Alright. What the hell?

That's about the only reason I can think of. Umaga's become one of my favorite guys on Smackdown.

I never cared too much for Umaga, but still, why!?!

Kennedy, now Umaga... who next!?!

What else could it be?

Dropped CM Punk on his head last night?

This is a total surprise. I wonder what cause this to happen?! Did he got into it with someone? Or does it have something to do with the wellness?

Can't be Wellness. WWE would have said it, ever since the Violations being made public.

I say if it's not the Wellness, then he might've done something to get himself release like getting into with one of the top stars?

Injured? Again? You would think that if is the case, Batista and Candice would have gotten the "Best Endeveours" speech.Dark_Hylian8

So much of Umaga being gone. I wanted to see Umage vs. Undertaker match to take place.

It's possible. He just came back from injuries and he had a Samoan Strap Match yesterday. It seems believable. Creative usually has nothing for the lower-card superstars and Umaga is certainly not that, so you can count that out.   

Well, I will miss Umaga. He was one of the best big-man workers in the business.Link256

Same here. They should have put another title run in his diaperthing.

What the hell. That is shocking. Sad news. I was enjoying his recent push and feud with Punk.

You know, even if his recent push might fool us otherwise, sometimes the WWE has given guys notice before hand and offered them one last little run in a program. It's happened before and might be the case with Umaga.

Gotta imagie TNA will making a call Umaga's way.Link256

Probably. Its getting ridiculous that TNA is always eating WWE's leftovers.

Jeff Jarrett has to be ****ing psyched. The Samoan Death Squad is going to dominate... by losing ther first match to Eric Yound and Shark Boy.

I may not exactly be in the loop these days, but WTF? Anybody?

Not so long ago, dude managed to do what no one else was doing, get John Cena cheered and have good matches with him. Not long after that, he was having epic matches with Jeff Hardy. Seemed like he was Vince's money monster.

You people have no idea how ****ed off I'am about this

I am listening to Figure 4, and so far, according to Meltzer, Umaga is telling people he quit.

Actually the only person he lost to since his return was the current World Heavyweight Champion. 

Man tell me this is a joke?

He had become one of the typical 'monsters' -dominant till the big match.

I hope Oomanga (Steven Regal reference) goes to TNA, and makes it huge! I hope all of the guys who are done at WWE go to TNA, and show WWE that they aren't the only show in town anymore! Hopefully all of these people that are leaving wwe will go to TNA and really challenge wwe. Maybe then wwe will actually try, and put more priority on making the product better, than making the product into vince's dreamland, where the only things that happen are done to make vince happy. Then maybe TNA will get better, and WWE will become creative again, and golden age #2 can begin. Maybe have the Thursday night wars? Everybody will be torn on which one to watch, and both shows become more and more innovative, and fun and exciting ... oh! Sorry about that. I was passed out for a second. I was dreaming about the glory days of WCW vs WWF. Oh well, we have our memories!

If you like him why would you curse him to go to TNA?

I never saw a promo of Umaga in english though, which I am pretty mad about.

Link - Thank you for the correction. I forgot to add the "y" before his name. I love Regal's complete botch of peoples' names.

GM - I was just saying, I want TNA to improve to the point of WCW, and have a creative surge in Wrestling again. TNA improving might be the spark to recreate competition with WWE, and have both companies strive to improve, and beat the other. That's all. I want Wrestling to be the entertainment powerhouse it was when I was in high school in the 90's.

I actually find TNA entertaining. They have some good parts. Maybe they can really do some good stuff with some fresh talent. Who knows. I can dream if I wanna, hehe!

TNA's problem isn't with their talent. It's with the booking and reliance on gimmicks and older draws.

If TNA's problem could be solved with talent, then they've got all they need with Shelley, Sabin, Joe, Daniels, Cide, AJ, Angle, Frankie Kazarian, Abyss, Doug Williams, Beer Money, and No Limit. 

Eddie Fatu (Umaga in WWE) is turning down independent dates at this time.
