WWE Bringing Back Released Superstar, Looking For More Talent

— PWInsider.com reported Thursday night that WWE has reached a new deal with Lance Cade.

Cade, who was contracted with WWE for most of the decade up until 2008, was released from his contract while in the midst of a push that saw him align with Chris Jericho and wrestle his one-time trainer Shawn Michaels.

Though details at the time of his release were initially sketchy, veteran Jim Ross quickly added some color to the situation, noting, “Lance Cade was dismissed from the WWE because, like many humans, he made a major league mistake while utilizing bad judgment that cost him his job. This included Lance having a seizure on an airplane and having to have emergency medical care.”

— WWE developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling is advertising a talent evaluation clinic for December 4-7, 2009. Both WWE.com and the FCW website tease that the clinic could lead to a developmental deal with the organization; attendance costs $1,000.
