WWE News: More Updates on Recent WWE Releases

Earlier, WWE decided to trim down the roster like they always do on an annual basis. Unlike the other years, this time around, they waited till the fall to confirm those names who were finally released off their contract. The unfortunate names were Emma, Summer Rae, and Darren Young.
The latter two names were inactive on the WWE roster for a long time now, and hence their release was evident at a certain point. However, Emma being shown the door was quite surprising. She has always been a bright talent on the female roster who was never given an opportunity. It was not her fault, at all that she could not earn a name for herself in the company.
Walking into the weekend like…

But, the positive part of this parting away is that the Australian superstar can join any of the independent promotions to start performing where she can get far better opportunities. These days, the women from the independent circuit are tearing the house down and forcing the top promotion, i.e. WWE to recruit them. So, she can hope for the very best outside the biggest pro-wrestling promotion.
However, recent reports from f4WONline.com suggested Emma might have to wait a long time until she can sign a new deal with a second company. As per the report, she alongside the other two names released will have to wait until next year’s March to start wrestling, again.
I feel very fortunate to have the most amazing family, friends and fans in the world! I am excited for the future. The best is yet to come!

When a WWE superstar leaves the company, he or she has to serve a three-month ‘non-compete’ clause. This clause assures that the talent can’t sign in any other promotion until 90 days are over from the date she cuts tie with the WWE. But, in this case, these three names will have to serve 180 days by the virtue of the clause. It is quite a long time since in six months the hypes around Emma can fade away.
The same trick is being applied to Neville, as well. According to a report from the 434 Facebook page, Vince McMahon will not release him from the contract and will make him sit in his home until his contract runs down. It is going to be a punishment for the former champion for walking out of the company in October.
