TNA has released Christian York and Joey Ryan from their contracts, according to Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com. TNA has also removed Taeler Hendrix and Crimson from their roster page.

Powell's POV: At a time when WWE is stronger than ever in terms of developing talent, TNA is unloading their developmental talent. They previously released Alex Silva from his deal. The only wrestler who appears to have commented publicly since his release is York, who wrote "What to do? What to do?" on his Twitter page two hours ago.

Update: Sam Shaw was originally listed as being released. However, Johnson issued a correction and an apology regarding his inclusion on the cut list, so it appears he is still with the company as of this writing.
