5 WWE Superstars who have allegedly asked for their release

#1 Goldust

Is this veteran done with WWE?

This one may be obvious or very surprising, depending on how you look at it. It had been rumoured that Goldust had requested his release from WWE and would be heading to AEW to work alongside his brother, Cody, but it seems to be just that right now - rumour.

PWInsider.com stated today that, like with Maria Kanellis, they have not been able to substantiate the rumour that Dustin Runnels has asked for a WWE release.

Joe Peisich of Barnburner's No Holds Barred podcast had previously said Goldust may be heading to AEW after the WWE veteran had spoken of his pride at what Cody Rhodes had done outside of WWE.

Will he move to AEW? Well, Goldust is still recovering from knee surgery that he received in July, and there's no date scheduled for his return as yet. Only time will tell.
