Monty Brown - after leaving WWE for the family issues, I haven't heard anything wrestling related about him. Last I heard, he's a personal trainer.
Matt Bentley - read he was semi-retired from wrestling, and performs in a band.
Lance Hoyt - working in Japan
Shark Boy - my guess is he's bouncing around the indies
Amazing Red - same as Shark Boy
The Naturals - Andy Douglas is retired, and the last I saw of Chase Stevens, he was wrestling in Showtime Allstar Wrestling, where he apparently still competes. Just before Douglas' retirement, the team broke up and they feuded in S.A.W.
Elix Skipper - Not a clue
Rhino - He appeared a few times in ROH as one of Prince Nana's hired goons in the Embassy. He then appeared at the end of the recent Resistance Pro Wrestling show. After Harry Smith became the first RPW Champion, Rhino came out:

Lance Hoyt wrestled for WWE as Vance Archer from 2009-2010 before being released. He was in NJPW around the end of 2011.
Monty Brown wrestled for WWE as Marcus Cor Von from 2006-2007. He took time off for family reasons and was eventually let go.
Matt Bentley appeared on TNA in 2011 when they were doing the contract thing that Aries won. He's either retired or semi-retired.
Not sure where Sharkboy is at. Couldn't care less as I always hated the gimmick.
Amazing Red parted ways with TNA in August of last year, probably doing indy's.
Assuming The Naturals are doing indy's as well. Chase Stevens was on ECW in 2008 getting squashed by Swagger and Knox.
Elix Skipper was released in 2008 and I haven't heard anything of him since then
Rhino parted ways with TNA in 2010 and had a very short run with ROH in 2011

Honestly, most of those guys that you just mentioned are from the days when TNA was pure gold. I miss guys like Monty Brown, Elix Skipper, The Naturals (well just all of the above).
Makes me want to go bust out some old DVDs.

Elix Skipper was a ridiculously entertaining X-Division guy. The World X Cup stuff in 04 with him Sabin, Jerry Lynn, and Christopher Daniels was so awesome. I got to see them work live against Team Canada in 04 at one of the weeklies back in 04 and I just loved that group of guys.
I didn't realize his son was murdered though, that's awful. I miss a lot of those guys but I'm not sure how well too many of them would fit in with the current product. Amazing Red could really come back at any time though imo. Monty Brown used to make me laugh my ass off, I do miss that guy.

Some of those names could still fit IMO. Monty Brown is one guy out of that bunch that I probably miss the most. He was built up to be TNA's "next big thing" in the early days. I remember at Final Resolution 2005 I thought he was going to get his chance to take the ball and run with it.
However, after that it seemed like he was just in the background.

Man I thought Monty Brown/Marcus Cor Von was going to be huge in WWE. Seemed like he was on to bigger things before he had to leave. What a shame since he never got his just due in TNA either.

Shortly before Matt Bentley's one-off for the X-Division thing, he was working at a Casino as a security guard in my town, his birth-town, but he doesn't work there since he went back for the one-off.

Chase Stevens has been working at my local indy here in West Virginia. He is actually quite the fantastic heel.
