HumanChessgame Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 21 hours ago, The Nature Boy said: JTG was employed for a ridiculously long time (given how over he was and how he was being used). I'd trust him to tell me how to remain employed by WWE for a long time. Kevin Dunn: JTG Vince: Who's he? Kevin Dunn: You know, black guy, was in some mid-card tag team for a while Vince Oh, yeah. Kevin Dunn Yeah, we can't actually find a record of him being a current employee here. Kevin Dunn I looked into it more deeply and I found that apparently what happened is that he was laid off five years ago and no one ever told him about it; but through some kind of glitch in the payroll department, he still gets a paycheck. Kevin Dunn So we just went ahead and fixed the glitch. Vince Great. Vince: So, uh, JTG has been let go? Kevin Dunn: Well, just a second there, professor. We, uh, we fixed the *glitch*. So he won't be receiving a paycheck anymore, so it'll just work itself out naturally. Kevin Dunn: We always like to avoid confrontation, whenever possible. Problem is solved from your end. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got rid of what, 7 or 8 people last week? That's pretty standard. They could cut another five or six and still have too many on the roster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 But then how are they going to fill out the thanksgiving food fight sketch every year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Dave Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Henry's contract is about up. Rose. Ryback. There's 3. Summer Rae has to be on the bubble. Fandango. Konnor. Viktor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I don't think Summer Rae's on the bubble. I do think Alicia Fox is. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyld Samurai Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Summer Rae has promise. Eventually they have to consider a tag team division. I think she'd be perfect for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sabin Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Also FOXY got taken off of Total Divas as well and Summer has her rivalry with Nattie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying they usually don't cut more than they already have. They have to keep some "end of the bench" guys for house show depth and what not.

Nice Guy Eddie Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 6 hours ago, RIPPA said: BTW - Meltzer and Alvarez implied on their most recent radio show that don't be surprised if the next round of cuts comes today (well on a Friday but I don't think they want to cut folks next week before the PPV) We find it's always better to fire people on a Friday. Studies have statistically shown that there's less chance of an incident if you do it at the end of the week. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Comedian Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 It amazes me how few people seem to mention Curtis Axel in here, since he was pretty much the first guy I thought of in terms of "who might the WWE be looking to cut?" Bombed under two different gimmicks, currently the least of a stable of jobbers, all the charisma of a dishrag, all the guy's got is a decent Hogan impression...

AxB Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Yeah, but much like DiBiase posse stayed employed a year or two longer than they otherwise would, Perfect Jr also gets a little extra leeway before they give up on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyLaw Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 No way Axel is the least of the Social Outcasts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofuture Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I like that Heath Slater and the Miz are competing for most people fired after being associate with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 That's why Nexus bombed. Being in a faction with Heath Slater is the equivalent of your canary dying after you enter the mine. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of the bench and not being used should be two different things.  There are a LOT of people just not being used at all.  It is hard to get people excited about house shows when the people on the card are not on TV.

The Comedian Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 According to my facebook feed Lilian Garcia is being released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteCarl Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Rumors are that Lilian is being/has been let go. But just a few days ago reports were that she'd be returning to RAW this upcoming Monday after JoJo has been filling in for the last few weeks. Guess we'll find out on Monday.

Jiji Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I fucking cannot stand how they have all the announcers use that same pitch and tonal pattern when doing introductions. Drives me bonkers. Btw, what is a "chyampiawshyiiiiiii"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nature Boy Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Why did WWE stop using Howard Finkel on a regular basis? I know it's been years but there's still no one better. If anything, he should be doing PPVs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofuture Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I'd imagine at his age and with so many years in the business, he's not up for the work/travel schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nature Boy Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Also anyone who attacks JoJo or any other Lillian replacement should go back and watch late 1999 RAWs. Lillian was God awful when she started. JoJo is WAY ahead of where Lillian was at this point in her ring announcer development 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 To be clear, I wasn't defending Garcia. They all do it. It's terrible. At the nxt house show, the woman doing intros would go from talking normally to WWE announcer voice with no pause just to highlight how ridiculous it all is.
