WWE has fired Scotty 2 Hotty, Ariel, Nicky (Spirit Squad), Rob Conway, 2 Cold Scorpio, and Vito.
Apparently it's Stephanie McMahon, and not John Laurinitis, making the decisions. Now that he reports directly to her, his influence has pretty much been taken out from underneath him. Personally, I don't like Stephanie all that much. But anything that cancels out Laurinitis can't be bad, right?

Aside from Ariel, it's not like the average fan will even notice them missing. and wwe caters to the average fan.

Ariel shmariel. She's just gothic eye candy.
I'm shocked Scotty finally got fired. I thought he had a job for life at this point ... lol. Laurantis is an idiot as far as talent. It's pretty clear that since JR stepped down from the talent relations or whatever position the hiring has been a lot worse.

Oh, and don't forget Sabu. That's a fairly big deal, but he didn't sound happy... I dunno. RVD is likely gone right away too.

Yeah, I did forget Sabu - but I can understand that, he was being a problem backstage. What the hell did Scotty do? lol

What DID Scotty do, indeed. As in, what did he do of ANY VALUE?

I repeat. What DID Scotty do, of any value, to earn employment for so long?

Acted as a fan favourite jobber who could put on semi-decent matches, whilst making his opponents look good for over five minutes for shows like Velocity and Smackdown?

Then there's Umaga, who can't wrestle worth a damn, won't sell anything short of a Sweet Chin Music, and has zero personality when Estrada isn't around.

Disagree! Case in point: Cena vs Umaga, Royal Rumble. Umaga rocks. Hell, I actually think he's getting the total shaft lately being stuck with the McMahons vs boring Lashley. Now there's a waste of space.

Lashley needs a manager. In OVW he was huge over because he was part of a stable and they didn't push him to the moon right away. When he turned face and broke away from the stable? HUGE. On Smackdown or ECW? He's another big man with some decent wrestling but the personality of a blank sheet of paper.
