Twisted Intestine 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2004 So far Palumbo and Albert are the two that I'll miss.... Start firing crappier people! CHRIS NOWINSKI, GARRISON CADE, MARK HENRY, MAVEN, RODNEY MACK, SYLVAIN GRENIER, TYSON TOMKO, AKIO, HARDCORE HOLLY, HEIDENREICH, HIROKO, LUTHER REIGNS, MARK JINDRAK! There, fire all of them!

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2004 I really dig Heidenreich's music. Plus that "rape" scene was so fucking ridiculous that he deserves at least 6 more months. You can't fire Hiroko...then we lose Kenzo, and he's entertaining. And GRENIER? Break up the only team on Raw? I mark out for all 3 La Res members, and they're going to only get better. Good music, decent enough in ring-performance, and lots of title reigns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I too saw this match. It was easily Chuck's best showing ever. He got several near-falls on Benoit. I thought WWE was about to give him a big push with as much offense as he got in. But, I guess not.

Guest wrestling365 Report post Posted November 4, 2004 That is 6 in 3 days. Any idea how much Gail Kim, Nidia and chuck palumbo were making?. It was said that A-train, gunn & test were making $200,000. It shows you how bad things are for the wwe. You gotta wonder who will be next. They've had plenty of opportunity to get over. 86 em' and let others have an opportunity... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2004 Now that Patterson is gone, how soon before his lover boy gets released? If he doesn't rock the boat and continues to improve I don't think they'll cut him for a while, but he's yet to show any major upsides. CHRIS NOWINSKI, GARRISON CADE, MARK HENRY, MAVEN, RODNEY MACK, SYLVAIN GRENIER, TYSON TOMKO, AKIO, HARDCORE HOLLY, HEIDENREICH, HIROKO, LUTHER REIGNS, MARK JINDRAK! Nowinski has potential to be used in a non-wrestling role, and certainly has more upsides than Josh Matthews, Grisham, etc. WWE likes Cade for some reason, ditto with Jindrack. Henry's contract expires when again? Maven, Mack, Tomko, Holly, Heidenreich I agree with. Grenier I agree with, but maybe they like the guy. Akio I disagree with, although the way they use him they may as well cut him. Hiroko is a worthless valet to a worthless wrestler, but they may decide to try to get some Diva shoots out of her first. Reigns is good on the mic and they seem to like him, so don't think he'll be fired. Of course, they can't cut all the jobbers... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Mandarin 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2004 With Gail Kim gone, Tigerdriver91 ceases to exist. A-Train really doesn't deserve to be out of a job. Maybe he does for his (lack of) wrestling skills, but he helps mentally handicapped kids and he's just a good guy in general. I hope he gets another high-paying job soon.

starvenger 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2004 Coming soon to Total Nonstop Action. They are better than the Naturals, 3LW, New Yonkers Connection, AMW. Why would you want Billy and Chuck when you can reunite the Natural Born Thrillers? Anyways, I could see Harvard Chris getting the boot. I like his character actually, but guys on IR aren't making the company money. Or something. And I'm shocked that Linda Miles and Jackie weren't released before Nidia.

CanadianChick 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2004 Chuck doesn't surprise me one bit. Nidia and Gail being fired is a bit surprising though. Are they slowly getting rid of the women's division, or are they bring up some new talent from OVW? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlaskanHero 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2004 (edited) Tyson Tomko, Maven, Mark Henry, Dawn Marie, Torrie Wilson, Stacy Kiebler, The Coach, Eric Bischoff, Theodore Long, Ric Flair, Gene Snitsky, Jon Heidenreich, Hardcore Holly, Doug & Danny Basham, Spike Dudley, Luther Reigns, Mark Jindrak, Sylvan Grenier, Akio, Kenzo, Hiroko, Bill DeMott, Jerry Lawler, Molly Holly, Chris Nowinski, Garrison Cade, Rosey, Christy Hemme, Ivory, Jazz, Todd Grisham, Steven Richards, Val Venis, Victoria, Funaki, Johnny Stamboli, Shannon Moore, Scotty 2 Hotty, Rico, & Miss Jackie. That should about cover it. Then get rid of the Women's division, one of the tag team division and the brand split. Kill the "B" shows as well. I counted and this would leave the roster with exactly 50 people on it and nearly no jobbers. 50 workers used for two 2 hour shows is not a good idea (unless it's EWR). They can barely do anything with the 40+ (Raw has around 44 and Smackdown has around 43) they have on each side of roster split and they only have to fill 3 hours a week with only two being really exposed. Everyone not a Main Eventer now wouldn't even have hope with Trips, Angle, and Taker all together with their political power. EDIT-And the 50 isn't counting the 6 who have already been taken out so that means there would be 44 workers for two 2 hour primetime shows.
