Torrie Wilson has apparently been released by WWE, although it should be noted that WWE.com has yet to confirm the story.
The feeling backstage is that Wilson's release has been expected ever since her husband, Billy Kidman, got released.

That's 1 worthless bitch gone. Next on the pecking order is No-Tit Stacy.

I was wondering where she was tonight. Great, one less diva I actually know the name of. It confused me why they didn't release Kidman and Wilson at the same time.
Although Scrooge, I'd be in favour of keeping Keibler, as long as creative has something to do with her (more than eye candy).

Torrie was still blowing Vince most likely.

They should've released Torrie over the summer when she wasn't doing anything but random ring entrances on Smackdown and Velocity. They shouldn't have waited until she was involved in a stable with Victoria and Candice.
Could this mean that a Mickie heel turn will lead to Mickie replacing Torrie in that group?

God dammit...
WWE.com reports that Torrie Wilson has not been released from WWE and that she stayed home during the Australia tour and was removed from Taboo Tuesday due to personal issues. Check out WWE.com's full article on the story (not) HERE.

I'm actually happy that she wasn't released, as it keeps the evil bitch trio on Raw intact.

I'd rather WWE fire the entire womens division again, sans Trish, Victoria, and Alexis. The rest don't know how to wrestle (or they can't do it good enough to make it look believable), and their eye candy level of usefulness has long been expired.

For real Scrooge. I'm sorry, but only a fag would be so upset that a hottie like Torrie Wilson, who plays her character very well, ISNT released.

You know, there's a reason why I watch WRESTLING. I watch it because WRESTLING is entertaining, and sometimes WRESTLING can be a great way to zone out stupid shit for a few hours.
If I watch wrestling I want to watch WRESTLING. If I want to look at a blonde bimbo with fake tits and a D-Level acting ability, I'll watch PORN.
Sorry for the overusing of capitalization, but it's a point I grow tired of making every other day.

But you like Kane and Hulk Hogan. You just can't sit here and hypocritically bitch about wanting WRESTLING when you like two of the lamest WRESTLERS in the history of the BUSINESS. Those guys, especially Hogan, are all show, and Hogan at his current status is NO MORE than a Torrie Wilson or Candice Michelle.

...And Jillian Hall. If they let Hall and Melina actually wrestle, we might be surprised.

You've either never watched any Indy promotion, or WCW, or ECW... hell, I can go on and on, or are just grasping at straws here.
Hulk Hogan still can work a crowd and cut a promo. Is he way past his prime to the point it's painful to watch him? Yes.
Is Kane even more limited now then he was 5 years ago and showing signs that he should hang it up soon? Yes. But they still do their best and actually wrestle (and, a weird concept, were TRAINED to wrestle), and effort is 90% of the job. There's no law that says you can't be a wrestler if you aren't Mr. Fantastico in the ring. Hogan has been around 25 years working the same 2 gimmicks, and the Kane gimmick has been around for 8-9 years. They must be doing something right.
However, You can pull any random skanks off the street and they can "wrestle" as good as Torrie. Why? Torrie isn't a wrestler, she was never trained to be a wrestler (she probably was given a "basic stuff" instruction for situations like cat fights, but that's it), and when they stick her in the ring to wrestle, it looks like amatuer hour at the club that holds mud wrestling matches.
jamiegeist - November 2, 2005 07:25 AM (GMT)
I don't think I once said she should "wrestle", I just don't like her being released. Or at the very least, there is no reason to be super-relieved that she is gone. It just makes no sense, unless of course you don't like girls.
This discussion has happened before, so its over. The women bring alot more (in entertainment and in viewership) than you realize. The majority of people watching RAW are still idiot casual viewers who like the hot chicks and the big moves. Not wrestling "purists" such as "yourself".

You do realize that Kane and Hogan (no matter how bad they are in the ring) do have more of a right to be on a WRESTLING show than any dumb ass broad that ISN'T a wrestler right?
jamiegeist - November 2, 2005 05:01 PM (GMT)
A "right"? This is just getting silly now.
Mad Dog - November 2, 2005 05:14 PM (GMT)
Hulk Hogan is the biggest name in wrestling history. If he wanted to show up on any show and just punch the announcer in the face he has that right because he's HULK FUCKING HOGAN.
Scrooge McSuck - November 2, 2005 05:16 PM (GMT)
And at least Hogan can throw an actual punch. There's maybe 1 woman in WWE that can throw one that doesn't look like complete shit... (I'm talking Rob Van Dam bad)
Which reminds me, is Lita ever going to wrestle again? Seems like her torn ACL should've healed by now.
Mad Dog - November 2, 2005 07:10 PM (GMT)
Torrie never worked for me. She's good looking but has no charisma whatsoever. She actually has that rare talent where she could be dancing naked in front of me and I would care less.

...All because she has no charisma?
Mad Dog - November 2, 2005 11:36 PM (GMT)
There's nothing overly sexy about her. She's a dead fish and more like a cardboard cutout than an actual person to me. When she tries to act sexy it fails horribly.

All of the divas are cardboard cutouts, pretty much. They're clearly a draw based purely on the size of their boobs, and their inclusion is entirely for the benefit of the teenage male demographic.
Or, translated: Men like tits.
I wouldn't be opposed to them cutting the women's division out entirely, unless they can, you know, get actual wrestlers.
