luke-o 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2008 Stevie is a bad release, wasn't he supposed to get a good push on ECW while Hayes had the book? I'd like to see him in TNA, maybe a token run while partnering with Meanie. The Highlanders is no suprise, but I was shocked to see they we're in the latest series of double pack Adrenaline action figures. EDIT: Thinking about it, so was Big Daddy V.

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2008 All released talents can instantly go back to the indies, though can't appear on television or DVD if they want to keep their 90 days "severance" pay. I wonder if this has to do with Raven's lawsuit... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ashamed wrestling fan 0 Report post Posted August 18, 2008 The only one I bummed about is Cherry. All she was is eye candy, but she is pretty cute and not portrayed as a washed up skeezer like everyone else. Frankly, Stevie Richards should have retired years ago. Still boggles the mind that Sparkplug Holly has a job though.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scroby 0 Report post Posted August 18, 2008 Man, I really feel sorry for that referee, since he lost his job due to the fucking Miz. Words wouldn't describe how angry I would feel over that. Since Miz is the one who fucked up, shouldn't he be released then? Why should anyone be released? It was a simple missed cue, these things happen. Watching that match live I thought Morrison was injured and thus the finish looked strange. You're both assuming the Ref got released due to Miz's mis-cue. There hasn't been anything said that confirms Adams was released due to the mis-cue. As far as we know, he may have asked for his release for whatever reason. Besides that, he did his job perfectly. the golden rule of Refereeing is to always to count to 3, if a wrestler can't get his shoulder up before hand, it's his/her fault, not the Referee. That really sucks about Stevie and Cherry. I always liked their ring work and Stevie is someone who should have been pushed as a top mid-carder for a long time. Cherry will probably go to TNA though as she wasn't bad at all in the ring and could add to their womans divison and Stevie can pretty much get work anywhere he wanted to at this point. Colin I can see because his gimmick was really a one trick pony type of gimmick that really only had so much ground to work with. Plus his promo work was very dull. Sucks for the guy, but I don't think WWE could even repackage him for anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike wanna be 0 Report post Posted August 19, 2008 Dreamer should be safe, he's good friends with Shane Yeah, but wasn't Stevie a favorite of Vince? I could have sworn I read that somewhere... He liked the way Stevie sold, and with his marketing genius figured that meant Stevie warranted a push...meaning he would be winning matches and therefore taking fewer beating and having less opportunities to sell, so that died out pretty quick. It's a catch-22, you like the guy and he's talented but he's such a good enhancement talent that you hate to push him out of that slot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2008 It's a catch-22, you like the guy and he's talented but he's such a good enhancement talent that you hate to push him out of that slot. In the old days a guy like that would be put in a tag team to play face in peril and let a young guy get over doing the comebacks. For example they could have put Stevie and Colt Cabana together. It's a shame that they don't put any effort into tag wrestling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
