Gangrel released?? He had a job??
 

Okay so The Gymini (surprise, surprise...) and Gangrel have been released by WWE.

But Gangrel hasn't been on TV for about two years. He's been under contract ALL that time???

I thought he was released months ago.

I wonder if this is the beginning of "The Big Clean Up of 2007"...

:'(

I guess they thought Kevin Thorn was close enough.

LOL

Poor Angel Williams.

First she was suppose to replace Jillian Hall managing JBL. That got nixed.

And then a few months ago she was suppose to debut managing the Gymini. And now they got released.

I was really hoping for a Brood reformation with Kevin Thorn and Gangrel.

Not one that I'd care to remember, though, thanks...:wtf: :shifty:

Shut up, Gangrel was the man.

I'm not saying he wasn't...it's just that they could have found something a little more...positive to say about him instead of mentioning just his gimmick. They could have listed any titles he may have won, significant feuds, etc., etc. ...

Didn't he only hold the Hardcore title?

Edit: LOL, not even the Hardcore title...

:'(:'(

Uh oh! Three more! Looks like it's clear out time!

World Wrestling Entertainment released several more talents this afternoon, including ECW star Tony Mamaluke, Al Snow, and Doug FUCKING Basham.

From PWInsider.

Alienoid just had a heart attack.

Snow and Basham :'(

but I liked fucking Basham :p

Wait...THEY RELEASED AL SNOW!? WHAT THE FUCK!?

Holy shit, I never thought they'd release Al Snow. Not really surprised about any of the others though.

I had the same thoughts as Shadow? That's scary.

Know what's scary asshole? You posting in every single thread again.

I'm not though.

It's not like Al Snow was wrestling or anything.

It looks like he'll still be a trainer in OVW.

Yeah, that's what I meant but he was released from the company all together? Surprises me.

You can say bye to Danny Basham as well.

Looks like a big roster cut.

Add Sylvester Terkay, Jazz, and Rodney Mack to the list.

I didn't hear about Terkay yet.

WWE.com, they're just updating.

Just a bunch of jobbers/guys they aren't using anyway...

Probably one big name will be gone.

Gonna say Sabu.

If Lashley wasn't the "ECW Champion" (and I use that term loosely), he would probably be on the chopping block right now. Why did RVD have to get busted? *argh*

Also, I cannot express how badly I want to see "The Miz" added to this list of released workers. They gotta make room in the budget for the new bikini models that WWE will be signing soon. (Seriously)

Few suprises on that one i guess...

Terkay: Not really seen much of him since his transfer to ECW, but on Smackdown im sure he could have had a few decent matches with the likes of Benoit etc.

Al Snow: Been with the company donkeys years? I thought he worked like a talent guy/scout, hohum!

Gymini: The Goldberg-lookalikes, was they ever even defeated? I havent seen em in months mind, but i aint seen Simon Dean in ages either

Apparently Snow has only been relieved of his duties as a wrestler, not that they used him much since ECW restarted. He will still work for OVW, he'll probably take over the book again methinks.

This slew of firings is rather ominous for ECW, don't you think? It currently stands at:

Sylvester Terkay (ECW)
Jazz (ECW)
Al Snow (ECW)
Tony Mamaluke (ECW)
The Bashams (ECW as the enforcers)
Gangrel (due to join the ECW vampires)

The Gymini (brandless)
Rodney Mack (brandless).

No active Raw or SmackDown wrestlers on the list. Surprise, surprise...

OMGKPUNKIISDGONE!DING

this is great! I hope more get cut! A leaner wwe is better than havng more guys than they need.

i thought al snow had a job for life like holly.

He was only release of his wrestling contract. He's still with the company.

I'd guess either he was getting two paychecks or they wanted to cut back on his payout.

I was enjoying Elijah Burke and The Man Bear. Oh well, I guess Burke's better than nothing.

Also, anybody notice the abundance of black guys in ECW?

Maybe they're looking to get picked up by The WB. :shifty:

All these cuts make sense except for Mamaluke. Whats up with that.
