"They don't care about us" - Released star slams WWE after the recent releases of John Morrison and others
The release spree from WWE keeps on coming as the latest round of "budget cuts" has seen multiple top names like John Morrison, Tegan Nox, and others released.
Former WWE Superstar Taya Valkyrie, and the wife of John Morrison, has lashed out at the company with a series of strong tweets. She has even asked fans to stop supporting WWE, claiming that the company has zero respect for its talent and doesn't care about the fans either.
Valkyrie has also urged pro-wrestling fans to spend their money on alternative promotions if they love pro wrestling.
"Stop supporting a company that has ZERO respect for their talent. You love pro wrestling, spend your money on the hundreds of other alternatives. This is wrong. Ethically, as employers they don’t care about us. Talent or fans," tweeted Taya Valkyrie.

Taya Valkyrie (FKA Franky Monet) was herself released from WWE earlier this month alongside multiple top names like Keith Lee, Karrion Kross, and Scarlett. Following the release of her husband John Morrison, she has sent out a heartfelt tweet for him.
"We always have each other, and that’s all that matters. I love you @TheRealMorrison," wrote Taya Valkyrie in her tweet.
