"The Great Khali says even he wonders how Rosa is still on the roster." And I wonder why the Great Khali is still on the roster. He's a god in a country where 1/6th of the world's population lives. |

 But it's ok WWE, you haven't got to me (too much). Throw some more releases my way, I dare you I double dare you motherf***ers.  ..... Nah, I am just trying to hide my feelings right now. I cant believe we have seen the end of T Long Playa, 3MB, Tatsu, Evan Bourne's WWE run and the most epic streak in WWE history in JTGs employment (ok minus Takers...but still!!). 2014
The Year The Undertakers Streak Died
The Year JTG Was Released "Bah gawd King what have we just witnessed!..." |

Not for nuffin (TM Tazz), but how can they justify booting Aksana, who's pretty decent in the ring and keeping Rosa, who's shite and not been on TV in ages? Just because of Total f***ing Divas? Bullshite in the hugest proportion. I'm not even that huge of an Aksana fan (Dat booty though), but it's just daft. Her messing up Naomi's eye probably didn't help. Did seem like they were going for a separate story with her and Alicia but I guess they wrapped that up. |

Letting Bourne and McIntyre go was a big mistake, but they've also been around long enough that they may have wanted some time to do their own thing anyway.

The guy on Reddit who broke the JTG release news is saying Vickie Guerrero is gone. I thought her contract expired already. Wasn't there a report about her getting a degree in medical administration? Someone made a joke about Vickie doing the "Excuse Me" bit to ask for an insurance card that I found to be very funny. |

How Zack Ryder isn't gone is astonishing right now
Surely he is next right?

It's really messed up what happened to Brodus too. He had a main roster spot before they brought up Xavier. Now Xavier still has a main roster spot while literally doing NOTHING on the main roster and Brodus lost his gimmick and got released.
This says nothing of Xavier's talent. He's talented, but he's not even doing anything on the main roster. Why was he brought up? They gave Brodus the heel run for like...2 weeks? Then they did nothing with him. What did bringing up Xavier Woods from NXT actually accomplish besides getting Brodus released months later(and breaking up a tag team in Tons of Funk)? It's not like Xavier went on to have some push afterwords, he's not doing anything. He could have just stayed on NXT.

Why did he spend his time on the main roster playing a Mexican cholo? Because WWE. Was Nikita Koloff actually Russian? Don't bother looking, he wasn't. This type of stuff is a staple of professional wrestling, NOT just WWF/E. |

I thought Vickie was going to step away months ago.
Then she pops up randomly on Raws where Brad Maddox gets his ass kicked. Happened twice since WrestleMania.

I don't think any of these releases would even count as a minor mistake in the grand scheme of things for WWE. Yeah there were some talented guys that got let go, but on that bloated roster they weren't going anywhere and honestly weren't needed. I understand that people were fans of some of these guys (and gal), but I don't see any of these releases coming back to haunt them in any way. |

It's just messed up that Vickie's last appearance was in Minneapolis.

And to that I say.....YES PLEASE!!!!! Local jobbers would prevent the midcard from becoming the jobbers and the upper midcard/part time main eventers being just the midcard. You know what would prevent the midcard from becoming the jobbers? Actually using them for other things besides jobbing, or at the very least, letting them lose competitively rather than in squashes And you know what would prevent the upper midcard/part time main eventers from being just the midcard, giving them actual storylines instead of just beating the midcard guys in nothing matches. Sheamus vs. The Miz or Dolph Ziggler vs. Kane is at least good enough to headline SmackDown. |

Would "The Red Endeavouring" suffice? Because we gots to cue the music... I like to think that they brought everyone on the roster into a room, then started playing this, before endeavouring these people & dragging them out of the room. |

Random General Thought: At least it wasn't during Christmas.
Evan Bourne: No shock. Bad timing and bad decisions. Plus, Tyson Kidd is back, so...
Camacho: This one is a shame. They bitch about not getting into the Latino market, but they can't market a second generation guy who is bilingual. Also, he was finally establishing a character.
3-2 MB: Heath was saved because of his newborn (fishy that they went out of their way to announce it). This didn't come soon enough. Sidebar: So much for Dee being the "future".
Yoshi Tatsu: At least he has "international experience".
Broadus: What a waste. Another example of WWE trying to catch lightening in a bottle. They tried to capitalize on his notoriety. That didn't work. Just when they almost made a legit monster out of him, and...dancing bear...I mean Tyrannosaurus. Maybe he can become MVP's bodyguard...
Teddy: Another disappointment. You'd think he'd have some stroke in really life.
Some of these guys are getting endeavoured after relatively decent pushes or exposure. I'm not a "flaky WWE Creative booking" guy, but some of these are head-scratchers. If I were offered a semi-push as a mid-carder, I just might ask for my release.
P.S.: JTG?!? Truly, there is no God...
