His contract expired, and WWE didn't offer him a new one. It's believed the reason, at least the reason they gave, was that they didn't need him for any story lines.

Ask TWO Your Wrestling Related Question

 

I have been listening to Jericho's podcast with Heyman and Edge.They were talking about when Heyman booked Smackdown, when did he book Smackdown? Just during the Smackdown six era? So mid 2002 until early 2003?

Heyman was head writer for Smackdown from October 2002 until March 2004 and in that short run he gave us the Smackdown Six and a plethora of great matches. Edited by DC

Wow, nice to finally have something to fill in the deliberate gap that the wrestling press sticks to whenever anyone asks why Savage is persona non grata at Titan Towers...

 

...but then on the other hand, awful, as I now have a mental image that I just can't seem to shake.

During the WCW/ECW invasion of Summer 2001 was Heyman and ex ECW wrestlers always going to join with WCW?

Depends when you start "always". What ended up happening wasn't anyone's first choice. Originally, WCW was going to keep running as a sister-company to WWE, sort of like ECW later, but much more equal. One of the concepts was that Nitro would replace SmackDown, so there'd be one WWF show, and one WCW show and there'd be a cross-show rivalry between the two, rather than everything being on WWF T.V.. It fell through when Vince refused to buy out the contracts of most of the big guys in WCW who were contracted to AOL itself rather than just WCW, leaving them with just the mid-card guys who AOL hadn't bothered signing. They tried out a match (I want to say Booker vs. Bagwell?) and it went down so badly with the WWF crowd that Vince got cold feet and scrapped the whole idea.

 

I would assume the ECW guys becoming ECW guys (most of them had already been established as WWF guys) was an afterthought, a way to make up for the lack of big name guys in WCW who made the transition.

Some info about him,

 

He was there for many years, but he was released in 2001 when Buff Bagwell arrived-for fear that people would mistake him for the wrestler.

 

The last decade has not been so kind to him, he auditoned for the role of Frank Spencer in the London stage production of Some Mother's 'Do Ave Em, but they decided that although the beret fit, that he was just too big for the role. He tried out for the Loverboys stripper troupe-but found that he could not maintain an erection due to the huge amounts of HGH he was on. He then did gay porn for a few years, before becoming a straight pornstar under the name Reno.
