TNA Wrestling has released ex-Women's champion Angelina Love (aka Angel Williams) from the company, reports PWInsider.com, in what amounts to a stunning blow to TNA's Knockouts division.
The TNA Knockout and one half of the The Beautiful People tag team had a work visa that was either about to expire or had already expired. Without a valid work visa, TNA can not legally employ the Canadian national anywhere in the United States, making her an effective non-entity.
Love's release comes at an inopportune time for TNA. The entire concept of a women's tag team title was built around the notoriety achieved by The Beautiful People faction of Love and partner Velvet Sky. Without Love and her heel skill set, the act no longer exists. Since Love can't even get a final write-off, TNA won't get a fair resolution of her storyline.
If/when Angelina Love can get her visa issue resolved, TNA could still bring her back into its fold. Of course with Love now a free agent, WWE would also have the same opportunity. Ultimately though, Angelina Love has to take care of her own legal concerns before she can resume her path to pro wrestling stardom.

This is not good. She was the anchor of the Beautiful People and was better at cutting heel promos than Velvet Sky. I hope this working visa mess works out so TNA can get her back. Terrible blow to the Knockout Division since she was an effective heel and was getting good heel heat.
