Charlie Haas talks about his release. He's kinda pissed (understandably)...and that comes across, but what REALLY caught my attention is the fact that 4 different possibly storylines were pitched by him and others...and yet Creative said they ran out of his ideas....um, how about THESE ideas that were pitched?

"-- Both guys were shocked because they thought there were angles that could've been done. Charlie mentioned he wanted to be traded to RAW to feud with Shelton because that would be something. James says, "That'd make sense." Charlie says, "That's the problem. It would've made sense."

-- Charlie says the above angle would've worked but because it wasn't something the writing team, or as he calls them "the young kids," didn't come up with, they didn't want it.

-- Another angle would've been to have Charlie challenge Kurt Angle in his invitational and last the full 3 minutes. Kurt would then jump him and cut off Russ' arm bands. Charlie says that should've been done because they want real life, it doesn't get more deep or real than that.

-- Charlie said he and Chris Benoit pushed for an angle over who is the most technical wrestler on Smackdown. "Evidentially, that didn't work." Charlie also says they could've just let them go longer with he and Hardcore Holly because they were getting over as a tag team and having good matches with MNM. "It was them who dropped the ball," says Charlie referring to the WWE.

I would've accepted Haas in ANY of those roles with open arms... except teaming with Holly. He's too good for that. They split up TWGTT, then stick him in ANOTHER team? Come the fuck on!

Instead Eugene gets the full 3 minutes in Angle's Invitational. I don't think I would have liked the angle with the arm band though. And would many WWE fans know who Russ Haas is?

You could always, in a bizzare twist, build it up. Also, I'm sure the PBP team (Tazz/Cole more specifically) mentioned it all the time.

I was actually getting into Haas/Holly as a team as I enjoyed their stuff with MNM. I still think it's the best stuff MNM has done since their debut.

Also, I agree with Scrooge that I would have accepted the other stuff too. I just don't see why they need to nothing with guys when THEY ARE PITCHING THEIR OWN IDEAS. It's like a free writing team and mainly it couldn't be any worse than some of the shit they've come up with.

Any of those 3 options could've easily went through. These people just make up shit and tell guys that creative doesn't have anything for them when most of time that's a total lie just to release people.
