Shantelle Taylor, who was released earlier this week by WWE, issued a statement on her Myspace Account in regards to her release:
"First off, I would like to thank all my fans for the loving support. Without you I would not be able to do what I love and that's to wrestle. My experience with WWE is something that can never be replaced. It gave me the opportunity to get a taste of what it's like to live your dream. None of you should be worried about me though! I have lots of goals and aspirations. I'm a fighter!! This is fuel for me, I'm going to use this negative and turn it into a positive. I'm 21 years old and I have my whole life ahead of me. I will defiantly not be sitting around waiting for something to happen. I am doing everything in my power since my release to make many opportunities available. All I ask is for you all to keep an eye on my myspace and my website which will be completely renovated very shortly because I have a lot of great things coming up."
