    Alex Riley be that guy who wins the "How the heck did he manage to be employed this long?" award. Hornswoggle being the runner up (and i believe that he had one strike left on the wellness programme)

    With WB they basically went "Eff it, that guy is gone anyway".

    Cameron had nuclear heat on her according to the dirt sheets. So no surprise there

    El Torito - Meh
    Santino - Retired one or two years ago. No big loss.
    Zeb - He hated the travel

    Some rumours are saying that Orton could be done as well.

    I could see Tamina go. Her last name wont do her any favors. And WWE have fired injured people before
    Alicia Fox should be gone. Mark Henry maybe. Contract is coming up and they havent had anything he could do for a while now.
    Ryback, Titus and Swagger. First two are in the dog house and the third have been treading waters for at least a year now.

    Speaking of Barrett, im rewatching the nexus making their debut in 2010, damn that was awesome. Could have been great if cena didn't bury them like he did

    didnt even know he was still on the roster

    I thought Santino was already done in WWE due to a neck injury.

    I doubt they get rid of Orton he's still a big deal in the company but the rest of those names are more than likely out the door. I think somebody on here that Titus had a job with the University of Miami when his contact was up.

    Didn't care for Sandow. Good comedic character with the Mizdow thing but otherwise not a big loss.

    The biggeat loss so far is Barrett. I got a feeling he will be outshined before the day is over.

    WWE.com is dropping em.

    Im thinking Mark Henry, he serves no purpose but as a long time guy (20 years believe it or not) he might be safe. They could always transition him elsewhere.

    Might get one or two more middling guys too.

    Henry is a safe pick. As i said above his contract is coming up for renewal. And he haven't done jack in quite a while. Henry is also 44 years old and he have been around for 20 years now. I think only Taker, HHH and Kane have been around longer of those that are active

    Most of these people had to see it coming.

    Fandango, Social Outcasts, Goldust, Breeze all making it to TV regularly now to serve as jobbers.

    Darren Young appeared on TV out of nowhere this week or he'd be on the chopping block too b

    Which means the "Superstars" talent is up for release.

    Im interested in seeing if Sin Cara or Jack Swagger manage to survive.
