Kanyon Released
From WWE.com
WWE’s Talent Relations Department has announced that Chris Kanyon has been released from his contract as of Monday, Feb. 9. Damn, that sucks. But he wasn't being used anyways. Maybe TNA will pick him up and use him? And shepherds we shall be, for thee my lord for thee. Power hath decended forth from thy hand so our feet may swiftly carry out thy command. And we shall flow a river forth to thee and teeming with souls shall it ever be. In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. |

Its so funny to me that Kanyon gets released and people in the WWE are saying they are high on John Heindenriech (anyone know how to spell his name?), makes no sense.
Kanyon is a talented cat, and for whatever reason he just never got a chnace in the WWE. He should be on the next TNA show, and at least with their thin roster he'll get a chance to actually work. Just too bad we dont get to see him on a major level anymore. |

At least we haven't seen John recently.
But damn.. sux for Kanyon. Hopefully he can find a place at TNA or something like that. No paycheck sucks. |

Kanyon ain't gonna be short on work offers. He will easy get a TNA deal and Japan will definately will fighting over him.

I'd be really pissed, but the WWE is actually doing a decent job, so I won't explode just yet. Who is (or are) in charge of scouting talent and deciding who to push in the WWE?

It's still pretty ****t that he is released, he just didn't get used as he should be used, so i hope indeed that he will be picked up by the TNA.

Doesn't surprise me. Hopefully Kanyon gets a better push in TNA.

I still don't get the reasoning behind some of the things the WWE does.
One day Vince tells all the guys to put on really good matches. Kanyon does this week in and weak out and three weeks later, he's released. |

Hell I rank Kanyon up by the RVD's, Booker T & Christian's. And if given a chance to succeed I'd probally rank him up there with Jericho, Benoit or HBK |

Kanyon is twenty times better than most of them (Bashams can work and Morgan is a rookie so I let him slide) but look at all their bodies and you'll have your answer. How Ernest Miller has a job anywhere with his "talents" is amazing.

Doug Basham - CAN put on 5* matches, but isn't being allowed to. Keep him. Danny Basham - Was a fantastic heel in OVW. Can be in WWE. Keep him. Orlando Jordan - Also has a lot of potential. A legit athlete. Keep him. Rikishi - Yeah, we get it. You're fat. Go away. Dump him. Batista - If used right, could be the next Kane. Keep him. Garrison Cade - FANTASTIC wrestler. Definitely keep him. Mark Jindrak - A reunion with O'Haire would showcase his skills. Keep him. Faarooq - On the verge of retirement anyway, so dump him. Mark Henry - Bet you're regretting that 10-year contract now, eh? Dump him. Scott Steiner - DUMP HIM NOW! Ernest Miller - If he didn't have Lamont, he'd be worthless. Dump him. Rosey - Entertaining gimmick, over with the crowd. Keep him. Out of all the guys you mentioned, I'd only cut Heidenreich, Bradshaw, Rikishi, Faarooq, Henry, Steiner, and the Cat. You listed some MAJOR talents in that post, dude. |

It would be nice to see him in TNA, then I have one more reason to rationalize paying $10 for wrestling. I had Jeff Jarret and Raven, hopefully he will get there soon.

This is probably for the best. Sure, he won't be making as much money on the indy scene, but now he's got a much longer shelf life, and a shot at regaining his credibility. Whether he comes down South to TNA, or goes over to Japan, or whatever, I'd say this is hardly the end of the world for Kanyon.
$5 says Ultimo Dragon's next. |

Yeah, I know I did. It wasn't wrestlers who I'd necessarily cut... Just a list of wrestlers who in my opinion are not as good as Kanyon, but still have a job. I personally think some of those guys I mentioned are good wrestlers and some with good potential. But I think Kanyon is the superior wrestler if you compare his skills to those who I mentioned. Sorry if I didn't make that clear. |

From what I remember of him back in the WCW days he always worked hard in his matches and showed show very nice moves. Too bad for him, but I'm firmly in the belief that he'll get work elsewhere.
