Luther Reigns Update
According to various sources within WWE, the release of Luther Reigns from the company yesterday had to do with Reigns actually requesting it. Reigns felt he wasn't being used to his full potential as he was getting up in age and would have a shorter timeframe to perform in the ring. From what is understood at this time, Reigns voiced his concerns to those in WWE management before WrestleMania 21 instead of opting to voice his opinions behind their backs.

It should be noted that there is no heat regarding Reigns' decision to leave as he reportedly wanted to spend more time with his real estate investments he had in Arizona, which is where he lives. He didn't rule out the possiblity of returning to the company down the line, but the general opinion among many in WWE was that he used his time in the business to set himself up financially to work on real estate projects. This is a very common thing other talent in the business do, including Dawn Marie among others.

Reigns leaving the recent European tour last month had nothing to do with his release for those wondering. He was simply sent home due to illness.

LOL

Well, I wish him the best of luck with his ventures in real estate. He was a relatively talented hoss, and while I have no idea how he was like as a person, I never heard anything bad about him. So good luck baking in Arizona.

Yeah, just thought I would update everyone since this isn't on the news page. Plus I think it's nice to know that he wanted to be released, since everyone's been saying how unfortunate it was.

Hahaha, hell yeah, I love to read stuff like this. Remember that first thread about this and people were all flipping out like "WHY FIRE LOOTHAR RAINS?!?!?!!!!11 STOOPID WWF!"

And I was all like, "Chill, maybe he wanted to leave".

Yeah bitch.

What a jerky post this was. Anyway, best wishes to Horshu.
