The only one I'm sad about is Masters. Kim wanted to leave and with good reason. TBH I don't know why she re-signed, she had a good TNA/Abroad/Indy career and they made it clear they didn't value her the first time round. Melina, ignoring the Morrison situation, has done everything she could in that company and it was time for her and the company to move on. Rumours have been flying around for ages that Smith wants to try out for an MMA career and if I'm honest I saw nothing in him at all. Ok in the ring, but no charisma and even a crap look.
But Masters? That guy has busted his ass for two years, become really DAMN good in the ring was over with the crowd thanks just to jiggling his pecs and had a general charisma. It frustrates me so much that they pushed him to death when he was rubbish, but now when he's become really quite good they release him. He'd easily make a good competitor in the IC/US title division but clearly they don't value that. Hell Smackdown right now has a midcard of about 6 people, he could easily have fitted it there. Its a real shame. However, I've no doubt he'll find success in Japan and really hope he ends up there.

I liked him when he was with the company, but after watching his videos, he's a joke. He's being sarcastic, man. Chill. ;D I know. ;D |

Gail Kim said she signed because WWE offered her much more money than TNA did. She asked TNA for a raise to keep her, but they refused. |

Well then thats a damn good reason and I really hope she made her money and grew her savings. I like Kim a lot, but it was clear she was never going to be pushed in WWE. It's a sad situation, but if she made her money then left then good for her and I'm not criticising her at all. |

If Morrison asks for his release I say more power to him. His career and relationship are his business

Considering these are all raw releases, I wouldn't be surprised if they're deliberately holding off the Smackdown ones until tomorrow. Especially if some of the ones on the chopping block were on TV tonight.
My guesses:
Any diva
Brodius Clay
Heath Slater
Hornswoggle
Justin Gabriel
Matt Striker
Ted Dibiase
Trent Barretta
Tyson Kidd
Yoshi Tatsu
I also would not be surprised to find that JoMo asks for his release after Melina got fired.

If there are any more releases, my predictions are: - JTG
- Tyler Reks
- 3-4 people from FCW

Nothing of any real value has been lost yet.
I like Masters, so it sucks a bit that he's gone; but that's about it.

If I wouldn't have gotten warned I would have posted The Million Dollar Man's theme... but this will have to do... TNA extremely low balled her from all accounts. |

Kozlov is rubbish. Couldn't care less about his release. Masters has been struggling since his "Masterpiece" gimmick was ditched. Same goes for Melina since "MNM" broke up. Gail Kim needed a sleeker "Lady Deathstrike" type gimmick. Both her and Melina have been wasted in a marginalised women's division. Smith is another example of a tag team pointlessly broken up and then cast aside. I expect Kidd will follow in the next year. All part of WWE's war on tag team wrestling.
