Ariya Daivari Announces That He’s Officially A Free Agent

Another free agent has officially hit the open market.

Former WWE 205 Live star Ariya Daivari has announced that his non-compete clause has expired and starting today, he’s officially a free agent. Daivari took to Twitter to make the announcement:

“Today, I’m officially a free agent. I’m looking forward to the future. New promotions, new opportunities, new fans and new goals! Thank you all for the support.”

Daivari was part of WWE’s mass roster cuts on June 25 and is now free to sign, compete and work in any other promotion. He’s already started announcing appearances, including October 7 for Championship Wrestling From Atlanta, and a Glory Pro appearance on November 7.

Just weeks following his WWE departure, Daivari spoke with WrestleZone’s Dominic DeAngelo and explained how he took his release in stride and was immediately looking forward to the future.

“It’s been cool. Everyone’s been super supportive. So many friends and people who have reached out that I didn’t think were gonna reach out and stuff like that, so it’s cool man. I’m excited for the next chapter and see what’s next. So funny enough my girlfriend said, ‘I never thought that if this day ever came that when you told me what happened that you’d sound so cool and chill about it and whatever,’ and I said, ‘Yeah, there is this internal pressure I think all wrestlers put on themselves,’ in any company, not just WWE. We put a lot of internal pressure on ourselves,” he explained, “whether it’s dieting super hard, never missing workouts, making sure you have the best matches possible in wrestling. We have a saying, ‘you’re only as good as your last match,’ so if your last match you didn’t feel like you did a good job, your next one really really matters to you. Deep down so there’s this internal pressure that you put on yourself that for the time being, gets to go away cause don’t get me wrong,” he noted, “once my 90 days is up and I’m back to work all that pressure comes back, you know, but for the next 90 days I kind of get to chill, so it was a little bit of relief.”
