Tony Atlas & Hornswoggle Leaving WWE?
It seems with the moves of Mark Henry to Raw and Goldust to ECW that both Tony Atlas and Hornswoggle may be about done with their WWE careers, for now. While both are pure speculation, Tony Atlas may be the more sure release as his contract is expiring in just a few weeks time.
According to twnpnews.com:
Of course one idea is for Atlas to become the manager for Ezekiel Jackson, another big man like Mark Henry who has yet to wrestle for ECW. Atlas could even align himself with Vladimir Kozlov in his chase for the title. Back in the WWF days, managers took on new wrestlers all the time, so let's hope WWE creative can put Atlas with someone. It would be a shame for Henry to be let go after resurrecting his once dormant career and saving himself from previous issues. Atlas competed in his first wrestling match in some time just a few weeks ago against Evan Bourne, but was on the losing end.
Hornswoggle is another story though. He now has no father figure, with Finlay on Smackdown and Goldust on ECW. Many fans have grown tired of the prankster leprechaun gimmick and found the fact he wins matches to be insulting to other talent. In previous episodes of Raw, Hornswoggle was paired up with Goldust and Festus in some sort of display of "freaks", but now that has been torn apart since the one guy who spoke, Goldust, has been traded to a new show.
According to twnpnews.com:
Tony Atlas' future with WWE is very much in doubt following the transfer of his associate, Mark Henry, to the Raw brand this past Monday.
Company officials plan on pushing the "World's Strongest Man" as a top babyface, which as a result, has left Atlas to fend for himself as he is not being brought alongside him.
The WWE Hall of Famer's contract is coming due in a few weeks and it remains uncertain whether it will be renewed.
