WWE Releases Developmental Diva
Bob Ryder of 1Wrestling.com is reporting that developmental diva Angel Williams was released by WWE last night. Williams started in OVW just last Wednesday as she wrestled in a dark match. She was a fixture in Deep South Wrestling until the promotion was closed down last month. She was really close to being called up to the main roster on two occasions. She was going to replace Jillian Hall as JBL's advisor in January 2006, but she went down with a severe injury the week before her television debut. She also had a shot at getting called up with The Gymini, but WWE officials weren't too pleased with their dark match tryouts, and they were subsequently released a few weeks later. Williams had been under a developmental contract with WWE since December 2004.
