Amish Roadkill, who was released on Monday alongside five other WWE developmental wrestlers was said to be on the chopping block for quite some time. Johnny Ace was his biggest backer as he put him over huge to Vince McMahon, saying he could be like the new One Man Gang, and that he had good mic skills. McMahon saw pictures of Roadkill and thought he looked impressive. He them came up with an idea for him to completely change his look and be a 1970s-style Polish-American heel from Milwaukee. Then one day, McMahon finally met Roadkill in person after being told so much about him, and he came away less than impressed after discovering that Roadkill is actually only 5'9". He's billed as 6'3". WWE kept Roadkill around a little while longer, but he soon disappeared from OVW, and the axe fell on him on Monday.

Now her pesky tights are peeled off in a slamming pictorial." The magazine will be officially released on Friday, March 7, but subscribers will likely get it a bit earlier.
