With these new releases and I'm assuming more on the way probibly Venis, Holly, among others why do you think Boogeyman still around? He hasnt been on TV since last Christmas I think when he made an appearance and hasnt wrestled since before Halloween. I mean Harris had a match last tuesday, Moore had a match on friday, what's with these releases when Boogey and Elijah Burke are still there?

Venis and Holly are fine. Burk and Boogey...good question. To be fair to The Boogeyman is still selling a respectable amount fo merch though...
Anybody Thrilla

You think Burke should be released Destor?

How can you compare a mediocre talent like Harris with a brilliant wrestler like Boogeyman?

The Boogeyman is a sack of crap and should have been released BEFORE he was hired, now that wouldve been a smart choice, saved some money.
As for Chris Harris, he should never been signed, I mean if TNA doesn't want someone, then its obvious they are the pits because TNA is the pits already.
I dont think WWE will ever release Val Venis or Hardcore Holly, I think these guys have made positions in the WWE were they are respected veterans and have office positions too, especially Val Venis. As for Burke, he is pretty talented so I dont see WWE releasing him. I think he might be saved to pair him up with R-Truth which could be a team of the year.

Well WWE makes mistakes, so theoretically they could, but I doubt it. And what are u lolling about, if WWE released all the talented guys they would be in the pits and would have lost to WCW in the war but they didnt. Why? They kept most of the talent and treated it right.
Also I didnt know Harris quit TNA, makes him even more dumb. I think he probably thought TNA would give him more money but hey!
Also Snitsky is another guy I am shocked is still around, he has no value to the WWE.

I'm loling because you think being talented has ever kept someone from getting canned. WOuld you like a list of talented people they've let go? It would be hundreds of wrestlers long.

When they let go a talented person, it is an exception not the rule. The rule is generally, they let go of the junk.
Look at this list, there is no talent here. Big FAT V? Shannon Moore? Domino? All guys who shouldnt have been signed in the first place!
Usually WWE release those who can't cut the mustard or for things like bad attitude.

I've always like Shannon Moore. :$
I've wrestled on the same show as him before, and this guy can go in the ring.
Unfortunately he'll always be held down by his gay/girly looks.

You could start with Kurt Angle...
yeah, there were reasons behind it, but lack of talent certainly wasn't one of them.
In fact, Destor can knock Sebastian out of the park with just that one name. In 2005, WWE released arguably the best wrestler in the business.

Angle? Yeah, I think there may have been extenuating circumstances, there. I mean, this was a guy who was fucked up on drugs, whose personal life was ruined, and who was looking kinda unhealthy for an active competitor. Let's not pretend it's a bad idea to release a guy like that so close to the death of Eddie Guerrero.

I know that, my point exactly. This was in response to the entire "why would WWE release talented guys" argument.

I guess my question would be "Why would WWE cling to untalented guys?"

I don't think black people feel any obligation to a bird-walking cartoon witchdoctor. In fact, I'm sure it'd be considered an acceptible apology to people concerned with skin color if he was fired.

Whoa, foreshadowing. I like it.
Seriously, though, I can see Holly going. Mainly because it would have made sense for him to go barking around Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase after losing the World Tag Team Championship, but didn't.
As for talented guys the WWE has released:
-Charlie Haas
-Shantelle Taylor
-Gail Kim
-Nick Dinsmore
-Doug Basham
-Rob Conway
-Damaja
-Matt Morgan
-Nunzio
-2 Cold Scorpio
-D'Lo Brown
-Christopher Daniels
-Angel Williams
-Jimmy Wang Yang
-Scotty 2 Hotty
-Paul Heyman
-Perry Saturn
-Brent Albright
And that's just naming a few.

I can see Hacksaw Jim Duggan losing his active wrestler contract, or whatever keeps him showing up. The Boogeyman should be cut. I could also see Snitsky being a "big release" the WWE makes, even if we don't think it's so. I wonder why the WWE would keep Josh Mathews under contract if they never plan to use him, so Mathews getting the chop to cut costs is believable. I don't see why they would keep Mick Foley around if both sides were having trouble, too.
Kenny Dykstra is talented, but has heat on him apparently. Paul London is someone the WWE has never really liked, but keeps around because he is good. Charlie Haas has been released before, and is apparently a bit of a joke according to the writers and Vince McMahon, so I could see him getting cut. And there is one question I have to ask: How the fuck have The Highlanders survived so long?

Other than listing Matt Morgan as talented, that list is about dead-on.

Fine, but then wouldn't you be arguing, you know, a pretty large exception?
Well, actually, considering Angle, Eddie, and Benoit were all Heavyweight champs, maybe not.
...Too soon?

I'd say Boogeyman is about as high in my book as Ric Flair.

Uh... Nash is.
Unless Taker goes to bat for him, Holly will need boots for walking soon.

Boogeyman while isn't really that great of a wrestler does his job.
He goes so over the top with a character, that people get behind it, despite how stupid it may be.
Made me a fan, and outside of agreeing, Kevin Nash is the greatest promo man in the business, it's the only thing me and BDC will ever agree on.
