Matt Camp’s exit from WWE was part of cost-cutting measures by the company, the broadcaster revealed this week.

Camp parted ways with WWE in February of this year after previously serving as the host of RAW Talk, Talking Smack, and The Bump.

On a recent video from his “The Wrestling Matt” YouTube channel, Camp shared the circumstances behind his release. He said,

“I don't work for WWE anymore; I haven't since early February. I don't think I've said this before, so I'll say it now. I was told by Michael Cole when it happened. He wasn't the one who let me go; it was an HR representative. I was told it had nothing to do with anything I did. It was a cost-cutting measure, or whatever you want to call it, tightening the budget. I reached out to Michael Cole and said, 'Hey, anything you could tell me?' He was basically, 'Oh, okay, I guess you heard, blah blah blah.' There were more changes coming to the team. I think Mackenzie had been let go a little before that, and Kevin Patrick would move on after that, which I know was planned."

McKenzie Mitchell was released from WWE in late 2023 while Kevin Patrick was released in 2024 after being pulled from his role as SmackDown’s lead announcer.
