He should have saved that for an angle. An old-schooler like The Undertaker should know that.

Kane vs. Undertaker - Hair for Hair Match. Oh, wait...

So the WWE is apparently doing another talent clear out. Melina, Koslov, DH Smith, and Chris Masters have all been released. Actually a bit disappointed to see Masters go.

Gail Kim has apparently been released though at her request. Supposedly she eliminated herself from the Diva's battle royal garbage on Monday to see if anyone noticed. No one did so she decided it didn't matter and quit.

Now that they've "pushed" Ryder, we can probably expect to see him dumped too.

remember when they were pushing Koslov, thats all i remember reading was how Steph wanted him to the top.

Steph wanted to push Brakkus straight to the top at one point, too. He even went on the road as part of Evolution. I think it was Brakkus, but either way it was some clunky stiff with big muscles.

Steph has an eye for talent.

 

[EmpireWF]

not brakkus lmao. Brakkus was around in 1997 (they were gonna push him I think, he got hurt, never made it...ended up in ECW0.

You're thinking of the kid oh what the fuck was his name....he was jacked up but he couldn't work a lick. She wanted to push him to the moon...long story short, he quit wrestling and is now in real estate.

UPDATE.....his name was Daniel Rodimer! From an old observer:

From that 2004 show [[Tough Enough]], the guy the company was highest on, Daniel Rodimer, who Stephanie McMahon had tabbed to be the company’s next superstar and a tag team partner of Edge & Randy Orton, saying he would be in the “Diesel role” in the group, actually never made it to what was expected. He was very successful in real estate in Tampa, and, not making in wrestling what he made before wrestling, asked for his release in 2007.

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Stephanie has an awful eye for talent.

To be fair, I think HHH has the ability to actually see some talent in people, at least to a higher level than stephanie.

for those of you intrested 100% shoot, heard this "promo" 100 times

 

[Bigpapa42]

Thats priceless.

To add a note, she was apparently told by the road agent to "get eliminated quickly". So she rolled out under the ropes as soon as it started. No one noticed or cared.

Not even the WWE higher ups can stomach their own product.

what i dont get is why they feel the need to do these 2-5 min Diva matches, Video packages of photo shoots, crowd reaction competions, build up to a match on the PPV and make people want to pay to see it. while still getting in your TNA on tv. still keep them on the house show curcit just stop recyling the same every diva in a tag match week after week

And not a single one of these girls could draw flies if they were made of shit. They are so generic. The heels are pretty and act like a bitch. The faces are pretty and act like your big sister. They each take turns with the title(s), so nobody ever gets over because they are all presented as equal. I really don't understand the point of employing so many of them. They really only need 3 or 4 per brand, with one "star" on each. Then just bring in new girls when those girls get stale. Why employ 15 of these people? I couldn't pick AJ or whatever her name is out of a lineup. Its a waste of money.

I think the WWE blew it big time with Vladimir Kozlov. I thought they could have done a lot more with him. The stupid comedy act with Santino was moronic.
I never really got the whole Chris Masters thing, yeah he's got a great body ... but he never got over.
Melina - zzzzzzzz
Gail Kim - beautiful, but zzzzzz
DH Smith - Needs to be Harry Smith and get to Japan or something. He still may succeed.
