[Mr Amazing]

benjamin and mickie will be in tna after the 90 day no compete clause expires

[CSL]

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH MICKIE JAMES [/the internet]

[Loose Cannon]

I care

[mike adamle]

I'm kind of shocked about Shelton and even more surprised about Mickie. I mean, she was involved in a major diva's angle for the last few months, crazy.

[kareru]

mickie james WTF

[KayfabeMan]

Geez.

TNA's locker room is gonna be crowded now.

[KayfabeMan]

I'd love to see Mickie in TNA though, she will definitely be able to have some solid bouts there. Just sorry that we won't see her vs. Awesome Kong :drool:

[Xero]

mickie james WTF

From what I've heard she had a lot of heat on the tour for being late getting on busses, etc. Other than that I can't see much of anything. Unless it's Vince adding on her weight gain and shit like that and it's a last straw type of deal.

[Xero]

Honestly, my biggest surprise here is Funaki. I thought he was pretty well in with the company, a job for life. I know he did some stuff for WWE in Japan.

[Mr Amazing]

now tna's knockout division ,x division is going to get better,and if they get chalie haas they got a better tag team division as well

[kareru]

getting rid of the most over diva, it must have been something pretty serious, om assuming it was wwe hat fired her and her not asking for a release

[Xero]

I'd love to see Mickie in TNA. She'll probably try the music thing for a while before going in, though.

[Lock Jaw]

Sorry about Mickie James and Shelton Benjamin.

TPWW's The Gold Standard is gonna be devastated when he reads the news.

The rest were to be expected. Though Funaki was "to be expected" for a very long time. Kudos for him for staying around as long as he did.

[KayfabeMan]

Not a big fan of either of the guys, but I think Haas and Benjamin would be a great addition to TNA's tag team roster.

[NeanderCarl]

Shelton Benjamin is a much bigger surprise than Mickie James. TNA would be crazy not to snap him up.

[CWK]

That was a huge mistake getting rid of Mickie James and Shelton Benjamin.

[Xero]

Team Angle reunion? Bring in Haas and you could do something with them and Angle.

[Lock Jaw]

Funaki is probably gonna go to TNA and instantly get the X-Division title.

[Xero]

Funaki - TNA NUMBA WON X DIVISION WRESTLER!

[XL]

My jaw literally dropped for about 30 seconds when I saw Benjamin's name.

[Xero]

From Figure Four Weekly, on Mickie:

James was released because she more than once on the European tour arrived late for the bus, holding up travel. That was considered the straw that broke the camel's back dating back to her being disciplined by being sent to Smackdown.

[XCaliber]

Shelton Benajmin? Really? ...REALLY?

[Lock Jaw]

From Figure Four Weekly, on Mickie:

James was released because she more than once on the European tour arrived late for the bus, holding up travel. That was considered the straw that broke the camel's back dating back to her being disciplined by being sent to Smackdown.


I like how being sent to Smackdown is a punishment.

[KIRA]

Noooo shelton!


Hopefully TNA is cracking that piggy bank for him now if they only get Hass

I missed Mickie in TNA the first time I'm egar to watch this time around


Katie Lea another actual wrestler among the divas :nono:

[screech]

TPWW's The Gold Standard is gonna be devastated when he reads the news.

He is pretty torn up about it.

[Nicky Fives]

Wickedly shocked about Shelton..... the others are not much of a surprise..... I can't see any of them in TNA except for Yang.....

[kareru]

pwi has a different story

Source: PWInsider

Add Mickie James to the list of those fired by WWE today. They were not happy with her music career and there we some weight issues.

More shortly.

[Inadequacy]

Not impressed with Benjamin being released

[Favre4Ever]

I guess maybe all the fat jokes were for real.

[Fignuts]

Good. Rather see Shelton and Mickie in TNA.

[Rollermacka]

I'd love to see Mickie in TNA though, she will definitely be able to have some solid bouts there. Just sorry that we won't see her vs. Awesome Kong :drool:

I was trying to make what you said into a lesbian joke but it just came off sounding like a fat joke and I'm WAYYY to mature for that :shifty:

Anyways, I'm not suprised that Shelton got released, just kinda dissapointed. I'm pretty sure down the line there gonna give the "Paul Burchil" excuse for why they released him (He's talented in the ring and has good mike skills... but he doesnt appeal to 12 year olds so he's gone) :nono:

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Yeah definitely a good thing for Mickie and Shelton. Like half of TNA's gimmick matches seem like they were designed with Shelton in mind.

[jskinnyg]

Of all the firings, I am surprised at Mickie James and Shelton Benjamin being gone... Especially Shelton...

Mickie does not have weight issues for God's sake... And I am sure she is pissed...

Benjamin though? Also consistently shitty on the mic... One of the best in ring performers of the last 10 years... Guess they thought they had done the best they could... TNA here they come...

[Lock Jaw]

I guess they decided they have a new Shelton Benjamin in Kofi Kingston, so why bother keeping the old outdated model?

[Lock Jaw]

Good thing there already isn't a thread about this.

[Xero]

I'm betting Primo's getting let go if this is a big Spring Cleaning (this is happening just before the first quarter's numbers are coming out, as it usually does). I'd say Carlito too but he's on NXT.

[screech]

Surprised Primo wasn't in the first round of cuts.

[.44 Magdalene]

I'm... a little pissed.

[Xero]

I could see the following:

Primo
Zeke - Unless they're going to keep him until he's healed then future endeavor him. Can't see him staying around.
Mike Knox
Curt Hawkins
Abe Washington
Chris Masters
Chavo

[erickman]

Team Angle reunion? Bring in Haas and you could do something with them and Angle.

yeah angle is taking time off now, have the 3 of them come in in 3 months an take out team flair.

[Ruien]

Ya, lets not rehash anything from WWE in TNA.

[VSG]

Holy shit! They deleted Mickie's WWE Universe page as well.. Sadists!

[kareru]

i want to see mickie in tna purely so her and velvet sky can have an 'ass' off

[TannerLittleton]

WWE have fired 5 great talents. I can't beleive they fired Shelton,Katie,Mickie and Yang but kept people like Mike Knox,Kelly,Alica and Hornswoggle

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Watch Mickie gain 30 lbs during her no compete lull.

[ClockShot]

No surprise about Mickie. Heard she had a music career lined up and that caused her to get the boot. Didn't think it would be tardy getting on the bus.

Shelton Benjamin surprised me. Guy got the talent, he'll probably end up in TNA after the 90 days.

Don't care about anyone else. Katie Lea never did much with/without Burchill.

[thedamndest]

Shelton's firing means if nothing else Justin Gabriel will spend the next five years in Money in the Bank matches.

[DLVH84]

Micke James and Shoichi Funaki being released, shocked me the most.

Funaki, because he's been with them for 12 years, and he has been a consistent help, putting over talent.

Mickie's release was just unfair. Moving to SmackDown! as a punishment? Come on. I watched SmackDown! more than RAW, because they have better wrestling (thank you Michael Hayes). And the supposed "weight issues?" I don't see signs of weight gain, if any. To me, the only meaningful reason behind her release is the whole missing the bus deal.

[The Pope]

Shelton Benjamin vs AJ Styles vs RVD

[XIII]

My jaw literally dropped for about 30 seconds when I saw Benjamin's name.

i know,.... i cant fuckin believe they got rid of shelton.... horse shit!!!!

i thought he would eventually be main event, maybe champ one day....

[mike adamle]

I guess they should call Jack Swagger the new gold standard :shifty:

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah, Shelton and Funaki were the only two that surprised me. I never viewed Shelton as a World Champ or anything, but a guy that can always put on a good match. Funaki obviously wasn't doing anything but I figured he'd transition right into an agent role.

Interesting that these moves happen right before the draft. I still don't know how they plan on doing a full 3-hour draft AND a Supplemental Draft on Wednesday with just two rosters. They may wind up flipping nearly everybody but Cena and Triple H.</font>

[Ermaximus]

Shelton's firing means if nothing else Justin Gabriel will spend the next five years in Money in the Bank matches.

No, that role will go to either Evan Bourne or Kofi.

[blak23]

i had shelton slated for a bob holly type career but less dickish he couldve been a guy to give cred to titles and can easily put over younger guys i think they ma d a HUGE mistake here

[Perry Saturn]

i was shocked to see shelton because even when he didnt have angle he was still a good wrestler

[Volare]

Shelton and Mickie....wow.

[Wishbone]

Jesus fucking Christ I can't believe this!!!!! I hope Vince and the entire WWE writing staff get cancer and die a slow and extremely painful death and yes I am completely serious about that! WWE just keeps screwing up their product more and more I mean Micky, Katie Lea, and Shelton?! WTF where they thinking?!?!?! They fire them and keep people like Eve, Layla, Santino, and Hornswoggle?!?!?!?! I pray to god and every other riligious figure that TNA picks them up and crushes WWE into fucking oblivion!!!! Fucking cocksuckers! AAAHHHHH!!!!!

[Xero]

Wishbone just went Jim Cornette on the WWE writing team and Vince (McMahon).

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Don't get what Shelton fans are upset about. This is the best thing that could've happened to him.

He obviously wasn't going anywhere, and he got more than enough chances. A change of scenary will do him good.

[The Franchise]

Jesus fucking Christ I can't believe this!!!!! I hope Vince and the entire WWE writing staff get cancer and die a slow and extremely painful death and yes I am completely serious about that!

Took the words right out of my mouth!

[The Franchise]

Don't get what Shelton fans are upset about. This is the best thing that could've happened to him.

He obviously wasn't going anywhere, and he got more than enough chances. A change of scenary will do him good.

This is correct. Shelton hasn't done anything remotely memorable since that match with HBK in like 2005.

[Xero]

From Jimmy Yang's Twitter:

"Three strikes and your out...I hear Florida is a nice place to visit."

Wellness? TNA? Or stirring the pot?

[VSG]

He can go to Black Diamond Wrestling and tag with Dan "The Breadman" Sandwich for all I care! Never liked the japanese redneck gimmick..

[The Franchise]

Mickie is far more surprising than Shelton. But the WWE's fatal mistake is giving TNA the opportunity to snatch up Slam Master J.

[Xero]

How is Mickie more surprising? I haven't heard a bad thing about Shelton, he just isn't used. Mickie has been getting heat for at least six months.

[The Franchise]

Really? Did not know that. I'm just going by what I see on TV and usually Mickie is being used more than Shelton. It seems like the only reason they have kept Shelton for the last few years is the MITB match

[TheAdamEvansFan]

Mickey James will go to TNA in 90 days. She will prolly make limited appearances as she does her music deal also.. BUT staying on live tv will help her music career so don't expect her to stay away for any longer than 90 days lol.. Not to mention when the Divas in TNA are the highest rating getters. She will prolly lose weight n join the beautiful people.

[dronepool]

Mickie and Shelton? Why them?

Boo!

At least Mickie can join TNA and be more sexual than on WWE.

[Mr Amazing]

shelton vs aj ultimate x would be a amazing match

[RGWhat316]

Mickie and Shelton! Unbelievable. I am most pissed off about these 2. I was a fan of Katie Lea, but considering she is female, and can actually wrestle, should have known she would be fired. And I knew it wasnt long after Paul got released she would be released as well.

[Dorkchop]

WWE should have kept Mickie and Shelton.

The way WWE were treating Mickie, I'm not surprised. I figured they were cutting her soon. But Shelton? I know he wasn't a main eventer, but he was a solid mid carder. I know in WWE world you are either a main eventer, going to be a main eventer, or a jobber who's on their way out. Sad.

[The Gold Standard]

I am very upset about Shelton being released, but as Supreme said, this is the best thing that could have happened. He will now go to TNA after his 90 day clause is up and he will be a main part of the X-Division and have great matches with everyone.

[VSG]

I still won't watch TNA, even with Shelton in there. But Mickie James vs Hamada? That's another thing..

[DLVH84]

I still won't watch TNA, even with Shelton in there. But Mickie James vs Hamada? That's another thing..

I'd definitely watch Mickie James vs. Ayako Hamada. I like seeing some Joshi Puroresu influence in that match.

[TheAdamEvansFan]

If TNA builds more factions and uses these WWE wrestlers to hype the TNA wrestlers n put them over, then TNA will increase its fan base.. LIKE how Flair n HOGAN are putting over the younger talent now as managers.. I'll watch TNA from 7 to 8 pm then I'll tivo the rest while I watch RAW.

[Fignuts]

Ya, lets not rehash anything from WWE in TNA.

Normally I'd agree, but a team angle reunion would be awesome.

Regarding Mickie James’ shocking release today from WWE, she was fired because she more than once on the European tour arrived late for the bus, holding up travel.

That was considered the straw that broke the camel’s back dating back to her being disciplined by being sent to SmackDown! due to substandard performances and issues with her weight. They were also not happy with her music aspirations. Maria felt the same wrath with her release from WWE. WWE management doesn’t take kindly to their talent doing outside projects while working a full-time WWE schedule.

According to a source, she had just beaten a bad staph infection and was lucky to return in time for Wrestlemania. Many felt she should have been more professional in her dealings with WWE.

[Xero]

WWE to Talent: Unless we're directly involved with your outside projects and get a cut, you're fired.

[Executioner]

Mike Knox is gone now.

http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/knoxreleased

[Xero]

Yup.

From WWE.com:

WWE has come to terms on the release of Mike Knox as of today, April 22, 2010. We wish him the best in all future endeavors.

[Lock Jaw]

Yup.

From WWE.com:

WWE has come to terms on the release of Mike Knox as of today, April 22, 2010. We wish him the beard in all future endeavors.

[kareru]

oh dear, i liked knox too

i feel we have a few more names coming

[Xero]

The Beard.

:'(

[Innovator]

TIME OUT

Is the beard still employed?

[BillyBonez]

I dont think WWE gonna release any more people, they will stop at 7 because they wont announce anything in more than one day.

[Lock Jaw]

Too bad Mike Knox never got the opportunity to turn face. He could have been an awesome tag partner for John Morrison. They'd enter in slow-mo with Morrison's hair and Knox's beard flowing in the wind.

[Xero]

I dont think WWE gonna release any more people, they will stop at 7 because they wont announce anything in more than one day.

There have been years (when the Dudleys were released for sure) where it lasted a whole week, with new releases coming every day.

[Testicle]

Kinda surprised Shelton got the axe before Hass.

[Obi-Wan Prime]

So Now Raw Brand has 37 stars and Smackdown has 38 stars after the 7 released today.. i think we can expect at least 4 more to go.

[Xero]

Haas was released in February.

[jerichoholicninja]

Won't miss any one of the releases so far except Shelton.

[erickman]

Haas was released in February.

i wonder if wwe will re hire haas to keep him from taging with shelton in tna.

[glanville6]

I'm with those who aren't shocked about Shelton Benjamin. He wasn't in any programs, hasn't been in one since he faced Christian in a TLC match in December, and he jobs every year at Wrestlemania, which is fine because he makes the MITB match better. But the dude is barely on 2 PPV a year. He's been under utilized for years...as good as he is, he wasn't going to go anywhere with WWE.

Just hoping another "gold"en one isn't gone soon...

[James Steele]

Wow, I am legit shocked at Shelton and especially Mickie James.

[Skippord]

Mike Knox's beard will be staying on as a road agent

[DAMN iNATOR]

There have been years (when the Dudleys were released for sure) where it lasted a whole week, with new releases coming every day.

Yeah, back in 2005. If memory serves correctly and I'm not just exaggerating, I think there was at least a dozen if not more fired from WWE during that week.

Still kinda shocked about Mickie and Shelton, the others I didn't really care about all that much.

[tjmidnight420]

Shelton and Mickie.

[The Show Off]

World's Greatest Tag Team v. Kings of Wrestling at ROH book it!

[Poit]

I'm with those who aren't shocked about Shelton Benjamin. He wasn't in any programs, hasn't been in one since he faced Christian in a TLC match in December

Wait, what about his feud with Vance Archer?

[Poit]

Too bad Mike Knox never got the opportunity to turn face. He could have been an awesome tag partner for John Morrison. They'd enter in slow-mo with Morrison's hair and Knox's beard flowing in the wind.

That would have been amazing.

[CSL]

Shame Mike Knox is gone, legit nice guy

[KIRA]

TNA is gonna need another show with the influx of wrestlers they will inevitably be getting

[tjmidnight420]

Nah they'll just book shorter matches and involve more people in them.

[Lock Jaw]

Don't forget there are always some releases after the draft when someone gets drafted to a new show and the writers of the show go "Za, What? We don't know what to do with this guy" and then they get released before ever appearing on the new brand.

[kareru]

i wonder if dixie carter does a courtesan line up of the fired wrestlers

"i'll have you, you and you, now the rest of you go away"

[KIRA]

WWE freeing up room for NXT jobbers like black cena and that ginger whose dancing I hate

[Shadow]

If TNA builds more factions and uses these WWE wrestlers to hype the TNA wrestlers n put them over, then TNA will increase its fan base.. LIKE how Flair n HOGAN are putting over the younger talent now as managers.. I'll watch TNA from 7 to 8 pm then I'll tivo the rest while I watch RAW.

You poor poor deluded soul.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Knox just seemed to be a perfect example of "creative had nothing for him". When he first got drafted to SmackDown he picked up an "evil doctor" gimmick which I thought seemed awesome. Then he didn't win a match in 6 months despite having the kind of look WWE would push.</font>

[RGWhat316]

I'm even more pissed with Mickie's release now, since before the OTL ppv next month here in Detroit, she was scheduled to do a signing, and I wanted to meet her. Looks like she will be pulled now. And yet Alicia Fox is still employed.

[Londoner]

Wow, I am legit shocked at Shelton and especially Mickie James.

Same, even though they never seem to do anything with Shelton i still feel they could've done alot more, he'll be in TNA for certain. I have always thought mickie would suit TNA too.

[JT]

With one less show to promote people on, some of the good but less featured stars make sense to let go. I wouldn't be suprised to see anymore good wrestlers being placed on there...wonder if Christian will end up on it.

[Theo Dious]

i wonder if wwe will re hire haas to keep him from taging with shelton in tna.

You are retarded as hell. WWE does nothing to keep TNA from doing anything.

[The Mackem]

It's been a while since Mickie James was in TNA, so much so I almost forgot the name she was using back then.

[Londoner]

It's been a while since Mickie James was in TNA, so much so I almost forgot the name she was using back then.

totally didn't know she was in tna before, or maybe i did but just seem to have forgot!

[RiX1024]

WHAAAAAAT?!!! Shelton and Mickie released....please go to TNA or ROH!!!!

About time with Mike Knox, Slam Master J and Jimmy Yang (great wrestler mind you!!) (good old creative got nowt for you)

Bit gutted with Funaki's release thought he had loyalty like Val Venis, oh wel!

Plus I agree with the whole Primo bit! he'll be next!

[Ermaximus]

With one less show to promote people on, some of the good but less featured stars make sense to let go. I wouldn't be suprised to see anymore good wrestlers being placed on there...wonder if Christian will end up on it.

I don't think Vince is that stupid. If TNA had RVD, Hardy, and Christian (3 of the most over faces in the business), it would seriously hurt. He'll just continue to keep him under the glass ceiling is all.

Faces I see leaving soon:
Primo
Finlay
JTG
Vance Archer
Tyler Reks
Abe Washington
Tony Atlas

[TGR]

*eyes his pink slip thingie list, appreciatively*

[Afterlife]

My meaningless opinion:

Irritated with Yang's treatment since they fired Shannon Moore. Glad he's got his freedom.

Irritated that they honestly couldn't find anything for Knox to do when Finlay got hurt.

Irritated that Funaki started up the Kung Fu gimmick and garnered wins with the crane kick on SD, only to be moved to Raw almost immediately so they could crush him into nothingness again.

Irritated by Jesse's treatment overall. I sincerely hate it when they split up tag teams prematurely, and even moreso when they split up tag teams without a plan for either man. The wigger thing was a very bad idea, but that's really not the point, I guess.

Baffled that they kept Katie Lea after firing Paul, only to fire her after a few months of nothing, anyway.

Surprised Mickie lasted the last year, anyway. Hopefully she and Maria do well enough with the music to let WWE know they don't need them, either.

Surprised to see Benjamin gone, but let's not kid ourselves, the guy is his own glass ceiling.

Anyway, hope they all do alright.

[Rammsteinmad]

Sad to hear about Benjamin. Madly underated talent right there.

I pray for a Team Angle/WGTT reunion in TNA.

[HBPunk]

Mike Knox is the worst there is, the worst there was and the worst there ever will be. SO generic, Mike Knox' gimmick was basically 'im tall and i have no razor' just fuck off. Now please release Khali, Kozlov and Henry and we are rolling

knox had an awesome gimmick, i loved the little vignettes that played during his entrance

"the human body is made of 70% water, if you rub the sternum fast enough you can turn a man into steam"

[Schlomey]

I politely disagree. Knox was amazing. He was never given a fair shot. Dude had some amazing moves for his size and looked like a real beast. The Axe Kick & the cross body block are some of the craziest looking moves in the world when he delivers them. I'm really sad he is gone.

knox and mickie james are on smackdown tonight, it will be interesting to see what happens there e.g vintage wwe ritual humiliation

[Schlomey]

Mickie was such a quick release I highly doubt it. I would bet money on a Knox loss...Not because of his release but because they haven't let him win a match in over a year.

[kareru]

is it time for round 2 already?


WWE released seven wrestlers yesterday, and there could be more. Matt Hardy made the following comments on his Twitter, which considering the releases, are very interesting…

“After 13 title reigns during my WWE career, I’ve more than exceeded what anyone ever expected from me-& I’m optimistic there’s more to come.”

“But I truly feel that I’ll actually have more to offer to the industry with my mind than I could physically with my body in the long run..

“I have alot of projects going on currently.. But I love pro wrestling & it will always be in my blood. Always. It’s given me a great life.”

“You guys give me the motivation to push on with or without the help of the “machine”.. I pride myself on being the “Self-Made Superstar”

It’s no secret that Shannon Moore, Jeff Hardy, and others have been trying to get Matt to leave WWE for TNA for quite some time now. It should also be noted that it’s two completely different atmospheres backstage. Many people in TNA are happy to go to work (likely due to the lesser travel schedule and the fact that Dixie Carter runs things in a ‘mellow’ way) while people within WWE are fed up and have been for a long time now.

[HBPunk]

The Axe Kick & the cross body block are some of the craziest looking moves in the world when he delivers them.

im not taking that seriously at all sorry

[Swiss Ultimate]

Honestly, my biggest surprise here is Funaki. I thought he was pretty well in with the company, a job for life. I know he did some stuff for WWE in Japan.

Me too. I'm just...extremely confused.

I like you bro, I really do, but you're the polar opposite of Lance Storm. If you could be serious for a minute I'd be worried about who hijacked your account.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I liked Knox to the point that he was a slightly above average hoss. But what can you do?

This is exactly my feelings on it. I am much more upset by the releases of pretty much everyone else. Even Funaki & Gordy. I hope that Gordy finds employment with TNA under his real name. I think his style would fit in well there. He'd make a great X-Division guy down the line.

[CSL]

If Gordy had anything to really offer, we probably would have seen it by now.

Jesus fucking Christ I can't believe this!!!!! I hope Vince and the entire WWE writing staff get cancer and die a slow and extremely painful death and yes I am completely serious about that! WWE just keeps screwing up their product more and more I mean Micky, Katie Lea, and Shelton?! WTF where they thinking?!?!?! They fire them and keep people like Eve, Layla, Santino, and Hornswoggle?!?!?!?! I pray to god and every other riligious figure that TNA picks them up and crushes WWE into fucking oblivion!!!! Fucking cocksuckers! AAAHHHHH!!!!!

[Droford]

You know what they should do?

They should take all the people they fired this go round and stick them in NXT 2: Who wants their job back?

That sauce makes it look like it has egg in it.

They'll probably do that and market it as a breakfast sandwich now.

Haas was released in February.

Ha, lol, hadn't even noticed he was gone.

[The Show Off]

It's been a while since Mickie James was in TNA, so much so I almost forgot the name she was using back then.

Alexis Laree.

[McLegend]

I think TNA isn't interested in Hass. He has been relased before and TNA never picked him up. Now he's been out of the WWE since Feburary and he still no mention of him in TNA.

And of course since this is TNA Haas could sign a contract after this post.

[Jimmy Cones]

Shelton is enough to get me to watch TNA

[DAMN iNATOR]

I like you bro, I really do, but you're the polar opposite of Lance Storm. If you could be serious for a minute I'd be worried about who hijacked your account.

They didn't even pick him up when they had his wife under contract.

Benjamin being released is the best thing for Hass' chances of getting into TNA.
