Gerald Brisco's time in WWE has seemingly come to an end in an official capacity.
Brisco was furloughed by WWE in April as part of the company-wide cutbacks due to the COVID pandemic, and while some furloughed talent has started to return, Brisco will not be one of them. He took to social media on Thursday morning to inform fans that he was told by Vince McMahon that he is no longer needed, but he will continue to be around to help talent.
Ok, want to get this out the right way. Last night I received a call from @wwe Chairman Of The board @VinceMcMahon to let me know after 36 years of dedication to @wwe i an no longer needed. I’m ok withthis. I will still be around to help talent. More info will follow. Thanks

Brisco had been with WWE since 1984 and was best known by most fans for his time as one for Vince McMahon's stooges during the Attitude Era.
Brisco would go on to become a talent scout for WWE where he discovered Brock Lesnar and more amateur wrestlers who have been signed by WWE. Brisco appeared on the July 22, 2019 episode of Raw, where he won the WWE 24/7 Title by pinning his fellow stooge Pat Patterson.
Fightful will update fans on the story as more information comes out.
