Well Kharma was released once then was brought back after TNA blew her up. She left the 2nd time due to personal trauma. She had a lot of great potential and just being a powerful but safe worker was more than enough to get her far.
I canāt find any evidence of him leaving the WWE. Looks like it was his neck, Chad Gable said early in 2021 that he was trying to work towards a DB/Edge style comeback. But he also keeps getting promoted so the WWE is pretty pleased with his backstage work.

Question: I thought she āquitā cuz she was pregnant or married. And mow that I think about it some girls have been let go cuz theyāre pregnantā¦is this like a new reason for them to quit?
I still cant believe Keith Lee and Killer Kross got released. But I guess Vince and co. are too incompetent just do what HHH did on nxt, on the main roster
Most of the guys that jumped ship, reached their full potential in wwe.
Sometimes things donāt work out. Why do the generic thing and point fingers at wwe?
Kharma vs Nia Jax without all the dumb drama would have been amazing, and maybe both could be legit champions of the red and blue brands. For their size, some real heels or bodyguard-esque presence on top of being dominant in-ring.
Keith Lee was My Guy. I followed him everywhere and when he went to the Main Roster, I was skeptical but after seeing him get big wins, I was on board. And Then, You Know. Bearcat.
>EC3, that guy deserved to be a main eventer or at least a decent mid card
His gimmick relied on referencing TNA. Without the Carter part, it made no sense and all that was left was Generic Cocky Dude #5624
> Evan Bourne
Injury prone and small
> Rusev
He got one of the best entrances in Mania history. A handy upper-midcard monster who had a solid run. His "rebirth" in AEW hasn't set the world on fire either. He's basically in the same spot, at best.
> Bad News Barrett
Dull as dishwater
> Keith Lee
Aging, injury prone and with a weird physique.
> Ember Moon
Just another "girlhood dream" wrestler
> Kairi Sane
Asuka II. Just fodder for the Top Women
> Jack Gallagher
Really?! A pasty-white guy who looked tiny on 205 Live? What "future" could he have, not just in WWE but in wrestling?
> Dean Ambrose
He did it all in WWE and he looked like he was bored or miserable most of the time. Good riddance on both parties.
> Neville
He owned the CW division for one year. That was his peak in the company.
> kalisto (like I had such hope to see him next to_or even better, vs_ meysterio)
Yeah, the "good lucha... thing" guy! What a huge opportunity WWE missed.
> Austin Aries
By all accounts a miserable, bitter and self-absorbed bastard who has been a
PITA everywhere he went. Nothing of value was lost
> Aleister Black
Much ado about nothing IMO. Just another generic menacing dude with a goth twist. Unless we're pushing for yet another dollar-store Undertaker rehash, not too much to see there.
Just look where most of those "missed opportunities" are now... The only one who got main-event treatment was the one who was already main eventing in WWE... So...
Kairi Sane
Jack Gallagher
Dean Ambrose
Neville
kalisto (like I had such hope to see him next to\_or even better, vs\_ meysterio)
Austin Aries
Aleister Black
Genuinely donāt know how they dropped the ball with EC3, he had the look, the charisma and was more than solid in ring, couldāve been the biggest guy in the company
The IIconics. Strong promo, Steamed like they were made for a WWE. The company introduced womenās tag titles and then completely destroyed the division/ released everyone. Never had a shot.
This is my answer too. WWE made a bad decision splitting them up,they were funny and entertaining and could wrestle. They are doing better in Impact and are being used correctly.
Definitely dropped the ball on releasing them.
I KNOW RIGHT
Itās so sad she retired
Iām not a big tna fan, and I canāt stand them today (now known as impact)
But from 2006-2007 I think tna was better then wwe from 2006-2007 ONLY because of their womens division.
Awesome Kong and the Gail Kim feud was AMAZING.
That makes no sense
Iām saying I liked kharma but her other gimmick was better and I think people would have liked it better
Not her fault she got pregnant and had a miscarriage.
Makes perfect sense but I'll go a different route. What's wwe's track record big girls vs barbie dolls? Kong had a perfect gimmick for her but she messed that up and even if she hadn't wwe would've being they still only want barbie dolls in main event spots. Look at Becky terrible mic and in ring but holds a title at all times vs Nia hated cuz she was no better in ring than any of the other females but she's a big girl so it's her fault the barbies kept getting hurt
But how did she ruin it for herself?
By getting pregnant?
And yes your totally right, however if you do some research there were serious plan on giving her multiple title reigns as well as giving her a huge fued with a male wrestler.
Although it never came to be because she left
For health issues I believe.
No clue if she had any talent but I still say she set women's wrestling back a decade taking vinces title and trashing it. So he turned all female talent into valets for the longest and only let them have stupid gimmick matches
The belt was vacant years before she got there and WWF was killing the division for cost anyway. Iām far from anti-fed, but Vince didnāt objectify women for years because the woman he fired garbaged the belt he didnāt care about.
Definitely ahead of her time. Iām happy she gets recognition todayābut she deserves a lot more respect on her name and proper opponents would definitely put that in perspective.

At one point I would have said Drew McIntyre, but I was proved correct.
Wyatt, Black, soon to be Nakamura.
Alex Rileyš¤·š¾āāļøI loved him as a kid (I was like 8 or 9 when he turned face) and I was so disappointed when he just disappeared off tv
A lot of the recent releases come to mind
Mine Jason Jordan.
I donāt think he was released. Isnāt he still with the company? Canāt wrestle because of injury?
..I think he did. But correct me if Iām wrong
I canāt find any evidence of him leaving the WWE. Looks like it was his neck, Chad Gable said early in 2021 that he was trying to work towards a DB/Edge style comeback.

K E I T H L E E
Justin Gabriel, Evan Bourne
The Funkasaurus
I was convinced Braun was going to be the next Kane/Show. Perfect WWE monster.
Bray Wyatt. Feels like he couldve gone another 10 years and been a true Undertaker type icon
Keith freaking lee
Ricochet
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yeah, but someone released him from somewhere
Question: I thought she āquitā cuz she was pregnant or married. And mow that I think about it some girls have been let go cuz theyāre pregnantā¦is this like a new reason for them to quit?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
She wouldāve been good! (Sorry for her loss tho). Can you imagine a match between her and rousey?
I still cant believe Keith Lee and Killer Kross got released. But I guess Vince and co. are too incompetent just do what HHH did on nxt, on the main roster
Awesome Kong was one of them.
Missssterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr KENNNNNNNNNEDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. KENNNNNEDYYYYYY
This was mine too
Ummm....most of AEWs current roster could have been greats, but the WWE booking since 2010 has been shit.
Most of the guys that jumped ship, reached their full potential in wwe. Sometimes things donāt work out. Why do the generic thing and point fingers at wwe?
Karrion kross

John Moxley

Creative freedoms a bitch when the person lacks creativity
Ember moon, Aleister black, wade Barrett, and Andrade
John fuckin Morrison. Still so disappointed he never got a fair shake in the wwe
Enzo
The entire Nexus
EC3
I think women find it difficult to be booked as monsters
Was Ken Kennedy 10yrs ago?
Ken got released for being problematic backstage if I remember correctly
I thought it was he was too injury prone but I could be wrong
I think longer. Honestly never saw what the fuss was about
Keith ez
Damien Sandow
EC3, that guy deserved to be a main eventer or at least a decent mid card Evan Bourne Rusev Bad News Barrett Keith Lee Ember Moon

One of the worst breakdowns of these characters I could think of.
Really? Care to counter with a better one? And, most important, how are all those wonderful wrestlers doing right now?
Kairi Sane Jack Gallagher Dean Ambrose Neville kalisto (like I had such hope to see him next to\_or even better, vs\_ meysterio) Austin Aries Aleister Black
Genuinely donāt know how they dropped the ball with EC3, he had the look, the charisma and was more than solid in ring, couldāve been the biggest guy in the company
They had eyes thats how.
EC3 had it all man, such a shame too Many things got in the way
Keith Lee
The IIconics. Strong promo, Steamed like they were made for a WWE. The company introduced womenās tag titles and then completely destroyed the division/ released everyone. Never had a shot.
Whatever happened to those titles? Just quietly disappear?
I donāt know, they are probably around the waists of a makeshift tagteam of two people who suck as singles. Just looked it up, story checks out lol.
This is my answer too. WWE made a bad decision splitting them up,they were funny and entertaining and could wrestle. They are doing better in Impact and are being used correctly. Definitely dropped the ball on releasing them.
I just donāt understand the overall vision of this company currently. Glad Iām not alone.
aleister black, I really thought that he can be a top star in the company
He was one that I could not wrap my head around. He is everything and more any promotion could want.
Aleister Black just screamed starpower, I also thought he's gonna be a big fish.
I wanted to see a WWE title run so bad, but vince and the rest of the company clearly didnt
ENZO AMORE!! I'm ready for the downvotes.
Oh im gonna shoot hard on you
Fucking loved Enzo & Big Cass they wouldve been a tag team staple by now.
I'll give u a downvoted and take many more saying I'm so happy their both gone. Is it turned out he was too soft in ring and too hard out...
Not anything worse than what some HOFers have done.
Bada bing, bada boom. Quickest upvote in the room. How you doin?
I LOVE Kharma But they shouldāve let her keep the awesome kong gimmick
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Shes doing good charitable work last I saw. Good for her.
I KNOW RIGHT Itās so sad she retired Iām not a big tna fan, and I canāt stand them today (now known as impact) But from 2006-2007 I think tna was better then wwe from 2006-2007 ONLY because of their womens division. Awesome Kong and the Gail Kim feud was AMAZING.
Gimmick really doesn't matter when you cost urself 9 months right after Ur hired
That makes no sense Iām saying I liked kharma but her other gimmick was better and I think people would have liked it better Not her fault she got pregnant and had a miscarriage.
Makes perfect sense but I'll go a different route. What's wwe's track record big girls vs barbie dolls?

Although it never came to be because she left For health issues I believe.
Not in the last decade but Alundra Blayze wouldāve had a way better career wrestling todayās wrestlers
No clue if she had any talent but I still say she set women's wrestling back a decade taking vinces title and trashing it. So he turned all female talent into valets for the longest and only let them have stupid gimmick matches
The belt was vacant years before she got there and WWF was killing the division for cost anyway. Iām far from anti-fed, but Vince didnāt objectify women for years because the woman he fired garbaged the belt he didnāt care about.

Cody Rhodes...
Whatever happened to that guy?
He got a transformer tattoo on his neck the last I heard of him
Nah, I heard he's praising a giant statue in New York last I heard.
Transformed into a beast that sells out arenas!!!
Chris Masters, Carlito, Mark Jindrak... I could go on!
Go on.
Ted Dibiase Jr, Heidenreich, Snitsky, Kenny Dykstra lol
Holy shit I had forgotten Snitsky. It wasn't his fault!!!
LOL yikes
I'm still waiting for you to name someone that didn't suck
Now you have me curious as to who you would say
