[WWE] Updates on Tajiri and Brock

Archive

WWE.com had originally posted a story about Tajiri’s release, but it’s been pulled since he will be appearing on RAW on Monday.

PWInsider.com is reporting that Tajiri asked for his release due to burn-out and he is planning to move back to Japan to pursue writing. He has a 90 day no-compete clause.

Also on PWInsider.com are several details on the Brock Lesnar situation. For some discussion on Mike Johnson’s report, check out TheWrestlingBlog.com and PWInsider.com’s Elite Section for Mike’s full report.

Additionally Inside Pulse columnist David Ditch has sent in the following:

– WWE invited Lesnar to appear before the court on Tuesday. At that time Lesnar was flying to Japan.
– Lesnar will be wrestling in New Japan on Saturday and Sunday in his
first matches since winning the title on October 8th. Those matches were
announced on November 14th.
– Lesnar is scheduled to headline New Japan’s final Tokyo Dome show on
1/4/06 with his first IWGP title defense, and this restraining order
would jeopardize that.
