THE STORY BEHIND WWE RELEASING TORRIE WILSON

World Wrestling Entertainment announced on Thursday that it had come to terms on the release of longtime WWE and WCW Monday Nitro Diva Torrie Wilson. The beauty from Boise joined WWE in 2001 as part of the pennies-on-the-dollar purchase of Ted Turner's World Championship Wrestling promotion by Vince McMahon's World Wrestling Entertainment.

On December 28th, www.wrestlingnewsdesk.com posted a story entitled WILL BACK PAINS END THE CAREER OF WWE DIVA TORRIE WILSON? (CLICK HERE). At the time, Torrie told her fans she was hoping to return to the ring. In the meantime, the former Mrs. Billy Kidman now resides near Houston, Texas with new boyfriend Nick Mitchell (formerly of the WWE Spirit Squad, now happily no longer with WWE but living with the buxom Ms. Wilson), and they have opened up a clothing line and store named "Jaded."

Torrie Wilson, the bodacious buxom blonde bombshell lasted longer than any other current Diva on the WWE roster. Her fitness model championships and engaging personality paled in comparison to her "Baywatch" body, but the native of Idaho never quite got the hang of performing on the mic. So "when the physical part of her career was deemed to be over, Torrie Wilson's career went with it," commented www.wrestlingnewsdesk.com editor Matthew Cooper, "Torrie Wilson had a heckuva career. Her pics are still viewed by thousands of people every day, and we still get huge response to her Playboy pictorials."

Torrie will reportedly continue to work on the Jaded clothing line with boyfriend Nick Mitchell.
