Stacy Keibler/Maxim, More On Super Crazy's WWE Release, & More
? Super Crazy asked for his release on November 1st from what I'm being told. As noted earlier here on the website, Crazy (real name Francisco Pantoja Islas) quit the company at a house show. It came out of nowhere, and he was said to be unhappy with his status in the company. He's been been promised pushes a number of times, but they've never materialized. Senior Vice President of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis didn't take the news too well. Laurinaitis told Islas, "Do you know how many wrestlers in Mexico want to be here?" Islas was telling friends that despite his low-level position with the company, he was happy with the pay, but unhappy with his job. Should WWE release Islas, he is eligible to collect three months of pay without working due to the non-compete clause, but he's willing to waive it because he simply wants to wrestle to the best of his ability. If he waives the non-compete clause, he is still not able to go to TNA for 90 days, but that's probably not his goal anyway.
