Submitted by Matthew Tremley on Monday, March 26, 2007 at 4:29 PM EST







• It was announced on WWE.com that former multiple time WWE Tag Team Champion Joey Mercury has been released from the company. Here is the WWE's official statement:
  
  WWE.com has learned that today in Chicago, WWE officials have agreed on the immediate release of Joey Mercury
  
  This comes at a time when Mercury was looking at a comeback with the continued reuniting of MNM on all three brand shows in the last month or so since ECW's December to Dismember. Mercury also was the one who had his nose shattered in the tag team title ladder match at Armageddon. The last match Mercy competed in on WWE TV was in a loss with Johnny Nitro to the WWE Tag Team Champions Paul London & Brian Kendrick on Smackdown.
  
  There is no word yet on why Mercury was released but we will keep you informed as more information is revealed. One has to note that the wording for his release does not match ones where the superstar and the WWE have mutally agreed to come to terms. You also need to take into account that the WWE recently conducted several "Wellness Program" tests so there could be a connection there as well.
