Im shocked by Mickie's release, b ut her being late for the bus in Europe a few times is kinda lame for a reason to fire her. Hope she has some success as a singer, and maybe even hope to hear Tenay screaming "WHAT IS MICKIE JAMES DOING IN THE IMPACT ZONE?" I actually see the WWE's point if this is true. This week was a hectic travel week for both rosters. Time was of the essence in all coach journeys made. Mickie taking her time means the bus is set back which is aggravating for both the driver and surely the rest of the wrestlers who had already had a rough week. |

He still is. WWE doesn't have that trademarked.  But seriously, is that the guy who was Jesse? I honestly have no idea who Slam Master J is. Yes. Another gifted wrestler who was barely used. |

I'm sure TNA will pick up a few of these guys, but since their booking is so idiotic it won't make a lick of difference.
Although it would be awesome if one of 'em made a quickie appearance at KOT.

Don't worry, even Slam Master J doesn't know who Slam Master J is. ;D He saw himself on TV once and was like "Is that Tyler Reks?" Seriously though, Slam Master J was Jesse. I always liked him, but I didn't see him lasting long once Jesse & Festus were broken up. |

And something else...... I think that Haas probably got Shelton released with all that ranting and raving he did with that interview. That and his contract was about to expire. True. But Haas still should have fallen back with that interview. |

I still think James capitalized Victory in her twitter status as a hint of going to TNA. Victory Road is in three months.

sucks for people not having a job, but I'm not really going to notice any of those people are gone. couldn't it be this was actually her fault? Sure. And it can still also be that WWE has downright antediluvian methods of disciplining its employees. Well, if you consider the situation - you're on a tour, you're travelling together, and one person is continually late and holding everybody else up. Now considering the situation with the volcano, and how long they had to spend on coaches, away from home, and pretty much stranded - people are going to be very pissed off. Also, considering they had to cancel shows, and travel to a completely different country in order to try and get back home, on a very tight schedule, not knowing if the airport will still be open when you get there, and one person is still turning up late, threatening the chances of everyone getting back home, and even jeapordising the TV taping shows, and yeah, I can understand someone who has previously had problems getting fired over that. No he doesn't - contract was about to expire anyway. He was still released. As long as you leave the company BEFORE your contract is up, you have to wait the 90 days/ Tazz wasn't released - his contract expired, and he had to wait 90 days. I am not a legal expert, but there is no way that can be true. If someone's contract expires on the 30th, and they were released on the 29th, why would the three month ban still be in effect? The WWE would be paying that person for 90 days after their contract expired in that scenario. Doesn't make any sense. If you agree to sign a contract with a "90 day no-compete clause" even if it expires, then you're bound to it, because you've signed it. And considering the WWE tends to have the upper hand in most contract negotiations, most talent can't afford to turn it down. |

If Gallows wasn't in the SES doghouse right now, he could have CM Punk cut a promo saying how he got Slam Masta J fired after exposing his den of illegal narcotics that he used to keep Festus in a medicated haze.

I have a feeling RAW on Monday in Richmond will have a lot of "We Want Mickie" chants - good luck trying to edit those out, Vince. Now this is delusional. She isn't John Cena. 1/2 of the audience won't even know she is released. The half that does give a pop about 3 seconds long and then dies completely out. Vince won't be able to edit out a chant that won't exist. 1) Mickie's face turn happened in Richmond without her actually doing anything but getting a home town pop (the previous week she won a number 1 contender match to face Lita, but she won as a heel) 2) Matt Freaking Hardy had had week after week of people chanting "We Want Matt". Any other week, and you might be right, but in Richmond, Mickie gets great reactions. |

Tazz wasn't released - his contract expired, and he had to wait 90 days. Different situation there as Taz had an announcers contract and one with WWE, where are wrestling talent don't. |

Lame Shelton is one of my favorites. Well hopefully he gets a good push in tna That would've been a gimmick to get him over! Have him constantly limping his way to victory. He would've been the role model for stubbed toes everywhere! |

Any other week, and you might be right, but in Richmond, Mickie gets great reactions. YOu're gonna compare Mickie James to Matt Hardy !?! At that time Matt had 10 times the fans that Mickie does. And while Mickie does get hometown pops, they aren't anywhere near what poeple are making them out to be. Let's be honest. You may barely hear a "We want Mickie" chant at best. But, it's beyond delusional to think she would get a chant loud enough that Vince would actually consider editing it out. |

Shleton Benjamin will go to TNA and still be uncharismatic. Mickie's not a big shocker because of the music thing and a multiheat offender lol.

Oh hell......I would mark out huge for a Christopher Daniels v Shelton match seeing as Christopher Daniels is probably my fave wrestler and Shelton is in my top 15. |

This is by far the most shocking set of releases ever. HOLY f*** is all I can say.
