Mickie James called out WWE for their release of Bray Wyatt.
WWE surprised many fans on Saturday when they released Bray Wyatt, one of their headlining superstars in past years. As per usual with WWE, they released him well in his future endeavors.
Mickie James, who was infamously released by WWE in April and sent her items in a trash bag as part of her release, replied to WWE's tweet and "corrected" their well wishes.
James wrote, "I think what you meant to say was: 'Thank you so much for coming up with such an incredible gimmick(time & time again)one so cool & over, we really didn’t know how to book it right. So we just gave it to someone else so we can still make ALL the money off of it & let you go'"

She followed that up by saying that her critique isn't of Alexa Bliss, but rather her just pointing out facts.
This isn’t against Alexa. I love her. She’s an incredible performer who is killing it in a role she was given. She always does. We as artists take every role we’re given & turn it into gold. He, she, they both did that. Like it/not. Facts are facts. So sorry if that offends you.

Wyatt was often praised for his ability to portray multiple characters during his WWE run. At WrestleMania 37, Alexa Bliss turned on Bray and took characteristics of "The Fiend" character to use for herself. Wyatt did an episode of Firefly Fun House following WrestleMania 37, but hadn't been on television since.
Fightful will have more on the release of Wyatt as it is known.
