WWE has not officially announced the move as of this update.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Powell&#8217;s POV:<\/strong><\/span> Clark has not wrestled a match since the December 23, 2020 edition of NXT television. He was accused of inappropriate online behavior that included grooming an underage fan, though no legal charges were filed against him. I asked Paul Levesque for updates regarding Clark&#8217;s status during a pair of NXT media calls and was essentially told that he was still under contract. Obviously, it appears as though that is no longer the case. NXT released two referees and several wrestlers on Thursday without officially announcing those moves.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-3465173265\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\" data-resource=\"show_id=3275525\" data-theme=\"light\" data-playlist=\"show\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"340px\">Listen to \"Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast\" on Spreaker.<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/widgets.js\"><\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Jason Powell, ProWrestling.net Editor&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":90574,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,4],"tags":[37,1276,1351,128,1620,101,1540],"class_list":["post-91859","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-newsticker","category-wwe_news","tag-nxt","tag-patrick-clark","tag-paul-levesque","tag-pro-wrestling","tag-velveteen-dream","tag-wwe","tag-wwe-nxt"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
