"He hasn’t wrestled a match since 2020 (a one-minute loss to Bobby Lashley on Raw in November of that year), but when Titus O’Neil did an interview with TMZ last year, he wouldn’t say he was retired. WWE may have said it for him today (Sept. 22), however. O’Neil, who as far as we know is still employed by WWE as a “Global Ambassasor”, had his WWE.com profile moved to from the “Current Superstars” section to the “Alumni” one. The 49-year-old O’Neil’s status change is the latest news yours truly was scooped on by GM05 in The Feed: The other talent who quietly graduated doesn’t really tell us anything we didn’t already know. Robert Roode hasn’t wrestled since 2022. His last television match was the pre-WrestleMania 38 Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. He then wrestled five or six more house show matches for WWE before being sidelined by neck issues. Roode has become a well-thought-of producer for the company, and hasn’t show much interest in dusting off his rasslin’ boots at 50. In a 2024 chat with Chris Van Vliet, Roode said: “I feel like I’ve had a good run, as they say, and I’m happy to do what I’m doing now.” Let us know if you have any thoughts about the careers of Roode and O’Neil — in their past or current roles — in the comments below.
