Update on James Ellsworth's WWE Status

— In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it was reported that James Ellsworth has yet to sign a WWE contract as he is still accepting independent bookings.

— Thanks to rajah.com reader Jeremy Drob for sending in an email to tell us that as of earlier today, Ellsworth has posted a Facebook status update indicating that he is no longer accepting any independent wrestling bookings until further notice.

— With that, it appears that he has either already signed a contract with WWE or will be doing so imminently.
