    Does Drew and Mahal being released mean that Heath is going back to being the one man band babaaaaay?

    More importantly, going back to this theme:

    Young did his knee in so he is out for months and Titus is the king of WWE Superstars.

    So was Drew personally fired by Vince?

    I was just wondering, would some of these guys ask to be written off tv or fired on tv?
    I'm sure some would be okay with it and it would add to the power of the Authority

    Mark Carano (of Total Divas fame) handled the firings.

    Hunter and Vince keep their hands clean of the firings despite they are the people who really wield the axe.

    Was just a reference to the fact Drew would always say how he was personally hired by Vince.

    Forgotten how racist Shelton's promo was for Tatsu's debut:



    Ok I totally forgot Tatsu's debut in general but still. :P

    I don't think anybody doubts this? :confused:

    I've watched few shoot interviews that had someone say Vince McMahon is a swell guy but that Jim Ross/Johnny Ace was an asshole.

    Fair enough. I would have always presumed these decisions were approved at the top. I wouldn't hold it against anybody that talent gets released though, it happens. Part and parcel of the industry. I don't always agree with who gets let go but that's just opinion.

    Remember Charlie Haas specifically not get the good Cop/bad Cop deal.

    Gist of it: Dixie Carter is there at the top.

    She's the guy that owns TNA


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,900 ✭✭✭Eire-Dearg


    Lisa Ann is also in it.

    So TNA or porn.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    Wait for CM Punk to do the same in a few months and send the internet over the edge :pac:

    The two aren't necessarily mutually exclusive.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,429 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Yeah, one requires you to give up all sense of pride and dignity.


    The other is porn :pac:

    I think the reality of working for WWE is crazy.
    Like, growing up I thought it was this amazing dream job where you make shit loads of money and is just well... so awesome :pac: But those lucrative spots are only for those lucky few and the backstage politics are unreal.

    Most guys just have a short run in WWE and if you:

    - Arent on alot of ppv's you wont make good money (no bonuses or royalities later on)
    - Lack of t-shirts or merch = no decent royalites for you.
    - Lack of tv bonus if you are hardly on RAW or SmackDown.
    - House shows pay little.
    - You will not get paid for WWE Network content.

    So if you are a jobber you are screwed :pac:
    I imagine if you save well you will come out alright after your what, average 5 year run (?) but thats it generally. No WCW or another top promotion to go work for.

    Evan Bourne has aged the past 2+ years

    Best indy match from the releasees so far for me is Brodus Clay vs Homicide for New Jesery's PWS.

    PWInsider.com has heard from several sources that Josh Mathews was let go over the last 24 hours. His profile has already been removed from WWE.com, although the company has not yet acknowledged his departure.

    Mathews has been with the company since the original Tough Enough reality series on MTV and had been doing announcing as well as hosting the WWE Network's Raw, Smackdown and PPV Pre and Post Show panels.

    He could have been Pope, Ted.

    Man I'll miss Josh Matthews. Thought he was the coolest guy in the world when I watched Tough Enough purely for his highlights.

    I was 11 lads, it's not my fault.




    I shudder to think who is gonna host the pre show and post show now. Anyone other than Renee Young would be madness. I don't mind seeing him go if I see more Renee Young.

    They do, but at the moment I can only really picture them as interviewers or commentators.

    I'm probably wrong, but hasn't Renee been the most prominent out of the three of them TV wise?

    Ah damn! Striker and Matthews were always two of my faves and now they're both gone!
