What do you do with wrestlers who quit?

I run competting WCW and WWF circuits and recently had 2 wrestlers in each circuit suddenly quit. WCW US Champion Booker T quit without notice, as did WWF Hardcore CHampion Kane. I forced them to defend their titles until they lost them, and then they were gone.

For those of you who run competting circuits, do you let other circuit go right ahead and try to hire the wreestler who quit or do you have a waiting period or no compete peroid. I was thinking of waiting a few cards to try and rehire them in their origianl circuits before have WCW try to hire Kane and vice versa.

If they were fired, I'd let the other circuit try to hire, but since they quit I think there should be a no compete period. Otherwise it'd be like Vince's hostile take over all over again.

I would base it on thename factor. For instance, Kane would be alot more appealing for competing feds then say... C.W. Anderson. What you could do is have all three feds continuously try to hire him, until one nails him. Same goes with a Booker T., Triple H, John Cena etc. Now as far as the lesser names go, in the real world, they usually float around in limbo a bit before landing somewhere.

You could also do tryout matches with some of the lesser guys. I used to do that when I ran Raw on Carlzilla's umbrella fed. I would use Heat as 4 contracted wrestlers fighting 4 free agents, any 4* matches nailed that guy a job. (I think only Abyss was successful, and it was with Al Snow).

Just some odd ideas that may help you a bit.

You could always have your ultimate heel beat them down and take a dump on them.
