Sofia Cortez Released! Sofiacortez

http://www.diva-dirt.com/2012/08/11/sofia-cortez-released/

Former WWE Tough Enough contestant Sofia Cortez, real name Ivelisse Velez, has revealed that she has been released by WWE.

Writing on Twitter, she said: “I, as well, have been released by WWE. Sorry my #Soljas….”

Velez, an experienced independent wrestler before joining WWE, rose to fame last year on the USA Network revival of Tough Enough hosted by Stone Cold Steve Austin and featuring Trish Stratus as a trainer. Velez was eliminated after suffering a groin injury, but was later signed by WWE.

Most recently, she appeared on the newly rebranded NXT defeating Paige in the first Divas match on the new version.

Teary Eyed

Was anyone a fan of Sofia from Tough Enough and or FCW/NXT?

Some more on the story from the dirtsheets...

http://www.pwpix.net/pwpixnews/headlines/346785443.php


- As noted before, WWE has released former Tough Enough competitor Ivelisse Vélez, who appeared in Florida Championship Wrestling as Sofia Cortez.

Word coming out of developmental is that Ivelisse received rave reviews in the ring from some but she had an attitude problem. F4Wonline.com reports that sources say she thought she was better than what the trainers thought of her. Ivelisse had apparently made noise about how she should be working on WWE's main roster.

Yeah Idk what she was thinking you have to be very cautious for the first couple years..

It is a shame because I think she would have been on the main roster if she had just shut her mouth.

Hopefully TNA scoops her up.

That's why people with personalities, like everyone on this forum, wouldn't be able to handle the backstage craze.

It's worth noting that Mickie, Melina, & Beth didn't make noise about being in Developmental for a long time, and they wound up with a combined 15 Women's & Divas Championships. And, no one can say that they, especially Mickie & Melina, lacked personalities or didn't speak their minds.

Also, remember Luke, Mr. "I was on Tough Enough so I should be on the main roster and getting top pay, right away." Weird how the first one eliminated on the show is now the last one there, and the one who made it to the main roster. I guess Naomi kept her in line.

Poor Luke should have won and should be in the mid card atm..

And yeah Ariane sure has stuck around longer than I think anyone could have envisioned after her elimination from Tough Enough..

Wasn't the reason Luke didn't win was because his erotic gay wrestling he did?
As far this girl goes this to me I honestly don't care for at all they got plenty of other women on the roster who I feel are much better than her anyways.And Off topic the hype for this chick Paige is REALLY annoying.

I guess although he was never naked whereas lots of divas/superstars have been naked in one way or another and kept/gotten a job..

As for the hype for Paige she deserves it.

She's the future and I can't wait til she is on the main roster..

This chick Paige? Seriously? She is the future of women's wrestling. Today, if she were called up to the main roster, she could out wrestle almost every one of the women currently there. At 19, she has got so much talent. In my opinion, there isn't enough hype for her.

Luke didn't want to work his way up. He thought he should have had a main roster spot straight out of Tough Enough.

The winners of the first two Tough Enough seasons got on the main roster straight off... and then faded into obscurity. Winning Tough Enough was the high point of their careers. John of Many Last Names who won the third season spent time in OVW, and became the biggest success in the history of TE.

Yeah, I will give you Natalya being better....and Beth is probably as well. But that is it. While Eve may be one of the better wrestlers on the Diva roster, I personally think she isn't anywhere near Paige's level. Regardless of the women on the main roster, Paige is the best thing WWE has in developmental. They need to cherish her talent and not waste it.

http://www.lordsofpain.net/news/wwe/Ivelisse_Velez_Disputes_Having_An_Attitude_Problem_Says_She_Was_Screwed_By_WWE.html

Ivelisse Vélez (a/k/a Sofia Cortez), who was released from her WWE developmental contract late last week, is disputing reports attributed to F4WOnline.com that her termination stemmed from a perceived "attitude problem." Dave Meltzer stated on Wrestling Observer Radio late Saturday that according to sources in Florida Championship Wrestling, Vélez believed her talent level did not correspond with her position in the organization and had been vocal about not being promoted to the main roster. The Puerto Rican grappler took to Twitter to dispute the online claims, which she labeled as "lies."

"It amazes me & breaks my <3 to have people says lies about me. Im 1 of the most humble person you'll ever meet. I & my people know #DaTrut," Vélez wrote Sunday. "So for the record: #No I DONT have an attitude or ego problem. #No Im NOT going to go on a rant & bad mouth @WWE. But #Yes I got screwed."

She continues, "Regardless though.. I am still endlessly grateful for all opportunities trusted upon me by @WWE during my time there. #CaseClosed."

Vélez also said her message in Spanish: "Clarifico: #No No tengo problemas de actitud o ego. #No No divulgare nada negativo sobre @WWE . Pero #Si Fue una injusticia hacia mi. Sea lo que sea.. Aun estoy mil veces agradecida por todas las oportunidades que @WWE confio en mi. #CasoCerrado."

She also re-tweeted a message stating, "I dont believe you had an attitude. I believe is that you were confident in your abilities and wanted to prove yourself."

Vélez reiterated her stance on being "screwed" by WWE to fellow firee A.W., who too was released by the organization last week. She wrote to him, "I got screwed too bro. #IFeelYaPain."

Not tryna go off topic again but I wanted to respond to what shimmer mark said.I feel like Natayla is the best WWE Diva/Female wrestler as of now.She has the total package the looks,Talent,personality and someone who could play there role well little girls would love to look up to natayla.When she had that farting gimmick she turned it into a negative to a positive like the segment she had with Eve on SD.And as for Eve she could Be Turing into the next Trish a model to wrestler she at this point Is now official IMO a veteran in the ring and could have a good match with a few divas who are less talented like Kelly.She could play a great heel and an ok babyface shes not there all the way but she gets better and better every step of the way.As for Beth she needs some new moves and needs a new finisher she's been "the Glamazon" for years and it's Boring now.I respect her as a wrestler but she is not one of my favorites.As for Paige I feel like its way to early to judge her I wanna see what she can do in Divas Wrestling now Women's Wrestling I wanna see her play a character a gimmick or something.You can be one of the best wrestlers in the world and still be bad at playing gimmicks or a character.
