The Bull Johnny Stamboli, Rodney Mack, and Jazz are gone too.

Can you say, real life ''insane GM firing everybody'' angle?

Stupid fucking WWE,I hope some go to TNA.Im gonna go over the people they released...

Jazz : Not a favorite of mine,but I will not deny that she is a good wrestler,they probably let her go cause she is alittle ugly.Stupid move on WWE's part.

Gail Kim : On raw weekly,getting alot better in the ring,full of potential,and they let her go.I wonder how they will explain this on raw,being she was on this week attacking Stacy I believe.

Nidia : Doesnt really bug me,never really liked her,and not too good of a worker as of all I have seen.

Johnny Stamboli : Idiots,stupid damn idiots.The bull is awesome,why did they get rid of him?Watch now,next its gonna be Nunzio...

Rodney Mack : Alright,here im not arguing.Hasnt done nothing,and was always pretty much boring.

Chuck Palumbo : Given the right gimmick,can be great.Always liked this guy.

BIlly Gunn : See Chuck Palumbo.

A-Train : Was great on smackdown,then he got dished over to raw,and was never used.Good for him to be released,cause now maybe he can go somewhere else.

Test : Test,Test,this is a Test.Let him go while in rehab from a neck injury.Thats low...although he was offered a spot back when fully healed and he simply said 'No Thanks.' Test was awesome,and my favorite out of this bunch,WWE really fucked up here.

Yeah, I think Gail Kim was one of the only divas that could actually put on a match. She stole the four way at Bad Blood. And she was on RAW last monday, indeed, teaming up with Trish to beat on Lita. They probably wont mention her ever again, just like with Scott Steiner.
What really bothers me is that all these superstars are getting released probably for the same reason Test was- to get more contracts. Maybe they'll go to some decent OVW people...

I liked Johnny Stamboli... and there goes one of my favourite groups in the WWE, the F.B.I.... The problem is they're replacing these with the likes of Viscera, Snitsky, Luther Reigns and Tyson Tomko... I guess those news about the WWE wanting big guys even if they couldn't wrestler were for real... Maybe they'll bring back Matt Morgan and Kevin Fertig though...

wOW, 9 Wrestlers have been released during this week alone. Either the WWE is ending the Brand Extention so or we'll b seeing a shit load of newcomers they up-coming weeks. If I was working in the WWE right now. I'd be scared shitless sence thay're firing people for absolutly no reason.

According to sescoops.com, they compiled a list, and so far, 26 superstars have parted ways with the WWE just this year alone. This hopefully means, FINALLY an end to the rediculous and pointless roster split, and the begginings of a better product from the WWE.

As for some going to TNA, I can see Billy Gunn, Test and A -Train going to TNA, but I don't know about any of the others. Also, some of the 26 who've been fired or have left on their own terms, are rumored to may be back later this year or earlly next year.

What? How can you dislike the roster split? I am yet to understand.

From 9 to 10, this just in:

WWE releases Rico

That suck if the Fired Rico!!!


Rico Is a real nice guy, Ever show I went in Houston he was the only guy that sign Autographs for Everyone!!!

LOL








Sucks the WWE is releasing a lot of people tho, Gail Kim was cool and they really hyped her up.

I'm worried about my Stacy, as her boyfriend Test is gone I hope she becomes single but at the same time I hope she don't get the ax...

Lol, that was good.

Damn, how could they release Rico? He was a great superstar, and very hum.... unique. I really do wish him the best in his future endeavors, much like the WWE.

And in this whole subject topic thing... I'm sure you've all noticed the pattern. All those who've been released are either jobbers, bad wrestlers, or injured (Except Rico and Gail Kim, who didn't fit into any of those categories). But someone seems to be escaping this little insane gm angle... Garrisson Cade. He's a jobber, not exactly loved by the audience, a bad wrestler (IMO), and very much injured and out of action. Why hasn't he been released yet? I have a feeling HBK's putting him over other more deserving superstars backstage. Billy Gunn, Rico and Gail Kim were far more productive and more liked by the public. Why did they get released before Cade?

I don't know, maybe I'm getting a little paranoid with the whole HHH/HBK backstage evil politics thing, and Cade will be one of the next to be released.

People, want to start making bets? I bet until the end of the month, three more superstars will be released.


News Flash!



NoDQ.com > News > Fear Continues Backstage, 4-5 More Cuts?
Posted by Ben Johnson on 11/05/2004 at 09:46 AM

According to PWInsider.com, most of the lockerroom is extremely afraid of getting 'that call' from the WWE office, but even those who assume their job is secure are not in the best of moods as they prepare for the weekend house shows. The releases have effectively killed the already unimpressive lockerroom morale.

After reporting that two new cuts were set to be announced in the near future, there are rumors going around that the number could be as high as four or five. It is possible that the WWE cuts will extend to the developmental territory. Again, as well as anyone knows, all cuts are simply for financial reasons and not as punishments for bad behavior. Even though Billy Gunn had reportedly been having some issues, he likely would have been released regardless.


Ok, I'm going to change my call to 5 superstars by the end of the month. Garrisson Cade, S2H, Shannon Moore and Basham brothers.

I say Rodany Mack and Visacara will be cut next! They are freeing up money for Hogan and Sting to return!!

Rodney Mack has already been cut.


Anyway, I'd just like to make another comment. If we see a ''shocking'' release (as in, someone who absolutely 100% defenetely does not deserve it, and would never be released like this)), I think it'll be Chavo Guerrero or RVD.

I hoping its either Garrison Cade or the Basham Brothers. 3 of the most blandest wrestlers I've ever seen. Have you noticed that the only over wrestler on that cut list was Rico? Not sure about Gail Kim because I don't watch Raw. but all the wrestlers that has been cut were mostly heatless, Velocity/heat wrestlers that were just ring time fodders with no real direction.

If the WWE actually starts cutting people that are actually over with the crowd and is above heat/velocity jobbers than they've really lost it.

With all these cuts going around, I wouldn't be surprised with Vince just gave it all up and gave the WWE to his goldfish.

What's not to understand? It's a simple fact that it was a bad idea from the beginning. The fans have got nothing but boring storylines and the same crap from both shows week in and week out, and the talent has got nothing from it either. So let's face it, it because of all these cuts, 10 so far with either 2 or more still to come, if they ended the roster split, it might give them the financial boost they need, and the talent might get more of the opportunities that they weren't getting before or since the split. It's a smart business move and one that Vince should consider.

that blows about Rico...He was cool. Next to be released could be S2H, The Bashams, Haas (because he's not as successful as Benjamin), shannon Moore, Miss Jackie and why not make it 3 Nunzio too...no more FBI.

BTW has Paul London been released? Who are these 26 ex-superstars of the year?

Austin, Goldberg, Lesnar, Rico ,Gail Kim, Chavo Sr, Mack, Gunn, Test, Steiner, Palumbo, Stamboli....who else?

No Paul London hasn't been released...yet.

Yeah! I got my copy of SDvsRAW two days ago! Ive played it for about 2 days striaght and its awesome!!! Oh, and WWE SUcks for releasing RICO!!!! WHY NOT JBL!????

Rumors are going around that one of the next wrestlers cut will be Hurricane. Hope that's not true.

Wow, I look at that list and I'm just amazed. There is some GOOD talent. Yeah, some sucked, but damn.

WTF is WWE thinking? Are they cutting some peeps who are just unwilling to be a tool? Perhaps they have some sort of moral back bone and WWE see's that as a liability. Meh

Gail Kim gone? That...fucking....blows. I love that chick; and not because she's asian...well, maybe a little, lol. ^_^ But that korean love could work and had mad skills. She was fairly innovative, too. Rico got a pop everytime he was in the ring, so I don't know wtf is up with that.

Anywho, Angle and Puder was fucking gold. "UFC, UFC, UFC." I thought it was great. Dan was eventually worked to his back, but even then he had angle in a half-guard, lol. Too good.

BTW, Josh Mathews rep'ing the best cross body block in the WWE!! WOOOOT!!!

yeah, I was kinda impressed with that high flying move Mathews pulled off in the match. You know while watching SmackDown!, I totally forgot that Mathews was apart of the original Tough Enough. So he does have some wrestling skills.

Rico and Gail Kim were the only two that I wished stayed. Rico was pretty hillarious, a very good wrestler and was over with the crowd. and Kim was pretty hot and was a decent wrestler to.

I hope this firing spree has ended because I don't wanna see anymore talented wrestler leave.

Stamboli? Dammit!
That guy had more talent in one suplex than half the roster had put together.

Rico? Never saw too many of his matches to be honest, but from what I saw, he was entertaining. Reminded me of Savage with the crazy outfits.
Had a unique style too, which is what the WWE NEEDS at the moment so it sucks he's gone. There's just so damn many of these generic wrestlers with no real angle/gimmick/storyline booked in seemingly random matches...

I hate Carlito - but at least he has something more to him than just a guy who floats around the card with no purpose or personality.

I tell you who they can get rid of
Disagree with if you want too.


1. Gene Snitsky

2. Eugene ( i really hate this Characther)

3.Nunzio

4.Carrison Cade

5.Bashem Brothers

6.Chris Nowisky (something like that)

They Really , Really need to stop these Diva and tough enough contest!!

The Diva get 250,000 for just looking pretty, and the guys are getting 1,000,000 just for not knowing any wrestling skills!! There getting rid of a lots of good wrestlers like Rico gail kim, etc. just for these no good loser that there going to fired in like 2-3 years. Quit wasting your money on no good talent WWE!!!

How can you say that? The talent has gotten so much out of it. Eddie Guerrero became WWE champion, Bradshaw became WWE champion (if you think those two would be getting the title if they were in the same roster as HHH, HBK, Kane, Undertaker and RVD, you're quite wrong), René Dupree, Shelton Benjamin and Mark Jindrak are getting better single pushes then they were getting on their original leagues, and that's because there's more room for them. If the WWE would fuse the leagues back together, the talent would have to wait alot longer before getting their shot at superstardom.
Either that, or the angles and titles would be changing at a ludicrous pace, making it look silly.

I'm certain that Eddie Guerrero, JBL and especially Booker T are thanking god that they're not on the same roster as Triple H.

Also, I don't see how uniting the two rosters would equal better angles. Tthe writers won't get any better just because they only have one roster to work with.
