4. Bobby Lashley’s GFW Release Demand To Focus On MMA Denied By Jim Cornette

On this week’s episode of GFW Impact Wrestling, former World Heavyweight Champion Bobby Lashley demanded Jim Cornette his release from the company so that he can focus on his MMA career.

Later in the night, Lashley and the American Top Team (his MMA team) laid out Moose and then ended up having a confrontation with Cornette backstage. Below is the statement that Impact Wrestling’s website issued regarding Lashley’s release demand:

“IMPACTWrestling.com received the following message from Jim Cornette, ‘due to the heinous actions of Lashley and American Top Team on IMPACT Thursday night, we have made the decision not to give Bobby his unconditional release from his valid contract. Lashley will be at our disposal when required. That is all.’ What that means is Lashley remains under contract. Stay tuned for more.”
