WWE Talent Cuts

WWE fired a few members of their talent roster yesterday.

Below are their names and some notes on their departures.

Shad Gaspard
Hasn't been used much since the company broke up the Cryme Tyme tag team.

Luke Gallows
The Straight Edge Society faction disbanded and that was that for the former Festus.

Big Dick Johnson
This was the fat guy who would show up in a thong and do a stripper routine for Vince McMahon's idea of humour. I'm also sure he was one of the writers so his creative input may be missed more than those sick visuals of a obese man dancing.

Caylen Croft
Was part of the Dude Busters tag team but hasn't been used lately. I'm not surprised that a tag team wrestler would be released because WWE hasn't cared for tag teams in a long while but I would lean on this being a mildly surprising release.

Vance Archer
Lance Hoyt left TNA and came to World Wrestling Entertainment repackaged as 'Vance Archer'. I remember his stuff from TNA more than anything he did in WWE. And considering I hardly watch TNA, that says enough.

Tiffany
I am not surprised with this one. Tiffany got into an argument with her husband - Drew McIntyre - at the hotel they were staying in this past summer. She ended up getting arrested and was suspended by the company. Her image was then removed from the start of the TV shows so the decision to release her was made there and then regardless of whether she was charged or not.

Jillian Hall
There is only so much a Britney Spears/Brooke Hogan impersonator who can't sing can do. I wouldn't be surprised if TNA pick her up to feud with Brooke Hogan. I'm not kidding.
