WWE has re-hired Pat Buck after being furloughed by the company this past April.

According to PWInsider, Buck has returned to the company, and is working on both RAW and SmackDown this week during the television tapings.

He was reportedly in talks with another company, but once WWE offered his role back, those talks ended.

Buck had been among those let go by the company during their cost-cutting back in April.  There had been discussions within at least one company about bringing Buck in as a Producer, but with WWE bringing him back into the fold, that talk has obviously ceased.

WWE told furloughed employees the expectation was for some to return beginning July 1. It’s unknown if any other producers have been rehired.

In April, WWE released and furloughed dozens of talent, producers and other staff.
