Maxine quits WWE

[jeffreyc]

She was excellent on the mic and displayed a lot of personality on NXT. I thought she would've made a good manager.

I could legitimately see them talking her into staying then firing her the next week.

i.e. Like what they did with the Bellas and John Morrison

That's not what happened to any of them.

I think he meant kayfabe fired like the Bellas and Morrison were so that there's an on-air explanation for why she's gone.

Terry Anderson, who has worked as a seamstress and costume designer for WWE since 1989, confirmed online reports that Maxine has quit the sports entertainment organization.

Anderson joyfully teased a WWE departure Tuesday evening via Twitter, writing, "Yes yes yes ...so happy a certain person will no longer be with WWE."

She was than asked whether the person in question was Randy Orton, who is currently serving a sixty-day suspension for his second violation of the Talent Wellness Program. She responded "nope." When asked of the individual again, she responded, "No worries, no one you'll miss."

After reports surfaced online that Maxine had quit WWE, Anderson was asked if it was her. Confirming the reports, she responded, " yep."

According to PWInsider.com, Maxine quit WWE due to frustrations with "not being offered a guaranteed deal and not having the chance to prove herself on TV beyond the WWE NXT level." Her profile, however, remains on the company website and no official announcement concerning her status has been made.

Maxine, whose real name is Karlee Perez, joined WWE as a developmental wrestler in 2009. After learning the ropes in Florida Championship Wrestling, she was promoted to NXT for the Diva-exclusive third season. She returned to the program in August and became involved in a love triangle with Derek Bateman and Johnny Curtis.

How astoundingly professional of their seamstress. /sarcasm

From the sounds of that person's comments she was probably not pleasant to work with backstage, which could explain why they stuck her on NXT and despite her talent did not want to use her.

I know it isn't fair to say someone had a bad attitude until you get more proof, so don't jump down my throat, I'm just throwing it out there as a possibility. If she was difficult to work with that could explain why they were hesitant to give her a full time commitment.

Well they killed her main roster debut as Kidd's manager because of her attitude and now this report so I'd say that it isn't too far fetched to say she has one.

That said, Diva Dirt is reporting that they may either force her to honor the rest of her contract or keep her under the deal even if they don't use her.

That seamstress has been there a long time. Since 89.

Guess she just ain't a Maxine fan.

[Spankymac is sick of the swiss]

Jesus, she's been there since 89? I guess it's just one of those things you don't think about, but you'd figure there'd be a lot more turnover in a job like that for a company as big as the WWE.

[PKO]

God those seamstresses aren't very professional. They badmouthed Tensai as well.

She's witnessed a shit ton of turnover, Hulkamania, Attitude, PG, and everything in between.

The Undertaker of Seamstresses.

I think they've brought in a few others (Shannon Moore's wife is or was one and that is how they met) but once guys find someone who makes stuff they like, they tend to stick with them. I know HBK tells a story about a fan writing him and saying the Rockers gear sucked, he wrote he back asking if she thought she could do better and she sent something back that he loved so much that he got her a job with WWE and she was there for over a decade and even when he returned. Hell, might be the same lady.

it's strange how this is the same thing I focused on, in a nine page thread no less. She's been doing that for 23 YEARS?

[norsisclouds]

If the seamstress has been there for 23 years I'll take her word for it, because she has to be someone that sees a lot going on backstage, someone the company trusts to get their work done well and on time, and spends a lot of time with the wrestlers making sure everything comes together properly in front of the camera...so if she's seen a nasty attitude from Maxine, I'll believe it.

They should do a YouShoot with a former WWE seamstress actually...

Needles The Tailor wouldn't have been so unprofessional.

From her twitter:

We have come to terms on my release. Its been a ride I want to thank wwe for the experience and understanding on my feelings. Its not easy saying goodbye. But there are other options at wich I can do. To my fans you may not see me on the WWE screen but on another. I want to do nothing but get the real chance to entertain all of you…sometimes you have to make that chance for yourself!! I want to take all of you with me…so I hope you all understand why i made my decision.

[Cronant]

She wants to take me with her??

.....I've got nothing planned....
