World Wrestling Entertainment announced the releases of ECW star Elijah Burke and Smackdown star Kenny Dykstra this afternoon.

Burke had not been used in recent months. He was a central figure during the ECW Originals vs. New Breed feud but had lost his main supporter when Dave Lagana left the WWE Creative team.

Dykstra was considered the best of the Spirit Squad crew during their run on Raw, but was saddled with a reputation for a bad attitude, which hindered him politically within the company. He was considered a "can't miss" prospect during his time in Ohio Valley Wrestling while under a developmental deal.

You forgot to mention Lena has been released!

And as for Burke...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I have always liked Burke and he is defintiely on the same level as Punk and Morrison. I bet if he had recieved an ECW title run he would still be wth the company in a much better place!

Fuck WWE for releasing Elijah Burke. Right now, I can see him hitting the indy scene for a while and then possibly jumping ships to TNA.

^Burke was decent, but nothing great, and had shown nothing in wwe. I would've liked to have seen him have more of a chance, but since he didn't, he can move on.
It sucks the whole spirit squad was taken out of wwe though.:(

Co-Sign Dre...

Burke joining TNA is bound to happen, I wonder what other moves he can do if he's in TNA since some of them were restricted by Vince in the E.

As for Kenny.. It's a damn shame the way he's been misused by WWE after he beat Ric Flair when we all thought he was gonna be a Heavyweight champion someday.

And as for Lena...
All I can do now is look at her classic photoshoots, I'm going to miss her even she didn't a damn thing except interviewing.

Hometown Kid is gonna throw a fucking bitch fit when he sees this

Son of a bitch, Burke was one of the greatest stars ECW ever had. He is way better than queers like Ricky Ortiz, Gavin Spears or Ryan Bradock for sure. How could WWE be so stupid when it comes to seeing talent in superstars?

Burke has just followed the path Sylvester Turky followed a year and so ago. Both had what it takes to stay in the company, but the "fan base/ draw" was zero to nill.

As for Kenny, nobody gave a shit about him. Seriously.

I heard and my thoughts you ask? Thank God. :y: Who would want someone to stay with a company that wastes him? I hope he goes to TNA (or NJPW) so he actually wrestles again...I'm sad to see Lena go though, she was 1 of my favs to look at. :( Kenny is meh, and to whoever said the entire Spirit Squad is gone, you forgot about Dolph Ziggler obviously. :shifty:

I don't give a shit about Kenny but Elijah getting released was a bit of a shock considering that he was actually a good worker. I hope he eventually shows up in TNA

they shouldve kept the Squad together for a little more, then give them a good break-up storyline. i liked them all. Kenny had great potential and I hope he comes back sometime after the Indys and never go to TNA.

as for Burke. FUCK. why in the hell did they do this. if they say he doesnt have a big enough fan base then the WWE is dumb. it sounds like most people like him and that he should be a World Champion. Its sad to see him go and he should come back but i never see him coming back. Hell probably go to Japan and ill never see him wrestle again. So I hope he goes to TNA so that i can actually watch him.

As for Lena. I dont really care. Theres plenty of other hot divas to look at. Get rid of Candice and Jillian. Beth and Victora are at least talented so keep them

I hate it how everytime some WWE guy is fired you all say he could jump to TNA, we all know only the popular guys do that :smh

Why are you all so pissed about him being released, yeah Elijah was awesome but he wasn't even on TV so its not like your missing anything. He was good when he was on TV though, but still...
