As noted before, Goldust was recently released by WWE after working as a producer for the SmackDown brand. Word came out that an undisclosed incident at the April 24th SmackDown tapings in Grand Rapids, Michigan led to his contract being terminated.

F4Wonline.com now reports that the belief is that Goldust was responsible for coming up with the spot on SmackDown where Yoshi Tatsu took a double-team powerbomb finisher from Darren Young and Titus O’Neil. Tatsu landed bad and the bump was said to look even worse live than it did on TV.

Young and O’Neil were not in action on the May 4th SmackDown but did work this week’s tapings, using a different finishing move.

In the end, we have to realize one thing. Don't give big spots to be handled by rookies in the lowercard. Only give them to Tyler Reks and Curt Hawkins :D

So O'Neil and Young botched the move, and Goldust gets fired? It's not like it was his fault. Well, I guess someone had to take the blame for it.

If one man is bigger then the WWE it is Yoshi Tatsu. The beater of Sheamus.

Really sad about that. :/// They value a low-carder than a actual legend? Fuck WWE logic. :huh:

I'm not sure that I believe that article. Goldust gets fired for someone else botching a move that they agreed to do?

There could be some truth to this actually. When was the last time we saw a standing powerbomb that wasn't the Tombstone. Sheamus has stopped using the Celtic Cross, Tensai only does sitting powerbomb. Swagger hasn't used his powerbomb in a long time. It might be that the WWE have deemed the powerbomb a too unsafe move to use and Rhodes, being the booker got fired for telling talent to use a move they are not allowed to use. Just a thought.

If this is true then Vince needs to shake his head. Like I am SMH.
Maybe if you didn't put f'n amateurs in the ring people wouldn't face risk of injury like that. Whether Goldust approved it or not.
