Seriously, if you think WWE is releasing Kay a year after that tweet, on the same day they also released a freaking grandmother from the company, I'm not sure what to tell you.

Kay has flamed out terribly as a singles competitor in the company.

This may be the either the most dorky or confusing post ever on the OT.

Billie is attractive and somewhat entertaining as a goof but the first time i ever saw her wrestle, she was horribly unathletic and not very coordinated. Wish her the best, along with peyton, mickey and the other wrestlers released.

Let me put it in non-wrestling terms, tard.

She got fired for reasons that have nothing to do with a year-old goddamned tweet.

Some of you idiots will try to make ANYTHING political and you're too pathetic to realize how equally dumb you are for this.

the blonde Liv Morgan you have featured in your avatar is also anti-America, pro-BLM Marxism

And guess who WWE hasn't and won't fire for that opinion? Liv Morgan.

She was funny though. The resume stuff was good. She was shite as a Wrestler though compared to the other women. She should have been a manager for someone so we got her acting ability without the poor wrestling.

I think her not getting caught up in this round increases the odds that they are going to use her in the Sister Abigail (as rumored.) Ruby not being released makes me think it's going to be on a slow burn until SummerSlam or they could bring Logan back to replace Liv.

The full list:
Samoa Joe
Billie Kay
Mickie James
Chelsea Green
Tucker
Kalisto
Mojo Rawley
Bo Dallas
Wesley Blake
PeyRo


A couple make some sense. Joe and Mickie are older and have had repeated medical issues. They pulled the plug on Billie just before her schtick got stale. Tucker/Kalisto/MoJo/Blake were tag guys who got the post-breakup Marty Jannety treatment.

Chelsea and PeyRo had really shitty timing. Chelsea was getting a rocket up her arse on Night 1 until she got hurt 20 seconds into that match. They split the IIconics up because Vince wanted to push PeyRo and then woke up the next day and said nevermind.

I thought Mickie was working backstage. She'd be great as a women's HBK style (occasional) coach in NXT. Shitty year/week for the Rotundas. First the own man gets laid off, then the older son has his gimmick buried at WM, and then the younger brother gets fired after sitting in catering for over a year.

Let's address the elephant in the room. They made these cuts less than 24 hours after releasing management salaries that included a $5m sign-on bonus for the new President and something like $8m for Vince/Steph/HHH. At best that's just bad form. At worst you now have an entire locker room (excluding Charlotte and Roman) that's pissed at you.

Finally, I don't see many of them going to AEW. I think this would be an excellent time for ROH to surpass TNA as the other (along with AEW) 2nd tier promotion. Obviously there are plenty of relationship connections where you can piece together a few of their next destinations. But does AEW really want Cassie MacIntosh when Spears may be on his way out?

That's rich. Sounds like another group that started the trend.

From what I’ve read, Bo Dallas gets to frick Liv Morgan so he’s going home a winner in this.

They waited a whole year to really gain her trust before punishing her for a tweet in a round of layoffs that included dozens of other wrestlers?


That’ll show em!

Someone from r/squaredcircle is going to see this thread and think it's the legit reason.

“This is ridiculous! Keep politics out of sports...as I interject politics into every conversation I have about anything to anyone”

Zigg almost certainly gets paid money to spam TD; don’t take anything in one of his threads too personally
