Lucha House Party member Gran Metalik has reportedly asked to be released from his WWE contract. The news comes from MasLucha.com, which states the luchador wants out of his deal due to a lack of opportunities. It isn’t known if WWE will grant him his release, with his deal still having two years remaining, although they have previously allowed certain unhappy wrestlers to depart. Still, with AEW in acquisition mode, they may not want to let the competition potentially recruit the incredibly talented yet underutilized performer.
Metalik is better known in Mexico as Máscara Dorada, where he made a name for himself in CMLL before also working for New Japan. He wrestled for WWE in their Cruiserweight Classic tournament in 2016 on the recommendation of Finn Bálor and would soon sign with the promotion full-time. While he is considered one of the most talented on the roster, he has never received a sustained push and currently teams with Lince Dorado as Lucha House Party.
