[WWE] Backstage Reactions to Hardy’s Release and the new Diva Search

Archive

– Although many WWE workers anticipated Rhyno’s release due to the public nature of the hotel incident at WrestleMania, Matt Hardy’s release came as more of a surprise. Sources indicate that it was likely Hardy’s public airing of the issues between himself, Edge and Lita that led to his dismissal, in addition to a friend of his leaking the story to reporters. Many workers feel that WWE is overstepping it’s boundaries in dealing with their personal issues in this manner.

– Many WWE workers are also upset that the company will be launching another $250,000 Diva Search. Although Christy Hemme is well-liked and has a great deal of respect for the business, they are still unhappy that an unexperienced outsider can come in out of nowhere and automatically earn more than they do at a time when their wages are down.
