Massive Update on Top WWE Producer’s Absence from the Company and Even Royal Rumble

The WWE Royal Rumble PPV which happened last week had mixed reactions from the fans. Brock Lesnar won the Men’s Royal Rumble, whereas Ronda Rousey won the Women’s Royal Rumble. Both of them punched their ticket to WrestleMania 38. Lesnar has challenged Roman Reigns and ‘Rowdy’ will announce her decision this week on SmackDown. 

While the fans praised the Women’s Royal Rumble, Men’s did not receive any. Shane McMahon booked it, and because of this, many WWE talents and officials were upset backstage.

Recently, on the SRS Q&A podcast, Sean Ross Sapp answered the questions of the wrestling universe. One question was regarding TJ Wilson aka Tyson Kidd, who is not seen around as a WWE producer. 

Sean said, “A few weeks ago I had heard that TJ Wilson had grown frustrated. The reason I didn’t run a story on this is because I had heard conflicting things from people that work with him, that are close with him, the company itself.”

Everyone praised TJ for booking the Main Event on Day 1 of WrestleMania 37, Sasha Banks vs. Bianca Belair. The entire women’s division admires TJ, as he produces their matches well. Thus, it frustrated them when they heard that he was not going to be the producer of the Women’s Royal Rumble.

Has TJ Wilson left WWE?

While talking about the frustration of TJ Wilson has with WWE, Sean also addressed his current status.

Sean said, “However, I follow up with WWE, I follow up with people close to him and they say, ‘no, TJ is still with the company.’ A couple of weeks go by, he’s not listed on any of the internal producer’s lists.”

As Sean said, TJ Wilson is still in a contract with WWE and has no plans to leave the company soon. He is not on the producer’s list currently, however Shane McMahon, who is also not on that list, booked the Men’s Royal Rumble.

Why are WWE producers frustrated?

There were four to five people to produce one match, but as COVID hit, it took out a few people. The producers were very exhausted and overworked. They needed some break from their schedule.

There were rumors about last week’s SmackDown having a shortage of producers as half of them went for Royal Rumble. Nevertheless, TJ Wilson has not left the company. People were just bumped when they came to know about TJ not producing the Royal Rumble match.
