It's a sad day for us all... well for me, anyway. I used to RP as him. Can't say I didn't see it coming though.

I liked Kendrik. At least, over London

This is why I don't watch wwe that much any more, they fire people who have talent and keep stupid fucking people like Mark Henrey. I stick to TNA and Independent Wrestling. The only show I watch of wwe's is Smackdown!

I am done with WWE! I f*cking hate Vince, Teddy (No, nobody hates Teddy...), any guest host (besides Batista...lol, and Seth Green...) and anybody who was ever a GM or Manager or whoever...

Kendrick has had this coming for a while. You could argue that he dropped the ball with his Smackdown push (although the real lack of character development time didn't help him) and his drug problem isn't something they were going to overlook forever. He isn't Jeff Hardy after all.

You guys get mad because they fire someone like Kendrick, because he was a hazard to them. He smoked pot all the time, and who knows what else he was doing, and honestly, he's not that great. WWE isn't Ring of Honor, so they can't keep a bunch of these RoH type of wrestlers.
I don't know why you would swear off WWE because they got rid of Kendrick. How much money did he make them last year? Then see how much money someone like John Cena made them? Although everyone hates Cena (but apparently still buys his merchandise), they are smart to keep him. WWE is still a business, they aren't just here to do what we want.
Vince McMahon has made way more money than any of us, and has done it for years on end, so he's got to be doing something right.

Kendrick isn't really an "RoH Style" wrestler, for a start he has personality and bags of it. This isn't Roderick Strong or Davey Richards we're talking about here. This is a guy who has proven, albeit briefly, that he can connect with a large crowd and make them care one way or another about the character he is portraying. Maybe he could've done a little bit more with the "Loose Cannon V.2" gimmick they gave him on Smackdown, however creative could've also made it more about him and less about "big Zeke" as well. At the end of the day his pot use is more than likely the big reason they dropped him, after all they seem to have developed a fondness for keeping around guys who don't conform to the old cookie-cutter WWE style.
On the Cena thing, nobody (or rather very few people) who professes to hate him buys his merch. The people who buy the Cena merch by the truckload are the people he is marketed towards, kids. Personally I don't get all the Cena hate, I mean sure it's wierd that a guy can do something for so long and still be pretty mediocre at it but it's not like he's the second coming of wrestling satan or anything.

Storm, Kendrick(aka Spanky) has already been in ring of honor. Matt WWE has sucked ever since the year 2004. Here is a list of people they have that I hate, John Cena, Mark Henrey, Jack Swagger, The Great Khali, Jesse, Festus, Kofi Kingston, Cody Rhodes and many more. I reason I don't watch wwe very much anymore isn't because of the release of kendrick, its because of the recent pg turn.

I realise he has been in RoH. I'm saying that he is not what I immediately think of when I think "RoH style wrestler" since he has personality as well as "movez".
Also, Jack Swagger is amazing and anytime people say they don't like him a kitten dies:-<

Here's the thing: RVD was giving, supposably, three health warnings for 1. Either smoking pot or 2. being caught with drugs...but, it was when he was WWE/ECW Champ so he was able to stay...but why he is even able to be mentioned in the same sentence as 'Royal Rumble', I lose my lunch...he has made an apperance at every Royal Rumble since he came to WWE after ECW closed down...
I agree Karl, I hope that whoever says that Jack Swagger sucks gets kicked in the nuts or pimp slapped! Lol
