I know Burke is going to piss off a lot of people on this board. I wonder why they released him.

wwe is so f*cking dumb, what?, they fire people who have tallent like dykstra and burke but keep jobbers like funaki. WWE seriously needs to get a grip if they want to be sucesfull in the future.

Yeah, its probably been that long since he actually appeared on an ECW program. Sucks though, Elijah was cool. I actually saw him and Terkay make their debut in Detroit. Now both are long gone.

And I just read on the main page that creative had nothing for Elijah. You know I hear this story all the time and it doesn't make much sense. If creative has nothing for one of the stars, the star gets fired? It is supposed to be the creative member's job to come up with a storyline, and if they can't do their job, they should be fired. I've never understood that concept.

I think it's funny how they can come up with angles for guys like Hawkins and Ryder, yet get stumped when figuring up something for guys like Paul London and Elijah Burke.

No surprise at Lena. Some of us knew one of the diva runner-ups might be going.
What did Kenny do to lose Mickie James? Seriously? When that happened he just dissapeared.
And yes, I too am pissed Burke got released. But wait, isn't Vince trying go get more African-Americans tuned into WWE? Something stinks about this.

Real Estate.
Every storyline takes up time on the air, and they're usually pretty crowded to begin with. I know that's oversimplified, but people keep bringing up this gripe as though it's as cut and dry as "we can't think of anything," and it's really not.

C'mon. WWE is full of multitaskers. They will probably FE both of them at the same round.

You should post that WWE will grow some balls again, put their rating up to TV14, and make Monday Night Raw edgy again instead of gay and poop jokes ala DX and Cena.

Oh my God. They fired Kenny. You bastards.
*said in the circa season 3 matter-of-fact fashion.*
Honestly, I don't care. Two boring guys and one piece of eye candy I don't even think I'd recognize to see. Who farking cares.

I like that they produced this weird program with Ric Flair and Kenny after the Spirit Squad died quietly, then did absolutely nothing with him.
I mean, he was average in the ring and didn't have a single unit of charisma but it's retarded that they could and would raise someone to that level and then throw them in the garbage.
And they have no excuse on Elijah. He's golden.

I've just seen a picture of Lena Yada....oh my fucking god are they serious? She's a hot a...oooooooooooooh. I'm guessing Lena has been let go so they can get an even hotter asian.
And Candice Michelle somehow keeps a job. Right.

Lance Cade
Super Crazy
Paul London
Chuck Palumbo

Elijah will go to ROH or japan, and get picked back up in about a year. he is too good not to get a 2nd run.

Thing is, Elijah Burke is a pro on the mic and damn good in the ring. Paul London is the goods in the ring, and has plenty of personality. Yeah, those guys suck ass.
That being said, in the case of some of these guys, they'll get a chance to strut their stuff better elsewhere.

I'm going to place money on Hardcore Holly next. Paul Burchill isn't a bad pick, either.
