The first part of this is an assumption. They were already very popular with the company before any of this happened.

Weren't they let go and only came back to the WWE because they were attached to Cena & Bryan and then plugged into the Total Divas starring gig? I think my point stands.
Everything about their second stint with the company has to do with the men they're attached to.

I thought NXT was where old guys went to become new again, but it looks like if you show up on there after months off TV, it's just your death rattle.

Tyson Kidd's hoping to be the exception to that rule. I hope he's successful.

So which people are TNA going to pick up and which people are Jeff Jarrett's organization picking up?

Evan Bourne will hopefully go to New Japan.

While i am never happy that someone loses their job, because bla bla i wanna seem nice and "polite"

None of those people done anything worthwhile in the company, partially their fault and partially creative.

Guess thats it for Three Man Band

McIntyre was "the chosen one" and failed miserably, then his wife beat him up at a hotel and he got punished for it.

They came back because of Total Divas. Anything else is an assumption.

No. The Bellas asked for their release because they said they needed a break, pursued other things and found out that nobody wants them and went back.

I think they pitched a reality show about themselves to E!, they weren't that interested so they went back to WWE and pitched them the idea of Total Divas, but I'm fuzzy on those details.

I used to wrestle for a company called Anglian Championship Wrestling in the uk, later became Total Action Wrestling. Am friends with Alex Shane, British wrestling promoter and former owner of FWA, hence, wrestled Drew Galloway.

No I won't reveal my persona because embarrassment at my abysmal physique and performance lol.

I was really starting to enjoy 3MB's antics. Wonder what Heath can do on his own now (just getting back into wrestling myself, have no idea of prior history)

I think he was doing roughly the same gimmick from when he started, they just threw two other guys into the mix. Hopefully he stays 3MB with just him, ignoring the fact that it doesn't make sense.

The Bella Twins are popular because Vince has a hardon for the whole twins thing. That is the only reason their no talent selvess have been around as long as they have.

If Vince could get a fresh new pair of 21 year old Twins the Bellas would be replaced in 2 snaps of a finger.

Also the twins are with the top talents in the company.

Daniel Bryan is married to Brie and Nikki is with Cena.

Damn, it's pretty bad when I recognize almost everybody on this list. :(

Poor 3MB, they lost 2/3rd of the team in one day!
(At least the King of Jobbers retains his rightful place!)

And hell, I thought Evan Bourne was already gone.
(Zack Ryder better be hiding though...I'm sure he won't be far behind them all soon.)

Indeed. I'd do mad shit to have a job like that.

I'll have to pour a 40 for my man JTG. :(

Ryder is safe because even though they killed his big push he still remains pretty popular at house shows etc. He is actively used pretty much every week unlike a lot of guys who have sat around on the roster

The most awkward result of Brodus's heel turn and firing is that the Funkadactyls on their own with no context for that theme song and dancing just seems like the most racist gimmick to ever happen.

You can't really say that in a world where Harlem Heat were originally meant to basically be slaves. Hell, R-Truth might be a bigger racial caricature than the Funkadactyls.

Who the hell is Barreta?

Former WWE Superstar Trent Baretta tweeted the following about the WWE releases today, apparently taking a shot at Kofi Kingston:
"Shoulda been Kofi."

"Fired friends. If you love wrestling you're about to have the most fun ever."

This isn't the first time Baretta has taken a shot at Kofi on Twitter. You may remember back in 2013 Baretta tweeted the following about Kofi:

"Now that I'm fired I can finally say it: Kofi Kingston is an asshole."
