    Only one I feel sorry for is Shelton Benjamin, he had so much talent, just never got over.

    Yeah they probobly could use him, but you would have thought they'd take Charlie Haas as well.

    I feel sorry for Mike Knox. They should've used him as a champion of some kind.

    Mickie James! She got released? Late to the topic, but wow. She ruled because she was from my home state and billed from my hometown! lol Also liked her because she was a good female wrestler.

    I liked her because she looked more real than the others, they all seem to have too much surgery, but anyways. Her wieght gain was an issue, shes persuing things outside of WWE which management hates and she was late serveral times on the European tour causing the bus to wait and make everyone late. The tardiness seems to be what pushed her over the edge to be fired.

    I liked that about her too, just like with Lita in the past. For modern-day wrestlers, seems those are the only two female ones I didn't mind too much along with the scary Chyna.

    That aside, guess that does make sense. Just like with any job, being late isn't a good thing.

    This is the best thing to happen to Shelton Benjamin's career since he was originally called up to WWE. Its a blessing in disguise for him I believe.

    AbsoF8ckinglutely!

    Vince McMahon lost all of his original talent mostly due to the fact that they all died, and very few of them were from natural causes. Those who are still around, retired.

    Curt Hennig - Dead from drug use

    Elizabeth Hulette - Dead due to manslaughter by a fellow WWF wrestler she was staying with just after she divorced Randy Poffo and broke up with Terry Bollea. This wrestler who did the manslaughter did prison time. This wrestler provided her with drugs and alcohol which she took on top of her own prescription drugs.

    J.Y.D. - Dead after falling asleep at the wheel

    Big Boss Man - dead from Heart Attack (no word if it was natural or not)

    Jake The Snake - retired after a long bout with Vince and a battle with alcohol addiction

    Bobby The Brain - Retired and suffering from medical problems having to do with his jaw.

    Andre The Giant - Dead, natural causes

    Powers Of Pain - ?

    Fuji - Dead, natural causes

    Big John Studd - Dead, natural causes

    Jim Hellwig (Ultimate Warrior), Bret Hart, Jim Anvil Neidhart, Demolition, Rockers, and a long list of other talent had their careers derailed by Vince's dirty schemes but they all walked away with a good profit due to the battles they put up against Vince behind closed doors.

    Dino Bravo, dead - natural causes

    Scary Sherri (Sensational Sherri), Dead - drug use

    Two of Vince's wrestlers committed suicide and one of the two took their family with them.

    Terry Bollea, semi retired and divorced thanks to Vince. (Terry publicly says he and Vince are good friends, but that's all show for the public.

    The list goes on, and Vince should be ashamed for what he's done to his talent and their lives all in the name of corporate greed. I'm willing to bet that those who died from natural causes could have had more time on this earth if not for the pressures Vince put on them.

    You're right, JRS! I was thinking of Gorilla Monsoon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEf87iR-7w4

    What else contributed to me being wrong was information from someone I once knew from awhile back who was an industry insider who said Heenan died. Oops!
