Rage?

Hey Slik, delete my thread please

I wonder if the bull guy is next...what was his name, the one with El Matadores?

Alex Riley's theme was so great

Owenbrown

They fed Riley to Nakamura and released him?

How could Vince release his own son? That bastard

Summer Rae released

Also, with the Cruiserweight Classic, how could you not have the last ever Cruiserweight champion in it.

A-Ry I kinda understand, I mean i like the guy, and the talent was there. Plus the pop he got against Miz when he turned on him was huge, However I'm beginning to wonder if that is just the case, that the Miz is actually that awesome as a heel as Sandow got the same reaction (Sandow is the good, so I don't think it was completely Miz there)

Could of atleast put Colter back with Swagger, it sucks, but I believe Swagger is close to being released as well, which makes me sad, because he has clearly improved alot since his World Heavyweight Title Run back in 2010

EL TORITO

he's gone too

Summer Rae is Fandangoing off into the sunset as well

source?

Summer Rae's released ended up being debunked ... at least for now.

Source came from a fake Joey Styles Twitter account while the others were from the legit account.

Say it to my face.

Vince: you're fired

This is turning out to be a depressing Smash Mouth Friday,,,,,

Cameron's gone.

I'm afraid to take lunch and come back to a surprising release

I think you should be fine. Not like any of these have really been a surprise.

Bye bye to Santino as well. Amazed he was still under contract.

still, no sources cited.

Seth Rollins has been released.

Just leave that page open and hit F5 once in a while. They're updating it as they go.

:)

About time for all of them. Unless Zeb is going to get moved to a creative/producer job. He's getting up there in age. Might just want to retire with his remaining backhair.

I thought Hornswoggle was released years ago. Huh.

wwe.com is a hard thing to type

Pro Wrestling Sheet about more names set to be publicly revealed by the WWE during today's cleaning.

Wade Barrett officially released today according to his Twitter account.

Ryback and Mark Henry next?

Sad to see Barrett going.

Mark has been rumored to be retiring this year so I don't see them releasing him.

Sandow's finally been put out of his misery. What a waste.

Damien Sandow is gone :(

I'm at F'n work.

Barrett and Sandow...I knew this lunch thing would be a bad idea

I felt WWE did Barrett a real disservice early in his career. First off I think he should have been a bigger deal than he was coming out of the Nexus angle, which in and of itself could have been built into a marquee Mania program rather than Cena systematically killing the group as constructed within a month of being "fired". And then after an injury they spent weeks building him up as a badass bareknuckle fighter only to make him a standard chickenshit heel within two weeks of his return.

I don't fault WWE for not doing much of importance with him the rest of his career beyond that, his body just betrayed him constantly so I couldn't blame WWE for just treading water with him after that. Great talker though.

And Sandow...man what a waste. The guy oozed charisma and wasn't a slouch in the ring. The crowd got so red hot for him as Mizdow and I think he could have springboarded from that into a regular contender for one of the midcard belts, at the worst. Barely ever using him on TV after Mizdow ended was criminal.
