   Are we guessing he is also too injury-prone?
   
   Kennedy and Umanga to TNA

   Um...wooow. They're really grasping for any financial boost they can get.
   
   Umaga was a damn good jobber to the stars level talent. Life goes on without him, but how is he gone while Khali still has a job?

   I know the creative team had literally nothing to go on with him .. but damn. Guess he just worked himself into a corner gimmick-wise. Let's wait a year or two to see if he comes back under another name again, he's done it before if I'm not mistaken.

    Hmmm...yet another Somoan given a pink slip. Guess there are far more TVs in India than in Somoa eh?
    
    Personally, I think Umaga (since coming to SmackDown) got screwed with one of the lousiest storylines in recent memory. Ah well...WWE will end up suffering...esp since this is probably yet another "brilliant" idea to make the show more PG instead of R.
    
    I wonder if WWE management realizes that they had more viewers back during the WWE Attitude era than it does today?

    umaga was good but not that good, he seemed a bit slow.

    Probably Wellness Policy related....
    
    Anyways, two options > TNA, team with Joe as the "Samoan Suicide Squad" or go to NWE which his brother Kishi runs...

    He probably scared too many little kids. WWE dont want that with PG! Undertaker will probably released next following their logic
