WWE's Executive Vice President of Talent Relations Dan Ventrelle was released today from WWE. He came into the company several years back and was considered a Nick Khan/Paul Levesque guy internally.
There may have been some additional departures from that area as well.
In a memo from WWE President Nick Khan to employees, it was stated that Chris Legentil (who is head of the company's Communications end, and came into the company at Khan's behest several years ago from DAZN) and Matthew Altman (who has risen from PR to the Head of Marketing over the last decade) will be working in the Talent Relations end on top of their existing duties.
The memo reads:
"WWE has begun the process of reorganizing its Talent Relations group. Moving forward, Chris Legentil, in addition to his role in Comms, will help us in leading this new group. Matt Altman, in addition to his role in Marketing, will be working closely with Chris to help in this endeavor.
Talent Development and Recruiting will now report into Shawn Michaels.
All of Talent, which includes Talent Relations, Development and Recruiting, will continue to ultimately report into Paul Levesque.
As of today, Dan Ventrelle will be moving on from WWE. We thank Dan for his tremendous contributions."
This looks to be a situation where WWE wants greater interconnectivity between the different departments. More as we confirm.
