Report: Matt Camp released by WWE

Matt Camp has reportedly been released by WWE. 

Camp was hired by the company in September 2019 and has served as host of shows such as The Bump, Raw Talk, and Talking Smack. He was also a regular on WWE Kickoff shows before premium live events. 

According to a report from PWInsider, Camp’s release came “as something of a shock” to those they spoke with. WWE has not made any public or internal comments on the matter, nor has an explanation for his release been given. 

Fightful is reporting that Camp was released from the company last week. 

Prior to signing with WWE, Camp was an announcer for Tommy Dreamer’s House of Hardcore promotion. He was also a fantasy football analyst for Bleacher Report and frequently appeared on Busted Open Radio. 

WWE hired Camp around the same time they brought in McKenzie Mitchell as a backstage interviewer. WWE released Mitchell back in December as well.

On her social media accounts today, Mitchell announced that she’s joined WWE as an on-air host: “DREAM COME TRUE your newest @WWE on-air host”

Mitchell was part of the Impact broadcast team as a backstage interviewer until departing the promotion this January. She wrote a farewell post to Impact at the time: “Grateful. Changed. IMPACTed. Undoubtedly the most exhilarating and exciting experience of my life thus far. Words can’t describe my appreciation for @impactwrestling and company and all that I’ve learned with this experience. To my friends, family, and fans- you guys rock and are the reason why I love doing what I do each and every day. 2019 is a year of change and I can’t wait to see what the future holds.”

House of Hardcore commentator Matt Camp also announced that he’s signed with WWE: “My first @WWE event was 2/23/92 in @TheGarden. Appropriately enough, this is my first week as an on-air host/digital talent for WWE. Thanks to everyone who supported me along the way.”

Camp is Bleacher Report’s lead fantasy football analyst and a host on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio.
