#3. Taya Valkyrie - Possibly burned the bridge with WWE

Taya Valkyrie has every right to be angry with WWE given how things played out for her. But she didn't lash out at the company as much when she got released as she did when her husband John Morrison did.

Known as Franky Monet in NXT, Valkyrie's run with Vince McMahon's promotion lasted a measly nine months before she was let go. She seemed to fall under the category of superstars who were towards an older age, even though 38 isn't that old by wrestling standards anymore.

Admittedly, women seem to have a bigger age cut-off than men do, but it was unfortunate that an established talent like Valkyrie was let go as abruptly as she was. Not too long after, her husband John Morrison was let go.

There was hardly a two-week gap between their releases, and after the veteran's second run with the company was over, Taya Valkyrie told fans to stop supporting companies that don't care about their talent.

It's safe to say that she won't have much of a relationship with her former employer going forward.
