In a related story, Mr. McMahon really likes the way that Bob Holly not only really works the shaft, but pays attention to the balls.


It took a lot for him to give up on them.

Test has also been released.

Not that I care about Test, but releasing someone while they are out with a work related injury is kinda low. Everyone makes fun of Bischoff for doing the same thing to Austin in WCW.

While that is true, I recall reading a while ago that Test was expected to be out of action long after his contract with WWe expired. Since, barring a medical miracle, he wasn't going to be available for a while, the company probably just decided to drop the dead weight. Shitty thing to do? Perhaps... but it's not like there's a shortage of shitty things going on in wrestling.

I thought he was supposed to be on Smackdown. Whatever, I just hope that he doesn't get used anymore. The last thing I want to see is Viscera.

*shrugs*

No Union....

I wonder why no one has seriously never tried to organize...Didn't Ventura try to? And then Vince found out and fired him?

Awful!

By the way, what happened to Tyson Tomko?? I thought he was Christians "Problem Solver". Whatd he do that was so bad to get replaced by Viscera ??



oh yeah, and with that, that was my 1000 post.

[Tenbatsuzen]

I'm guaranteeing that Snitsky and Test are the same person. Considering the move sets are the same, and massive amounts of roids changes the size of your head...

[YoungJersey]

read this: Test's Firing (http://www.lordsofpain.net/news/2004_/articles/1099511811.php)

How wrong is that? The man is laying up and they pull a dickhead move.

"Shit in one hand and put put all your hopes in the other and see which one fills up first"

[Iamnotatool]

Test rots. Vince thinks him getting hurt was his own fault due to shoddy preperation.

[WNEWstinks]

Say good buy to Gail Kim, Nidia, and Chuck Polombo also.

As Duke the dumpster Drosie would as... It's time to take out the trash!



I'M GETTING BILLY STAPLES BIG ASS CARD!!!

[Fallon]

I'm surprised about Gail and Nidia. The womens division is small enough.

I could really give a crap about either with exception to Gail being hot.

[Heather 8]

Gail? That one surprises me... especially since she got involved in the Trish-Lita feud to some extent this week. Se7en, I'll be awaiting your comments/rants/whatnot.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/RFPeachy/RFnetPeachy.jpg
Thanks WWFallon!

You can be disappointed, but you cannot walk away. This fight has just begun.

[Tenbatsuzen]

Nidia's release, I can understand. Apparently she's been rubbing people the wrong way, especially after the boob job, and the E has been on her case about losing weight.

Gail's release I am absolutely shocked at.

[WNEWstinks]

What is everyones feelings on guys lossing their WWE gigs and there not really being anywhere in the US to make any money?

TNA only runs like 5 times a month, and there full of talent to run a hour show.

I'll mark out for an Outsiders-New Age Outlaws fude!

Well, wasn't Nidia a stripper before getting into the biz?

[The Nature Boy]

They finally gave up on that Stiff Billy Gunn. About time!

RON AND FEZ-- Coming to Infinity Mornings January 1, 2006!


Bon Jovi Fan Since Day ONE!

[Freebird]

I feel a bit bad that Albert is going. Whatever else could be said, I always thought he was really trying out there to perform and give to the match and the crowd. He had some really good moments as a heel. I considered him to be a more current version of the One Man Gang....and maybe that's why I liked him.

Billy Gunn is a wrestler that seemed to be one with a good deal of in-ring ability and just lacked a real ability to connect with the crowd, save as part of the New Age Outlaws.

Gail Kim is a surprise...given her skills since she recovered from initial jitters. Nidia I liked since TE and it seemed she was learning and trying to improve in the ring.

-----------------------------
Now I'm starving

I'm about to turn it up a notch!

[Se7en]

So Gail Kim, Nidia and Chuck Palumbo are gone.

Palumbo's no big loss - at this point, he was just another low-card JTTS.

I'm not that bothered by Nidia, either......never really saw much in her. What DOES bother me about her firing, however, is that it was most certainly done to make room for some of those stupid Diva Search twats.

Gail Kim wounds me though. She's improved a lot.

[Teenweek]

Gail Kim wounds me though. She's improved a lot.



Gail Kim was actually being used with trish against Lita. That makes no sense.

[SpicyMcHaggis]

This just in, and you're not gonna believe it, MORE CUTS!

Johnny Stamboli, Jazz, and Rodney Mack are gone.

The Book of Mike (http://www.mikeythemallrat.blogspot.com)

[Gmann]

WTF is going on ? I liked Johnny the Bull, and Jazz was a legitimate worker on the ladies roster. Rodney Mack was just a waste there so that aint bad.

[WNEWstinks]

Jonny the Bull was good. I hope to see him in TNA. Notice how they are getting rid of a lot of the big guys.
The womans division is down to trish,Victoria and Molly.

only one question... Who's next?

I'M GETTING BILLY STAPLES BIG ASS CARD!!!

[Iamnotatool]

Next to be released, Undertaker, Big Slow, and Madusa.

[SpicyMcHaggis]

- Bill Goldberg
- Brock Lesnar
- Farooq
- Terri Runnels
- Stone Cold Steve Austin

[pitbull#1]

actually it seems as if there clearing financial room to make a huge signing. remember Survivor Series is coming up, and this is the event where most superstars make there debut. maybe Lesner will come back, or what about Austin & Goldberg?

http://64.177.177.182/katylina/pitbull@1sig.jpg

[SpicyMcHaggis]

If this is what you're saying it is Pitbul, I hope it's for a big name that will do something for the WWE. I've heard nothing on Lesnar coming back, but I am just really surprised to see these recent cuts happen.

Well, more fodder for TNA I guess.

Dave Meltzer reports that he has been told that TWO more cuts will be announced shortly, thus bringing the total number of releases this week to TWELVE.

Thanks WWFallon!

[WindowSill]

James Guttman of PWTorch wrote a nice little article about this... (http://www.pwtorch.com/artman/publish/article_10653.shtml)


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v89/metalsat666/JetSill.gif

I got an idea, an idea so smart my head would explode if I even began to know what I was talking about.

[Tenbatsuzen]

Should we start the WWE Death pool?

I'm guessing Nunzio and Richards.

Anyone else?



<center><img src="http://s95227862.onlinehome.us/sigs/chadsig1.jpg"></center>

[Se7en]

Losing Mack is no loss.

Losing Jazz is somewhat disappointing.....she's not a bad worker, but really they did not have anything for her to do in like forever.

Stamboli is another minor disappointment, in the sense that he actually had improved a bit.

I'm pissed about the Rico cut, though. Rico was a pretty decent worker and was actually entertaining, and I can easily name a half dozen guys from Smackdown (at LEAST) who should be cut over him.

And don't even joke about Stevie getting cut, Ten, cause I'm too afraid it could happen.

I suppose TNA will be cherrypicking from this list once their 90-day clauses are up.......assuming this PPV doesn't bankrupt them befor that.

Jazz was probably let go because Mack was.

Val and Rosey would be my guesses and I hope it's not Stevie.

Who I think is next? I don't even want to say it.

[Teenweek]

I think this list of cuts doing a ppv would get a better buyrate than tna's victory road

[SpicyMcHaggis]

I hope and pray that this isn't the end of StevieCorp.

Don't count on him, ESPN reported earlier tonight that he will likely be named to the Vikings practice squad this week or next.

DONT you worry your pretty little heads.
billy gunn will blow someone backstage and will be back in 6 months .. watch.. hes one of vinces little bitches...

[SpicyMcHaggis]

That's gonna be hard, apparently TNA just signed Billy Gunn. He's going to have to be under a different name since WWE owns the rights to the name "Billy Gunn".

I can't believe that you people still expect the Fed to make sense. Vince hates Cruiserweights and women so he's gonna phase them out as much as possible. To him they're non entities who serve only as show filler. Women are no more than eye candy and cruisers are spot machines and under NO CIRCUMSTANCES are they EVER to steal the spotlight from his hosses. Your WWE Cruiserweight division: Rey Mysterio, Chavo Guererro, Billy Kidman, Spike Dudley, Your WWE women's divisionL Trish Stratus, Victoria, Lita, Molly. Enjoy every bit of it that they let you have.

...and I got my wish.

WWE releases Miles
Linda Miles, who competed as Shaniqua on SmackDown!, was released by WWE. The company wishes her luck with all of her future endeavors.
