Why do they not respect the performers' ring names anymore? Is it just because of the age we live in?

This isn't true at all. They never fire people anymore. All those post-WrestleMania firings were years ago. It was a better look for the company to just not use them and let their contracts run out.

Baron Corbin, a mid card heel that nobody wanted Kurt to have his last match against. Kurt lost, and nobody was really happy with the match, Kurt included.

https://whatculture.com/wwe/wwe-fire-10-staff-mass-layoffs

It is when they used to do it every year after WrestleMania

Also, that Fightbox link you just gave me, about 2017, was just someone guessing who would get released. Most of them didn't.

I expect 2017 to follow the same pattern as in years past and for there to be another mass layoff coming probably sometime between now and SummerSlam. These are the heads I think are going to roll.
