Report: WWE Roster Cuts Expected After The New Year

PWInsider.com is reporting that WWE will most likely be making main roster talent cuts after the start of the new year. We have been reporting for several weeks now that major changes are expected to be made to both the ECW and the Smackdown shows, so the roster cuts are expected to coincide with those changes. No word yet on how the cuts may or may not effect the Raw brand, or what names are likely to be cut at this time.

There's going to be some sad sons-of-guns in January....

hopefully they cut Shelton and Carlito. they have no use for either of them.

I would say Yoshi Tatsu but after seeing him on Raw, i like him. I might actually watch ECW tomorrow.

why would they cut Shelton? according to ppl on here hes the next big thing since Brock Lesnar lmfao

SHELTON'S THE GOLD STANDARD! DON'T DARE MENTION THE WORDS 'SHELTON' AND 'RELEASE' AGGGAAIIIINNNN!!!!

OH NOEZ

That sucks. No one likes to see anyone lose a job.

the people here dont work for WWE

according to WWE he's just that black dude with the Sisqo like hairdo that is floating around the midcard.

WWe has nothing for him..cut the cord already.

i was hoping for a Maria cut....but her winning the poll has put her back up there in the title pic >.<

Goodbye to

-Jesse (He is doing absolutely NOTHING!!!)

-Cryme Tyme (Losing Eve and still doing nothing? Goodbye!)

-Santino (Possibility)

-Dolph Ziggler ( I would be PISSED!!! But there is a chance WWE will can him)

-Primo (Go to ECW now or else you’re done for)

-Carlito ( A push seems to be on the horizon so who knows)

-Charlie Haas ( They might release him after all)

-Jimmy Wang Yang (Dead weight)

-Koslov (Have you seen how he jobbed to Khali? He’s done for)

-Jack Swagger (I’ll be so pissed off, words cannot describe but where has he been?)

-Paul Burchill ( I think this time he’s really gone and I’ll be sad)

-MVP (Probably the only “WTF” on my list but what has WWE done for him on Raw?)

-Curt Hawkins ( You’re not Ryder! WOO WOO WOO YOU KNOW IT)

-DJ Gabriel (Good day mate)

LOL@ all the deadweight!

Now onto the deeverz!

Realistically Speaking? Only a few might get fired and they are

-The Bellas ( I love them but they are just going through the motions and doing nothing)

-Eve Torres (If they fire Masters then she may go with him but I doubt it)

-Rosa Mendes (I honestly dunno but she is expendable)

-Kelly Kelly ( I don’t give a shit how “over” she is, she is expendable but Vince is a perv so this ho is staying)

-Gail Kim ( She may be the shocking release from the divas but again doubt it)

-Jillian (If they do fire her, Expect to see her in TNA before Mania lol)

-Katie Lea (This one is tough, either they fire her with Paul or let her loose in the division. She would be great with the British Invasion though)

-Alicia Fox (They need a capable heel on Raw and jobber Jillian wont do the trick, Maryse sucks so yea A fox wont go anywhere)

-Layla ( For once I can say she is safe<33333, seriously on SD she is pretty much booked as a big -deal, quickly entering this “mean girl” type deal with Michelle. I don’t want to jinx Layla though so who knows.)

The Bellas, Rosa, Jillian, Katie are my diva predictions

They better not cut Helms.

MVP and Kozlov arent going anywhere, neither are Kelly and Gail

usually they wait until spring to do this, wonder why they might be doing so early.

Benjamin, Carlito, Primo, Wang Yang, Khali, Bourne, Swagger and Slam Master J.

I reckon those are the most likely.

Actually, WWE is starting to care about the jobbers. I see Primo, Carlito, Benjamin, Bourne and Swagger staying.

since when? Primo hasnt been used in a while, neither has Swagger

Swagger, Dolph and Benjamin may not be being pushed as they once where, but even so releasing them would be stupid, Dolph and Swagger anyway, as lets face it, just cos they lost faith now, dont mean they wont get it back.
and the fuck. Shelton JUST had a ECW title match and your trying to tell me they are gonna cut him back just over a month after. dont talk stupid

Primo, Carlito, and the Bellas plz

Bellas most definitely. Idc about Primo. Give Carlito one more shot.

I don't think the Bellas can last another year just being useless b******

Oh no no no lol I highlited part of LL's post and made the bolded part bigger lol

Sounds the same to me

Well, actually, Primo's been used every week for the past three months, if you pay attention.

lol, yeah, being a jobber counts as being used

Yeah, Ik.

He's been used so much, I think they've ran out of things to do with him...

Primos talked about the lack of being used...hes unhappy...

the biggest things thats happened to him since they decided to cut a potetnial colons feud, was when he was thrown off the stage by Orton a few week back

Well the thing is that Primo, Swagger, Ziggler, MVP and Masters have been on WWE Superstars more than anyone else, they have to have people for that show if they want the show.

i love how they hyped the show as being everyone, yet after so long they chose to turn into just a slightly better verison of heat, with the occasional uppermidacarder appearing

There are quite a few I want to see go but I dont think they are.

If they cut anyone good Ill be ticked off.

I like Khali atm because his music is nice and he looks funny dancing. his "brother" Ranjin Singh makes me laugh too.
