Werstling

As reported earlier, WWE has officially released Marty "The Boogeyman" Wright from the company. Wright was part of the Smackdown brand and had been out since WrestleMania 22.

Reasons behind his release have now become public. While out of the ring since April, Wright had been rehabbing leg injuries and was reportedly close to being ready to return to action this month. WWE management were said to have been unhappy with his commitment to return to the ring, with the general feeling being he was doing the bare minimum to get back in shape.

In addition, there were said to have been numerous issues with Wright not checking in with doctors when he was scheduled to do so. He had been warned a few times about his conduct, but despite the warnings he made no effort to change his behavior and was then let go by the company. As noted before, Wright was scheduled to return to Smackdown sometime this month as promos began airing on Friday Night Smackdown pushing his return. When they stopped airing, some people were wondering why. Now we know.

I bet that we'll see Marty Wright end up in TNA!
