WWE News: Kenny Dykstra issues statement following release; says he's happy to be gone Nov 13, 2008 - 10:23:37 AM
Kenny Dykstra (Ken Doane) was released from WWE earlier this week. Now he says he finally feels free after spending six years with WWE.
"Believe it or not I actually am happy to be gone from WWE," Dykstra said on his myspace page. "I don't have to do things around their schedule and I don't have to answer to anybody."
Doane says being with WWE since he was 16 years old created a situation where the only thing he knew in life was WWE. "I did have fun with WWE but the creative side never used me properly or really gave me an opportunity to get over," he said.
He isn't sure whether he will stick to wrestling, although he'll use the 90-day no-compete clause in his contract release to consider his options.
"WWE kinda puts a bad taste in your mouth after all the politics and garbage that can go on," Doane said. "I may try to go to TNA but we will see."
DISCUSSION POINT: Could TNA use Doane? Should he stick to wrestling? Discuss below!
