More Details on Justin Gabriel Quitting WWE

As we reported earlier today, the main reason why Justin Gabriel quit WWE is because he was unhappy with the way the company was using him.

Additionally, it’s being said Gabriel has been looking at other, non-wrestling opportunities for quite awhile now, and it appears as if one of those opportunities might have come through. Gabriel hopes to also build his name up on the indy wrestling scene, and has done some modeling and acting work before he signed with WWE.

The Very Latest on Bobby Lashley’s Injury and His Bellator MMA Status

As noted, TNA star Bobby Lashley is suffering from an injury, and it’s said to be a hand injury. While the injury is not preventing him from wrestling, as he’s currently working the TNA UK tour, there is no timetable for his return to Bellator MMA.

Lashley suffered the injury during his October 24th fight against Karl Etherington.

Lashley was hoping to fight on February 27th against James Thompson but while training, his hand would swell up during grappling or any kind of punching.
