So what's the deal with this guy? one.....why in the freaking world did WWE ever let him go?
Also, why was he Cornettes lacky for so long? Was he working on his in-ring skills? Injury? Was it just the plan all along to use baby steps (which I am not against)
This guy seems to be the absolute prototype for the 5 tool superstar. He is a good speaker, got great size and doesnt come off as some cocky greasy idiot.
I demand answers !!!!!

IN WWE he wasn't as much of a monster because the WWE star is bigger than the TNA star on average (in size) In TNA he is a legit monster. Much improved in ring and good on the mic. He'll be used greatly in TNA

I thought he left because he didn't like all the traveling?
Perhaps you are thinking of Lesnar?
I think Matt Morgan was released by the WWE.
Thank you wikipedia.
