    That is actually a joke. She's one of the only consistently entertaining thing about WWE in recent years

    It’s black Wednesday all over again. Same thing almost a year to the day


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Kalisto , Tucker, Chelsea Green and Wesley Blake all gone too.

    Billie Kay is a shocking one. Stunned


  • Registered Users Posts: 773 ✭✭✭TimesArrow


    Natalya and Tamina are both beyond abysmal.. both should have gone before those other females

    Are ye serious about Billie Kay? She was dreadful

    Tucker had potential. Was he injured a lot or something?

    Tamina should be gone too as she is awful.

    In saying all this, sorry about people losing their jobs though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,283 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Good job Billie has her CV ready.
    That is the biggest surprise. She's been on tv most weeks.
    When was the last time someone who had a match at Mania, that wasn't a battle royal, got let go within a week after?

    Wasn't Chelsea injured and thought there was a return teased somewhere.
    And Mickie was on the panel and commentary for the Takeover preshows. Actually thought they were getting her ready to add a woman to one of the main shows commentary.

    Samoa Joe and Bo Dallas gone


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    No Dallas too.

    Wtf at Joe. What is happening.

    Bo will be fine anyways, didn't he have a back up on going into the real estate business or something similar?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,880 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    FFS Joe gone, really annoyed and surprised at that. Can see him being great in AEW

    Wasant Dallas playing the Fiend for a few weeks ? He was at mania but only there to support his other half Liv Morgan

    Budget cuts, what an absolute load of bull****.

    Peyton Royce gone


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    Peyton Royce gone too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,426 ✭✭✭montyrebel


    Will Joe go back to wrestling? seems very injury prone the last while

    Most profitable year ever. Of any wrestling company. Ever.

    No more Iconics. They were shíte in the ring but good craic on the mic.

    Well, Billie was.

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Iiconics and Joe should be good pickups for AEW.

    I feel less bad about Billie once Peyton went too. They can sell themselves as a package. Genuinely entertaining characters.

    Yet weeks after the $1 billion dollar Peacock deal. The audacity to cite budget cuts as a means to release people, which they did last year too, if memory serves me correctly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,641 ✭✭✭RollieFingers


    If Joe is healthy and good to go him to AEW is a no-brainer, could have some great matches there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,189 ✭✭✭ThePott


    Some of these are not surprising, unfortunately WWE did them no favours. That being said; Billie and Peyton were an amazing team.
    Billie was a highlight of Smackdown and decent in the ring. Peyton was the better wrestler IMO but there's worse women there. Even send them to NXT to challenge for the new titles. Wish they had done more with Mickie James after she returned.

    Plenty of victims here of WWE breaking up teams for no reason or plans and dumping them.
    They released Samoa Joe FFS. What a shame.

    The Iconics should get absolutely nowhere near Dynamite. They shouldn't get near Dark. There's far better, far more polished talent to be found elsewhere.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    I’d say Joe was on wrestler wages but wasn’t wrestling, so was an easy paycheque to cut.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    Wouldn't at all be surprised to see Aleister Black added to the list of talents released.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,283 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Was actually surprised Peyton was still there while Billie was gone but I remember reports about Vince looking her looks.
    Since Joe's gone, Tom Phillips to follow since he was taken off commentary as well?

    The iiconics and Chelsea greene will clean up when shimmer is back, but hard to see them getting full time work anywhere.

    Court bauer needs to sell a kidney to give us Samoa Joe vs Jacob fatu (and maybe mil muertes)

    Kalisto should end up in aew or roh.

    Mickie James to nwa?

    The rest I'm meh about, unfortunately noone is owed a living in wrestling.


  • Registered Users Posts: 679 ✭✭✭daithi1989


    Billie Kay pinned someone at Mania 5 nights ago, and using “Budget Cuts” as the excuse is BS considering the Peacock deal.

    This could be the final straw with me..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,283 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    If cutting people due to budget cuts, I'm sure the likes of Natalya and others are on higher pay that wouldn't be a huge loss.
    If they don't release Black then they're really just being spiteful.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Velveteen Dream trending on Twitter now, lol

    I thought Billie sort of had a storyline going

    Shocked at Joe going was hoping he'd get a go at Rollins and Reigns when fit

    Natalya, Tamina and Nia have jobs for life to keep the Hart and Samoan hordes happy.

    Green only signed a 3 year extension to her deal a few months ago.

    Shows how easy they can get rid of talent with contracts but if the same talent want to leave it’s almost impossible due to the same contract.

    The gif that CM Punk used and tagged Samoa Joe in, absolutely top class gif.

    Having Billie do the resume gimmick only to sack her really is uncomfortable. It's sick really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,875 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Eddie Kingston to bring in Joe for support to replace Mox who is taking time off.

    They're waiting till the end of the episode to announce that they've come to terms with the release of nxt uk......


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,253 ✭✭✭The White Wolf




    Feels fitting to post this again. Joe really should have been champ even for a brief stint. For a company that's all about their heels it's crazy he didn't go over AJ in their feud.

    The absolute savagery on show from Samoa Joe in that promo. Cutting down everyone.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Joe could take the mic for thirty seconds and make you forget he jobbed to everyone. Proper badass aura off him. But I’d say a bit like Bryan, losing rarely hurt his popularity, so they made him lose to everyone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    People, the simple reason Joe was fired.......

    He never went along with Coles WrestleRainia......

    :pac:
