There has been an update on the WWE contract status of a Hall of Famer making appearances for multiple different promotions recently.
Over the past few weeks, WWE Hall of Famer John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield has been making a number of surprise appearances outside of WWE, with him appearing at recent AAA, TNA and GCW shows, among others.
With JBL’s recent appearances, it has led to some questions in regards to his WWE status, and if he still had a contract with the company.
In an update from PWInsider Elite (via WrestlingNews.co), JBL is still currently under a legends deal with the company that would allow him to appear elsewhere, so long as he doesn’t violate any WWE Intellectual Property, which is why he has not been using the ‘Bradshaw’ name during his appearances.
WWE are said to have no issue with Layfield making outside appearances, seeing it as no different to other WWE Hall of Famers appearing elsewhere.
In regards to JBL’s future and a potential return to the ring at some point down the line, PWInsider was not able to confirm either way whether that would be the case.
