Following his loss to Shane Strickland at a CZW event last night, Former Ring Of Honor Star announced that August 5 will be his final appearance with the promotion.
PWInsider is reporting that Rush was in Orlando earlier in the week where it is believed he was offered an NXT deal with a signing to follow.
Ring Rust Radio interviewed Rush earlier in the week where he was asked about his interest with WWE
"Of course, I feel like everybody's long-term goal should be in the WWE," Rush said. "If you hear anybody say the WWE would never be my main goal, that's complete bulls---. We all grew up watching WWE; there wasn't any other thing on TV other than WWE. WWE was the main reason people wanted to actually become a wrestler. My interest in WWE again is through the roof. I haven't been contacted by WWE, but the playing field right now with the cruiserweights, and that's been somewhat of a main focus with them, it drives me to become better. It puts a bit of a chip on my shoulder and makes me a little bitter because that is considered to be the best cruiserweights in the world. So for me to not be a part the same conversation with the best cruiserweights in the world with the biggest promotion in the world, it just makes me want to be there that much more."
