As it's been reported all week, WWE released Joey Mercury this past Monday. It was said that because of several personal issues that the idea for the release was the best option. It is a situation similar to Kurt Angle's in that WWE is giving him time to fix his issues and then he will be welcome back to the company when they think he is ready. The decision to release him was a spur of the moment made at the catering room at Monday's RAW taping. He was said to be in really bad shape on Monday, and as much as people like him and feel bad for him, they felt this had to be done for his own good.

Last year he had some serious issues with pain killers and was sent to rehab. After getting out, he got his face destroyed by the ladder and got hooked on them again in a major way.

Many felt that termination may have been the wrong solution because he often gave it his all in the ring. such as the brutal injury he suffered at Armageddon. However, in reality, WWE is doing what they feel they have to do to help him to help himself.

I knew the broken nose had something to do with the drugs.

PS: I wonder if THIS release will have a similar outcome as the Angle one??

Remember the Spyda, dude ..
