Ant Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Although not full-proof, in my view a good indicator of the "superstars" that will be future endeavoured in the post WM cull is who isn't on the European tour.  Using Wikipedia's list of current male wrestlers I believe the following are not on the current European tour, so any of them are fair game in my eyes. For the avoidance of doubt I've excluded guys like Undertaker from list - he might not be appearing since Mania, but he's safe as houses, innit.  So any of the following could go in my view, and perhaps a few others (The Uso's and Tyson Kidd probably aren't taking out new mortgages as we speak):  David Hart Smith  David Otunga  Goldust  The Great Khali  Husky Harris  Mark Henry  Mason Ryan  Michael McGillicutty  Michael Tarver  Skip Sheffield  Ted DiBiase  William Regal  Yoshi Tatsu  Zack Ryder  Brodus Clay  Chavo Guerrero  Curt Hawkins  Hornswoggle  JTG  Trent Barreta  Tyler Reks  What do you guys reckon?

TildeGuy~! Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I'm pretty sure that David Otunga, Goldust, The Great Khali, Husky Harris, Mark Henry, Mason Ryan, Michael McGillicutty, Skip Sheffield, Ted DiBiase, William Regal, Yoshi Tatsu, Brodus Clay, Chavo Guerrero and Hornswoggle are safe.

Paid Members LaGoosh Posted April 15, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted April 15, 2011 If Zack Ryder goes I will cry myself to sleep. He's popular with the lockerroom so hopefully he is spared. That guy is so much money it's ridiculous. Criminally under-utilised. Â Regal ain't going anywhere and if they haven't got rid of Mark Henry by now they never will. Â Ted Dibase's dad might spare him the chop but they should get rid of him. JTG, Hawkins, Reks, Chavo and David Hart Smith should definitely be kicked to the curb.

Hyperion Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Sure this is 4th time this thread has been done since February, getting huge Deja Vu here. Maybe they'll shock us this year and not have a mass clean out, maybe just cut 2 or 3 guys. Pretty sure Rosa Mendez should be top of that release list imo.

Paid Members mim731 Posted April 15, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted April 15, 2011 I reckon Chavo is safe, job for life status owing to the Eddy connection methinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Mouzone Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I reckon Chavo is safe, job for life status owing to the Eddy connection methinks. Â I agree, as long as Vince is taking care of Vickie, Chavo will probably hang around too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M-Dudz Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Mark Henry is a lifer! And so he should be! Â JTG will be quaking in his boots. As will Reks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I reckon Chavo is safe, job for life status owing to the Eddy connection methinks. Â I agree, as long as Vince is taking care of Vickie, Chavo will probably hang around too. Vickie gets some of the biggest reactions in wrestling. She's not a charity case. And she uses her real name. If WWE sacked her, TNA would snap her up in a heartbeat, and she might be the one that turns the tide. I don't think there's any "taking care of" needed anymore. Â Nobody gives a toss about Chavo, though. He's another one like Scotty, Holly and Venis. Seems like he's got a job for life, but they might get fed up of him eventualy.

Sexy Dad Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I can't see Chavo going anytime soon, I can picture him hanging up the boots in a few years though. He's a good guy to keep around to work with new talent on houseshows, not particularly entertaining for the fans these days though. The lack of exposure so many of the undercarders get really kills the crowd dead at shows when they are pitched against each other. I'd like to see them keep Tyler Reks, he's got a unique look and shouldn't have been fucked off like he has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khali brings in a LOT of money from India so he's safe. Henry will never be fired for some strange reason. New Nexus are back so those guys are safe. Dibiase will stick around due to his dad. Regal is too reliable for good matches (like goldust, at least at house shows). Brodus has just come in and is rolling with ADR, he's safe. Chavo like everyone says will be safe due to Vicky. And finally Hornswoggle, he's safe due to being popular with kids.  Everyone i didnt include in this list i believe will be gone even though my fingers are crossed that Ryder stays. That man is MONEY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazz Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 We should start a petition for WWE NOT to release Ryder. You can see it coming a mile off, but, there is so much love for the guy, hopefully common sense will prevail. Even if he is kept around as a JTTS for a while, then pushed to the moon and headline wrestlemania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Yeah, I meant 'taking care of' in relation to the talk that Vince doesn't pay her much of a wage but sorts out most of her overheads for her. I agree, she's no charity case in front of the camera. I'm just guessing that while Vince is helping her out in her general lifestyle, Chavo is safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninevisions Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 anyone else think that Johnny Curtis will get the boot? how long's it been since he won NXT? and we havent seen him since... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hbk4life Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 The people who came to my mind first were - The Uso's, Rosa Mendez, Trent Barreta, JTG, David Hart Smith, Tyler Reks and Curt Hawkins. Can't say i'd miss any of them. Â I'd be pretty shocked if Regal, Hornswoggle, Henry or Khali were to be released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jaffa Posted April 15, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted April 15, 2011 There is always one release that is a tad mystifying. This year, i'll go with Gail Kim to be released along with Chris Masters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
