Besides the likes of The Sandman, Sabu, Justin Credible and Balls Mahoney, whose ECW tenures will likely be short-term, the "ECW Original" who is most likely be to let go is Francine. Sans a five second cameo appearance a few weeks ago, Francine has gotten no television time.

When Vince McMahon personally saw Francine backstage at the One Night Stand PPV, he thought that she wasn't of "WWE woman caliber." McMahon immediately went to Johnny Laurinaitis and he asked him, "who hired someone that looked like that?"

WWE didn't drop Francine right away because her backers told Vince that they they needed a woman to work bikini contests at the house shows to make Kelly Kelly look good. For what its worth, Francine has gotten quite a few negative reviews from fans sending in house show reports regarding her physique being somewhat out of shape, at least when her body is being compared to Kelly Kelly in these bikini contests. When Francine's house show program with Kelly Kelly runs its course, unless something major changes, she'll most likely be released from the company.

I thought Vince always had a say in who would be hired?

I wonder if Francine knows that all she is being used for is to make Kelly look good... :dunno:
