James, Benjamin, Katie Lee Burchill, and Jimmy Wang Yang are the big names that have been released.

Ah wow. James is a big deal. Benjamin is a decent size release and I could care less about Wang Yang lol.

James and Benjamin will both be heading to TNA I would expect. Benjamin would excel in the X division.

Shelton has been my favorite wrestler since he WWE debut. I'm in utter shock that he was released. I can't believe Mickie is gone as well.

James will be TNA's newest "Knockout" for sure. I must say I find that title to be really cheesy. Worse than Divas.

I could never get sold on Benjamin. I find him rather uncharismatic. I usually switched the channel when he came on.

James is working on a country singing album so she may not be going to TNA. Shelton will go there for sure because WWE dropped the ball on him too many times.

Benjamin is a main-eventer in TNA with a good gimmick...

Oh noes, not Jimmy! :-/

Interesting fact, Jimmy Wang Yang has a training center in Cincinnati.

The big question is... when will Santino Marella be released?

^^ Not anytime soon. He is good on the mic and if they would actually let him wrestle he is pretty decent in the ring. He is one of the few comedic elements WWE has so it's unlikly he goes anywhere anytime soon.
