Jeff Wilen, of the Dayton Beach News Journal reports several WWE wrestlers were cut.

I am unhappy that all the Dudleys, Bubba, D-Von and Spike, were all cut. Two Tough Enough winners, Maven and Jackie Gayda, were also released.

Others released include: Joy Givanni, Charlie Haas, and Matt Morgan.

Charlie Haas also surprises me. Charlie's exploits in the WWE farm team were always mentioned in Jim Ross' now extinct Friday column.
