I think this is also the second or third time Grayson has been released from the company. Other than that though, you're right. I have no idea who the other wrestlers are.
The releases and TK's tweet about Bischoff last week could be a sign that AEW might be close to a new media deal, but it's less than TK is hoping for.
I don't really agree with Cornette, though. The issue with judging the roster page is that it lists both AEW guys and ROH guys interchangeably. They could probably move on from most of the Nightmare Factory dudes though.
It's a real shame that Ogogo never amounted to anything. He had all the charisma to succeed until Cody neutered him in that stupid feud they had.
