Several WWE Releases

[MTMT]

WWE has come to terms on the release of WWE Divas Mickie James and Katie Lea Burchill as well as Superstars Shelton Benjamin, Kung Fu Naki, Slam Master J and Jimmy Wang Yang as of today, April 22, 2010. We wish them the best in all future endeavors.



The only one I'm pissed about is Benjamin. He's probably one of the most talented wrestling on the damn roster. They never used him properly. Dixie Carter needs to sign him as soon as his 90 days are up. If TNA signs him, I'll start watching TNA (I've heard the product is getting better, so I might give it another shot soon anyway).

[AWA CEO: Mr. Timothy Draven]

Wow! Mickie James was great. I hate seeing her go. I'm sure she'll be with TNA very soon.

Jimmy Wang is a damn good wrestler. The guy can do some great things inside the ring....unfortunately, he was given one of the dumbest gimmicks EVER and it ruined him. Let him go to TNA and be an X Division guy and he'll be fine.

Shelton Benjamin is WAY too good to not be pushed as a champion. I want him to go to TNA and feud with The Pope. A heel "Gold Standard" Shelton Benjamin (with a manager) vs. The Pope would be incredible....I'd also enjoy Kurt Angle vs. Benjamin....a lot of options for him in TNA.

Shocked about Shelton and Mickie. Both are very good performers.

I thought Christian might have been on that list.

[MTMT]

You can add Mike Knox to that list... though to be honest, I'm shocked he lasted as long as he did.

Mickie James! im not happy about that simply because she should be leading the womens division along with Beth, Gail and Maryse. However im hoping she can go to TNA and be used correctly. He look and ring style will suit the Knockouts Division well.

Shelton Benjamin! i think this has to be his call, the WWE have had so long to sack him and not taken that option, because they know they can put him in the ring and he can deliver. He has TNA to run with and yes he could do great business there if used right. TNA has proven they can do it, Christian and Pope being 2 of the major WWE underused talents that they did wondered with.


TNA is doing some great things, but also a lot of bad things. I said before and ill stick by it, im not really judging them yet, they have so much potential but also so many different people to try and please.

TNA right now is doing a decent pick of young and old, fresh and not so fresh. a game or trial and error and i wish them the best.

with the WWE pissing away such great talent all the time, TNAcan only get better.

[Whitey Ford]

I think TNA will grab up Mickie James first. I might be wrong, but didn't she come from the indy circuit right before WWE? TNA has always been good at using that style of talent, and everyone knows who Mickie James is. She's hot. WWE fans will recognize her and probably start paying more attention to the Knockouts division if she goes to TNA

[SLAM II]

if WWE had worked with benjamins microphone skills, he would have been the total package.

[Anthony Jordan]

Why not give Shelton a manager? Why is having a manager a lost art? Some guys can't speak, but could get over with a good manager working the mic.

[SLAM II]

because you have kids and retards watching the shows no adays who don't understand what a manager is. They think its just an escort who stands beside the ring to screw the good guy and thats that.

i remember some of the managers from way back in the day thats what shelton needs a good ol' silver tounger manager!

[theegomjw]

Paul Ordorff would be an awesome manager, he owns on the mic

[AWA Staff]

I agree with SHelton, if he goes TNA....I'm watching. SHelton vs RVD, Hardy, Styles....could be fantastic!
