Most of the news, sources, and a funny post from a former 3-week WWE writer are there. But the jist is that PWInsider have reported it, and Dave meltzer is saying that he's heard that Kazarian saw the writing on the wall after pitching an idea to a writer and receiving a look of "you work here?".

As Ben Bauer reported last night, former TNA star and current WWE star, Frankie Kazarian has asked for his release from World Wrestling Entertainment. Well some new information has come out on his motivation for going to WWE management and asking for his release from the company (which according to his official website he’s been granted).

Apparently this all started a few months ago when Kazarian went to WWE management and asked to be released from his deal as he joined the company in February and still hadn’t been used. He pretty much told them that he wanted to be released if they were not intending to use him. WWE then put him on Velocity in a small push with wins over, Nunzio, Scotty 2 Hotty, Funaki, and Paul London and was even granted microphone time.

Even though he never appeared on Smackdown itself it did appear that WWE was going to begin pushing him. Even with those wins he still wasn’t happy with his position in WWE. Things got even worse when WWE decided recently to relax on the high flying moves like, 450’s, shooting star presses, etc which Kazarian was not at all in favor of. Reportedly the last straw was when WWE management approached him about cutting off his hair and changing his look (which they’ve done in the past with Test, and Christian).

Add all of this together and that is the reasons why Frankie Kazarian went to WWE management this weekend and informed them that he wanted out of his deal, to which WWE has reportedly granted. Kazarian will give a statement to his official website later on this week about his release and we of course will be following this story and will have any updates right here on WrestleView.com

I actually liked his the future gimmick and i thought he could of gone places,will TNA take him back?

Trimmy · 15-08-2005, 10:13 AM

Next stop ROH for him me thinks.

I'm disappointed. I saw him on Velocity a few times, and he seemed to be genuinely on the way to a SD push. He was going over the Velocity "stars", and getting promo time. And I for one liked him heaps. Bugger.

I have seen some of his great TNA matches and thought he was a real future star perhaps for WWE in their crusierweight division but I suppose like all cruiserwights in WWE you must remember to Vince Size maters!

good on him i say, most wrestlers just shut up and go through with managements ideas for them. at least he's hasn't just kept quiet and took the money. he obviously has bigger ideas for himself than wwe will grant him and i'll bet he can still make enough money working for the indepdents. i mean most wrestlers will wear almost any costume or change their appearance if it means money but i've got more respect for frankie after this.

TNA will take him back and thank god to be honest cause there is no WWE division worth the time of day at the minute.

He was never going to be there forever. He got some exposure and a boost to his profile by being able to say he was a WWE employee for a while, but everyone knew he was never going to skyrocket up the roster and make an impact. He'll have lots of other options on the indies now, or the chance to go back to TNA. It's not the end of the world for him.
