In a surprising turn of events, Damon Kemp, known outside the ring as Bobby Steveson, has announced his release from WWE on X today. As a fan and commentator on the wrestling scene, I believe Kemp had the potential to carve out a niche for himself within the company. While he may not have been destined for main event status, his skills and presence promised a solid, dependable performer who could elevate any match card given further development.
Kemp's release follows a broader pattern of WWE letting go of several talents recently, including his brother Gable Steveson. Gable, who has since signed with the Buffalo Bills, was another athlete with significant potential within WWE. The Steveson brothers had the athletic background and drive that could have contributed greatly to WWE's future.
Damon Kemp showed flashes of brilliance during his time in WWE as part of the Diamond Mine and No Quarter Catch Crew. His performances in NXT showcased his technical prowess and storytelling ability inside the ring. He might not have had the larger-than-life charisma of some top-tier superstars, but every successful wrestling promotion needs reliable role players—those who can consistently deliver solid matches and help build emerging talents.
Kemp's release is a reminder of the often unpredictable nature of the wrestling industry. Talents like him may not always get the spotlight they deserve, but their contributions are invaluable. It's disappointing to see his journey with WWE cut short, especially when he was beginning to find his footing.
