Mickie James commented on her release on Twitter.
“Grateful for the memories. Grateful for the locker room. Grateful for the fans. Grateful for these little keys to my golden handcuffs. You can never expected others vision of you to be big as your own dreams. Thank you,” she Tweeted at Vince McMahon.
Matt Cardona also took to Twitter to comment on the releases.
“I was literally making a post about how this past year has been a blessing in disguise as the news of these releases broke. You will all be fine. Work your ass off. Create your own opportunities. I love you @ImChelseaGreen. You are a fucking star.” He Tweeted.
As was the case last year, there could be more names to be added to this list as the day goes on and people are contacted. Chelsea Green and Samoa Joe’s names were added recently to the report after not having been included in the original.
“WWE has come to terms on the release of Billie Kay, Mickie James, Chelsea Green, Tucker, Kalisto and Wesley Blake as of today April 15, 2021.”
