In regards to the Stevie Richards release, he had always been described as a hard worker, but it has been clear for years that no matter how hard he worked that he would be stuck at a certain level for the rest of his career. He generally always helped Shane McMahon over the years when he would return to the ring by helping him get back into shape. Richards was always said to be praised by WWE agents for his work at house show events, but was never a "favorite" among creative because he would come up with ideas (something they usually like), but he reportedly got aggressive about telling people ideas and rubbed them the wrong way. He also never shook the "ECW" label in the eyes of many who looked at him as a minor leaguer as many ECW talent were never looked at as huge stars. It should be noted that Richards had prepared for a release from WWE for years and was well prepared if it had ever gone down.

As for the release of Colin Delaney, he had signed a three-year deal a few months ago, but never got over as the character they wanted him to be (ala Mikey Whipwreck) on the ECW brand. His heel turn on Tommy Dreamer fell flat and the opinion was that they did all they could with the character. He was already back in the ring working an indy show last Friday.

And THAT is why WWE is going down the toilet, because of kid fans who can't see real talent, which leads to newer talent not getting over, which leads to a lack of Main Event wrestlers in the future.
The guys have talent. You just hate the cr@ppy characters for them.

it's because wrestlers don't want to entertain us, they do it just for the money. Even thought it has nothing to do with this but just felt like saying it:P i think android was the one who said this before

That is the biggest load of crap anyone has posted and I'm including /b/ on this. There might be the very few people that would do it for the money, but they usually earn it in previous careers, like football, but guys like Richards and Olsen, especially Richards, would wrestle for the fans.

I didn't say that, I said that fans can't see through the gimmicks and will always judge the wrestlers by gimmick and not by talent level. Some fans just don't see the potential like others do.

It's going down the toilet because of bad programming as a result of poor booking...nothing to do with releasing jobbers.

Richards was one of the best they had and Olsen has major potential. They attempted a Whipwreck push with Colin but it didn't work out and I wouldn't be surprised if Richards was happy where he's at. Some vets do job to enhance some talent.

i agree Colin sucked a**, but Stevie wasnt bad, he actually had talent, but wasnt used right, his biggest thing in ECW was feuding with Kevin Thorn
