    Umaga Released

    According to WWE.com.

    Quite a shocker, sure we'll hear more on the reasons in the next few days.

    So, Umaga and Joe as the Nation of Violence in TNA then?

    I imagine this is either Wellness related or he was caught shagging Linda, because he was getting a pretty strong push until now. Very strange.

    Where did you hear that?



    Quite a shocker IMO. Always thought it was a good gimmick and he was used well most of the time.

    hadn't Umaga already failed two wellness tests?


    Umaga and Kennedy would in theory (not in practice, because the company is crap) be very good additions to TNA as they don't fit in to the has been/never have been category, they were in theory on the tier bellow the main event in WWE, and could have been elevated at any time, if TNA build them there they could get decent top level stars out of them. They won't of course..

    Agreed - major surprise, especially as he'd been pushed well opposite Punk since his return.

    TNA gets another boost...more's the pity for the home-grown guys. We need a third company now to start spreading out the talent. That or the older guys to start actually stepping aside (I'm looking at you in your hospital bed, Batista - At least taker KNOWS to take time out ever so often!)

    Apparently, WWE are releasing people when they fail the wellness tests, so then they don't have to announce the failures.

    The creative team have apparently got a few names not to put on the RAW Show next Monday.

    Well they do have the Wellness announcing coming up.

    I dont know though. Read too many conflicting reports.

    The truth will out I suppose.

    Very sad to see him go though. He was one of my favourites I am honest. Surprising as it took me a long time to warm to im after his debut after Mania 22.
