Cameron Grimes has been released from WWE. He announced the news in a video he released on Tuesday shortly after learning the news.
After introducing himself as Trevor Lee, he delivers the news that he\'s been released from WWE and thanked everybody he worked with. It\'s been difficult being off television for a year, but he\'s spent that time honing his skills and learning everything he can from whoever he can. He plans to get back out there soon and show the fans what he can do.
The former Million Dollar Champion also told a heartfelt story involving his father, who is no longer alive. Lee says the last thing he told his father before he passed away is that he signed with WWE, which meant a lot to him then and still does today.
Support from a lifelong friend
Wrestling legend Matt Hardy replied to Trevor Lee\'s video with a supportive message for his longtime family friend. Hardy was very close with Lee\'s father Tracy Caddell, the wrestling promoter and OMEGA Wrestling co-founder who passed away in July 2018.
Hardy has known Lee his entire life and visited him in the hospital the day he was born 30 years ago. The \'Broken\' one wrote on X:
\"Trevor, I love your passion & your raw emotion. I’ve been in your life & known you since you were literally born. I am IMMENSELY proud of you. So is your father. The first release from your dream hits hard, but it ushers in a period of personal growth & mandatory change. It’s also a great time to show the world exactly who you are.\
Hardy commented Lee as, \"one of the most gifted pro wrestlers I’ve ever seen.\" He\'s got a bright future in the business because, \"It’s in your blood, in your soul.\"
