“WWE has come to terms on the release of WWE Superstar Emma. WWE wishes Emma the best in all of her future endeavors.”Emma (Tenille Dashwood) just took part in a match with Asuka in what was Asuka’s main roster debut last Sunday at the TLC PPV. The two also had a rematch on RAW the following night.
She signed a developmental deal with WWE back in 2011 after a stint on the independent wrestling scene that started in 2005 and later restarted back up in 2008 after injuries.
Dashwood has not commented on the release as of this morning.
WWE has announced the releases of Darren Young and Summer Rae this morning.
This comes just a little less than an hour after the release of Emma was announced.
The updated statement reads:
“WWE has come to terms on the releases of WWE Superstars Emma, Darren Young and Summer Rae. WWE wishes them the best in all of their future endeavors.”Young had quietly returned to the roster at live events after suffering an injury to his right elbow earlier this year in January. He underwent surgery this past February. Young signed a deal with WWE back in 2009 as part of the Florida Championship Wrestling developmental territory and was later part of the televised NXT show with CM Punk as his coach. He was later part of the Nexus group and then took part in season five of NXT.
Young formed a tag team with Titus O’Neil as The Prime Time Players and after a lengthy run including a stint as WWE Tag Team Champions, the team split up and Young was paired with Hall of Famer Bob Backlund. He also made headlines back in 2013 coming out as gay, receiving full support from WWE management and members of the roster. Young later criticized WWE for touring Abu Dhabi where homosexuality is considered a crime
.
Summer Rae has been off WWE television for nearly a year after suffering a series of injuries that kept her off the road. Reports earlier this year stated she was being cleared for a return to the company, but it never took place. Rae signed with WWE in 2011 as part of Florida Championship Wrestling and later transitioned to NXT. She made her main roster debut in 2013 being paired as a dancer with Fandango.
Opinionated View- Emma could never catch a break she was given that stupid dancing gimmick and got pared up with Santino. Than they wasted how much time on Emmalina and instead of pushing her she was used to enhance people like Jax and Askua. Not helping her were some injures and that shoplifting incident. That said for the love of god all the people you could cut its one of the ones with talent. I mean Fox, botchy Banks, Bayle or Jax who just walked out you keep yet its Emma that gets fired. Nothing against either of them but why one of the fake Megan Olivis?
Young is a guy that was never that good can't even say there was anything he did well in or out of the ring. He wasn't even that good doing promos or anything. Hell I've openly said if he hadn't come out as gay I think he would have been cut a long time ago. That all said Kane, Big Show, Henry all old men who part timers or not I bet draw much bigger Paychecks that Young does.
Summer I always felt had potential to be a great valet. Be this generations Woman Missy Hyatt. But she never really got that chance. She often wound up having to wrestle when she really wasn't a great wrestler. Often the stories she was in were all about dumb comedy instead of ever letting her build heat.
