could notice similar reasons from the releases.
I also took a peek at social media. Wrestlers sometimes announce their own releases or comment on them. I checked their Twitter (or X, whatever it’s called now) and Instagram accounts for any clues or confirmations. Also, I check other wrestling fans’ comments to get more clues.

Finally, I organized the list by release date and put it into a simple HTML format. Nothing too fancy, just something easy to read. I used for the list and to highlight the wrestler’s name.
