<p>Maria Kanellis was released along with her husband and a number of other stars back in April, since WWE wanted to cut their budget while the COVID-19 pandemic was on-going.</p>



<p>The former Impact Wrestling star had given birth to the couple&#8217;s second child merely two months prior to their dismissal and the company had told Kanellis that being a parent for the second time wasn&#8217;t a problem.</p>



<p>More than two months after her release, Maria took to Twitter today to take a shot at her old bosses for being the only company that released superstars during the current pandemic as well as releasing her just after giving birth for a second time.</p>

<p>Various reports since the wholesale WWE releases took place have made it clear that WWE could have still made a profit without making any budget cuts, but the company still decided that a talent cull was needed.</p>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">There record numbers say differently.

<p>Maria hinted that she had more to say on this matter, which means that this could be discussed on the star&#8217;s new Podcast which is called Non-Essential Wrestlers.</p>



<p>Kanellis also tagged Non-Essential Family in the Tweet, so their podcast could be an interesting listen when it&#8217;s released later in the week.</p>
