• CM Punk Reacts To Triple H’s Statement On The Mickie James Trash Bag Incident, Other Women Comment
As we noted earlier, former Women’s Champion Mickie James received her belongings in a trash bag after her release from WWE.
WWE blamed Senior Director of Talent Relations Mark Carrano for this and he has been fired from the company.
Triple H issued the following statement regarding this:
“Upon learning of the disrespectful treatment some of our recently released talent received on behalf of the company, we took immediate action. The person responsible for this inconsiderate action has been fired and is no longer with WWE.”
Former WWE wrestler CM Punk reacted to Triple H’s tweet by using the “if you say so” GIF.

This trash bag incident has happened with others over the years as well and below are tweets from Gail Kim and Jillian Hall:
Well I’m glad Hunter took initiative but it’s been happening since before I was there. Is it always the same person? At least they did something I suppose 🤷🏻♀️ https://t.co/lrTXx4gGay

Well we will never know. I definitely believe it’s been many people over the years and if someone was fired it was the person who was sacrificed. If it changes things from this point on, at least it’s something. https://t.co/KvpwCSgN4m

Correct. Change the system and culture. Don’t blame and fire. That solves nothing. https://t.co/RZAkiWY2sM

Well in that case, every girl that worked there for the past ten years plus should get an apology https://t.co/84LpFtIjHA

Apparently I blamed the wrong person for my trash bag of ring gear over 10 years ago 🤷🏼♀️.. she’s not with the company anymore 🤦🏼♀️
