Heath Slater published a video on Instagram and discussed his WWE release. Here are the highlights of what Slater said:
* WWE provided him with income, experiences, and opportunities. WWE fulfilled a dream for him and has gratitude for that.
* He talked about his fire fading after putting over numerous people but that’s on him.
* He didn’t realize how much love and support there was for him until Wednesday when he was released.
* He thanked everyone in the WWE family including the people behind the scenes.
* On July 17th (when his non-compete clause expires) he can spread his wings and fly a little bit and feel that “fire” again. He’s ready to get in legit shape and he feels hungry again and he hasn’t felt that way in a long time.
* He finished by telling fans to get ready for the encore and he’s going to come back better than he ever was. He joked about how he has to find a way to feed his damn kids in the meantime.
