Former TNA star Sonny Siaki has been released from his WWE developmental contract.
He was recently working for the Florida Championship Wrestling developmental territory after being moved from Deep South Wrestling when that closed down. In FCW, he was in a tag team with Afa Jr. called 'The Samoan Fight Club'. However, Afa Jr. was moved to Ohio Valley Wrestling this week to do a tag team with former WWE star Rosey called 'Sons of Samoa', so well, that left Siaki on his own. Siaki worked a few WWE house shows earlier in the year, but apparently officials weren't impressed enough to call him up the main roster. During Armando Estrada's hiatus this spring/summer, there were rumors of calling Siaki up to the ECW roster along with some other developmental talent to form a faction with Estrada as the manager. But then Estrada was made the General Manager of ECW, and those plans were pretty much called off. Siaki had been under contract to WWE since December 2005.
WWE has yet to confirm the release on their official website. They may not even acknowledge it.

Good. Hopefully this will prevent them from releasing someone who's actually worthwhile.

I was actually looking forward to him getting the call up eventually. He always felt like he would make a good WWE guy during the early days of TNA. He was good on the mic etc.

Siaki was good, acted a little too much like heel Rock but he had a good look and was pretty good in the ring too. Suck he was released, won wonder if he's still on good terms with TNA.

Yeah, I liked him when he was with TNA. This sucks. I really anted to see if he would get called up, but..
I hope TNA picks him up again though, and actually uses him.
Bad move on WWE's part, imo.
