According to the Wrestling Observer Simon Gotch of The Vaudevillains requested his release from WWE last week and was granted it.
While the two incidents may not be linked it should be noted that The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported that there was an incident with Gotch backstage in WWE catering before the April 4th SmackDown Live in Orlando.

Gotch reportedly tipped over his own chair and then got mad when he went over. The Observer noted that the fall was bad enough that it caused a scene.
It was also been reported by the Observer that Gotch’s personality rubbed a lot of people backstage in WWE the wrong way. Some in WWE had expected him to be cut ever since the backstage incident with Sin Cara in 2016. Which was said to be a “one-sided destruction” by Cara.
