Maria Kanellis had been with the company since 2005, where she placed fifth in the Diva Search. Her release is somewhat surprising in that she's part of the cast for the upcoming Celebrity Apprentice season on NBC, so that cross-promotion is obviously out the window. WWE gave her the Diva of the Year Slammy just this past December.
Of late in interviews, she's mentioned wanting to plan for life after wrestling and will be releasing her first pop album via itunes on 4/13.
Personally, I think if I were a non-main event WWE talent I would turn my phone off.
