As reported earlier, WWE released The Boogeyman (Marty Wright) this afternoon. The release was a bit of surprise since they had been pushing his return on Smackdown relatively hard up until a few weeks ago when it was abruptly forgotten. The reason he was let go was because he upset management.
Wright had been out of action since April due to bicep injury. WWE officials weren't pleased with his commitment - or lack thereof - to get into better physical condition during rehab. The feeling was that he was doing the bare minimum in regards to getting back into shape. Also, he missed several doctor checkups in which he was supposed to go to. Management warned him about this on a few occasions, and when he didn't change his behavior, they decided to let him go.
Wright got his foot in the door via Tough Enough 4 in October 2004. He was kicked out of the competition for lying about his age, but WWE decided to give him a developmental contract two months later anyways. He developed his "Boogeyman" persona in Ohio Valley Wrestling during the summer of 2005. He appeared on a few Smackdown house shows, but he hyperextended both knees, thus delaying his television debut. The Boogeyman finally made his TV debut in October 2005. He stalked a bunch of people, ate worms and soundly defeated several lower card wrestlers before feuding with JBL and Booker T. During the week prior to Wrestlemania 22, The Boogeyman tore his left biceps during a warm-up house show match with Booker T. There was some thought given to cancelling the match, but it ultimately took place and he defeated Booker T & Sharmell in a handicap match in what would ultimately be his last appearance in WWE. A few days later, Wright was put back on the injured list as he had to have surgery to repair his left biceps tear. Several vignettes were shown on Smackdown during the last month and half to hype his return, but that's obviously off the cards now. The Boogeyman went undefeated throughout his entire time in WWE.
