I like how that guy, in the process of saying Heath Slater should be cut, said "he's got a great look."

No he doesn't. Nor should he be released.

For Bleacher Report, that list actually was well above average.

The List

David Otunga - sucks, get rid of him and I hope his fat wife chokes on a cracker
Justin Gabriel - WHAT??? 450 splash mother****er! good wrestler, great JTTS
Chris Masters - most improved wrestler in the world over the past few years. Should be pushed, not released.
Santino - WHAT??? great hiptoss, is actually entertaining.
Khali - ldo, my 4 year-old niece can tell he sucks.
McGilihennig - ok yeah, kinda. has never done anything interesting that I recall. if he's not going to do a Perfect, Jr. gimmick, **** him.
Kozlov - whatever. is he even still on the roster?
Tyler Reks - Now we're worried about kicking halfway decent guys off Superstars?
Drew McIntyre - WHAT???
Heath Slater - I recently compared his spinebuster to Arn ****ing Anderson ffs.

People who really need gotten rid of:
Michael Cole
Jerry Lawler
HHH
Hornswoggle
Rosa
Eve
Melina
Alicia Fox

Primo, if he's still there
Dig Chavo up from wherever he's hiding so they can release him again
Tamina
The Usos

and finally

Ted Dibiase

They are a tag team, WWE has nothing for them.

They've been trying to get them over.

I refuse to believe that the tag division will never be anything again. I want to believe.

This.

I've been really happy with Usos since they've, you know, been allowed to wrestle more than 3 minutes.

Literally LOLed at that.

Disagree with you on Usos and Dibiase, but I think the rest of the analysis is spot on.

I'm too big of a Curt Hennig mark to give in right now and want them to get rid of Joe Hennig. I want to think that there's huge potential there.

That's part of how I've remained on his side; I just don't even acknowledge his WWE name.

Lol at Justin Gabriel's release. Second on the list and i knew it was a joke.

Lol at Masters being good on ROH.

Santino is one of the biggest draws the WWE has and a comic act that is uber over is never getting released.

McGillycutty needs a new name and a new gimmick. His ring work is good enough for a green worker.

Drew McIntire is in need of a story, but i dont think anyone doubts he is at least an upper midcard talent and earns his spot. At this point im wondering if Bourne isnt next on the list.

Oh, Slater, another i disagree with. "He has a great look, a good skill set and nowhere to go." Wtf does that even mean? His time in the company wont be long, but he gets a shocking amount of heat for some reason and that has to count for something.

So yeah, the guy who wrote that list is a "senior analyst" and im seriously wondering if he has the slightest idea. Fwiw i didnt nitpick Khali and Koslov, i disagree with both of those two, but from a business perspective and not a talent perspective. Khali is terrible, but India is a huge market and there isnt anyone who can take his place.

Curt Hawkins has a job. Seriously, the guy from Ryder and Hawkins has a job! As does Golddust, JTG, Primo, Yoshi Tatsu and Trent Baretta. Im not even sure who Trent Baretta is. All of which are literally going no where, are never on TV, sell no merchandise and seemingly only fill in when its cheaper than hiring a local jobber and id fire them faster than some guys like Masters who was named and i would also cut.

While we are there, does the WWE really need 16 divas? They have one belt and its only ever going to be contested by around 6 of them. 1 is even Kong who didnt get released. Melina, Eve, Rosa and Gail Kim may as well get cut. Gail isnt ever getting pushed and it seems she wants to leave (and GL to her in TNA again, seriously), Rosa is terrible, Eve is the definition of not over and Melina seems to be mostly kept around to keep Morrison (and half the lockerrom) happy. Id drop Maryse too, her fake tits look weird and she doesnt have much to do with Kelly Kelly covering the role of blonde barbie. Id probably drop one of the Bella Twins, but somehow book matches so it seems like they are both still there. Or both, cos tbh, they add little to the show and twin magic is ****ing stupid.

I think some of the broadcast team can go too. WWE doesnt need four backstage interviewers and it doesnt need 3 man commentary teams imo.

I think the 3-man Smackdown commentary team works. Hearing Cole bag on Booker really is pretty entertaining, but then you still need a straight man in Matthews. Get Cole off of Raw though. Or Lawler. Definitely don't continue with this current 3-man team on Mondays.

lol Bleacher Report. Some of their updates are OK sometimes but **** like these lists are universally horrible. Justin Gabriel should be pushed to the moon not released.

re: Japan this guy's channel has a ton of great very recent stuff. A pretty awesome strong style match: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndJVE...el_video_title

SummerFest rumored card

Spoiler:
WWE Championship Unification Match
John Cena vs. CM Punk

No Holds Barred Match for the World Heavyweight Title
Christian (c) vs. Randy Orton

WWE Divas Title Match
Kelly Kelly (c) vs. Beth Phoenix

Sheamus vs. Mark Henry (Will be announced on SmackDown)

According to our WWE sources, the following matches are also very likely to appear on the card:

The Miz vs. Rey Mysterio
Alberto Del Rio vs. Kofi Kingston
Dolph Ziggler vs. Alex Riley
Ezekiel Jackson vs. Cody Rhodes
Daniel Bryan vs. Wade Barrett


Looks pretty solid to me, nothing really stands out besides Punk/Cena (which will obv. be a letdown from MITB but should still be entertaining). Very solid undercard imo.
