    Sounds like there could be an almighty cull by the weeks end.

    Realistically who is the biggest name that could be on the chopping block?

    Alberto Del Rio

    Khali makes a fortune for them in India. Regardless of him being on tv or not, surely he gets kept around just for that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,553 ✭✭✭Blue_Dabadee


    The Great Khali has a job for life in WWE because he is popular in India.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,448 ✭✭✭Garseys


    Are we to expect a huge cut of talent going today or just a handful of talent/staff?


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


    is this maybe just a work, to have ricardo off air but have el locale move up onto raw and smackdown etc?

    no sin cara, no rey, he could be the new mexican star?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Sin Cara worked a tag match with Kalisto on NXT last week, so in essence he replaced Rodriguez on that show last time out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,365 ✭✭✭✭rossie1977


    el locale was horrible and stunk out the joint at nxt takeover. rodriguez should stop pretending to be a wrestler and stick to what he does best as a valet.

    Maybe before but now? Is he still a draw in India?

    He has celebrity like status in India. He is a big deal which is why despite being awful, they roll him out every now and then.

    There's stuff I revel in being right about and swing my dick around on but this isn't one of those things.

    NXT are releasing people as we speak.

    Whos potentially on the chopping block or is anyone safe? I imagine the names for Takeover are all safe.

    Of course. As I said elsewhere it is people who are returning after long term injury and those who are losing on recent TVs seems to be what they draw from going by pass releases. So for example Oliver Grey was released after his first match back after a year being out for a knee injury. Chris Hero was released after being DESTROYED on NXT TV.

    Talent evaluation is very Microsoft Excel based. Everything is monitored and I assume scored. The cut list is drafted in advance it is not just decided on the day.

    I assume then that Corey Graves could be done so being injured.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,126 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I hope not, I quite like Graves.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,089 ✭✭✭✭rovert


    They will keep Graves for legal reasons IMHO.

    Jody Kristofferson has announced he is released. THAT Kris Kristofferson's son and a Rosebud/comedy jobber:

    Travis Tyler gone. Can't say I remember any of his work.

    He may have done an NXT TV job match. But was a fixture on NXT live events doing a Rick Martel rip off Model gimmick.

    A lot of the male non-indie darling talent are very by the numbers.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,089 ✭✭✭✭rovert


    Heard there are several unexpected people. Baron Corbin seemingly being one.

    Triple H mentioned him on the last conference call in the same breath as Neville and Zayn.

    Big guy who going to be packaged with Vickie Guerrero daughter Shaul:

    PWInsider:
    Released were Garett Dylan, Travis Tyler, Slate Randall, Mac Miles and Dani Jax.

    Slate Randall was a true surprise. Was in a Reality TV show with The Rock and protege of Paul Bearer.

    As of five minutes ago I heard indirectly all is good with Becky.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,900 ✭✭✭Eire-Dearg


    Probably gone because his name is 'Slate Randall'.

    Pity, like Ziggler his real name is a perfectly good wrestler name.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,096 ✭✭✭✭the groutch


    WWE are just as bad as TNA when it comes to holding on to fogeys.
    They could have released any one of Christian, Henry, Mysterio or RVD and cover the cost of all the releases this year.

    I still hold out hope for a proper run for Christian, but Mysterio should be let go all right. It seems to be what he wants at any rate.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,365 ✭✭✭✭rossie1977


    grey was a serious mark for ricker. next austin or rock :D

    Martin Stone said the same thing. A lot of others considered Ricker the best guy in developmental.

    Mac Miles is WWE's Emma's boyfriend. So WWE got their revenge on her finally!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,286 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Obviously a Donegal man would be better for her.

    Though seeing that pic reminds me of the finer points of bra and pantie matches


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,773 ✭✭✭connemara man


    Lads we all know a Galwegian would be her first choice. Especially the ones with the Cúpla focal.

    I've no interest in her though

    They released Mark Yeaton who has worked for WWE since you were a nipper or a twinkle in your Da's eye:
