With losing HBK, and Taker not working a full schedule + the news that Batista isn't happy and his contract is gonna be coming to an end - WWE doesn't have a large talent pool - especially of star powered name brand wrestlers. Not to mention, it's hard for them to create new stars - so why get rid of Shelton, and not just push the guy?
Also - makes even more sense now to not to another draft, and just merge the companies shows. If not this, put EVERY big star on RAW - especially since Smackdown isn't gonna be seen by as many households with it moving to SyFY.

Not bothered by any to be honest, and really, not even surprised. The only one that surprises me is Shelton. I never really cared for him, but I will admit they grossly underused him.

What the hell, I was just playing SVR '10 earlier and had Shelton win MITB and now this happens. Looks like Charlie Haas got his wish after all and we'll be seeing WGTT on the indies very soon. Mickie is another huge name, not as surprising but sad to see one of the best Woman's wrestler leave the company.

I am REALLY ed off about Shelton going, like what in the , man? He was the best wrestlers on the roster, and had tons of potential. WWE don't give a crap about that, it's all about actors and celebrities nowadays. I mean, instead of pushing guys like him, here they are milking the fact that David Otunga is banging some American Idol reject. Mickie and Katie Lea going is Bullcrap too. Two of the best wrestlers on the diva roster, and yet The Bella Twins, Kelly Kelly, Maryse and Rosa Mendes are STILL on it.

Damn, REALLY gonna miss seeing Mickie every week, let alone how good she is in the ring. She'd be a great investment for TNA. The rest, oh well, it was their time. Shelton is just a damn shame, but its obvious he and Charlie had something brewing, so I dont care at all.

This reminds me of the time Elijah Burke got releases. Sometimes i disagree with WWE but none of us see what goes on behind the scens, Shelton might not have been making enough money for the company and it would only be right to let him go.

I agree with you on The Bella Twins, but Kelly Kelly is getting better, but I don't see her lasting long in the WWE. Rosa should stay a manager as I would like WWE to use managers a lot more. Maryse is the biggest heel diva on Raw, so she won't go for awhile.

NO WAY!!! I was just telling WF member Hellboy at 2 am yesterday that I saw Shelton, Mickie James, and all of the others getting released. Especially Mickie because she has an album coming out.

From Jimmy Wang Yang's Twitter:"3 strikes and your out..I hear Florida is a nice place to visit."Hmmm.Sounds like he failed his 3rd welness test.

If TNA is smart they will try to pick up Mickie James and Shelton Benjamin. They both would be great there.
Im really surprised they would let Mickie James go. Don't the kids love her? AND she can actually wrestle. When I think of WWE Divas, I think of Mickie James. Weird.
Benjamin should have had a championship run a LONG time ago, so his release doesn't surprise me. Although it sucks.
I bet we will get a Funaki Legends figure eventually. Dont see him doing much as a competitor elsewhere.

I'm just speechless that WWE takes someone like Sheamus and slaps a major title around his waist within months...yet plays around with Shelton Benjamin or 8 ing years before firing him...
