The Bollywood Boyz has stated their reaction to their WWE release, and similar to the case of Killian Dain, it came under an unexpected setting and circumstance.
THE BOLLYWOOD BOYZ WERE AMONG A HOST OF TALENTS RELEASED BY THE COMPANY
WWE released yet another batch of talents. This time the released names included stars from NXT and its subsidiary brands. The talents released by the company till now are as follows: Fandango, Tyler Breeze, Chase Parker, Matt Martel, August Grey, Killian Dain, Tino Sabbatelli, Sunil Singh, Samir Singh, Arturo Ruas, Marina Shafir, Curt Stallion, Ariya Daivari and Tony Nese. Writer Kenice Mobley, who indulged in controversy over a podcast appearance, has also been released.
The Bollywood Boyz took to Twitter, where they stated than they were training at the WWE Performance Center when they received the news of their loss of employment. The tweet also revealed the nature of injuries they have faced during their career, including torn ACLs and dislocated shoulder. It also disclosed the fact that had wrestled their final WWE match with one of them having a shoulder out of its socket.
“All the bumps, torn ACL’s, dislocated shoulders, it’s all been worth if for the last 5 years. And how ironic, we finished our last match with a shoulder hanging out of socket
It’s fitting we got fired while showing up for wrestling training – we love what we do, with a passion,” the tweet stated.
THE BOLLYWOOD BOYZ IS A TAG TEAM CONSISTING OF REAL-LIFE BROTHERS GURV AND HARV SIHRA
The Bollywood Boyz consists of Sunil Singh and Samir Singh, real-life brothers Gurvinder and Harvinder Sihra. The duo were already wrestling for a decade when they were signed by WWE following singles appearance from both in WWE Cruiserweight Classic.
The Bollywood Boyz wrestled at NXT and the newly created 205 Live until they were repackaged as The Singh Brothers, managers and interferers for Jinder Mahal. With their help, Mahal quickly rose up the ranks to become the WWE Champion. In 2019, the trio separated, with The Singh Brothers being drafted to 205 Live, where they returned to their old Bollywood Boyz gimmick while retaining their new ring names.
The duo’s only Championship accomplishment in the company remains their multiple WWE 24×7 Championship reigns: Sunil won it four times and Samir managed to have five reigns with the title.
