Guess we're about to find out how much of Otunga's lasting power as a WWE employee is related to his famous....girlfriend? I thought they were married, tbh.

On a positive note this probably means he won't be coming back to call matches. Permanent Booker T! I'd prefer David over Booker saying MMM!! after every freakin big move. |

I seem to recall the reason he stepped away from competing was because he'd had a kid and there was some friction between him and Hudson over the career choice. So if anything, maybe this means the in-ring return of David Otunga! |

Wow, she's either really stupid or really crazy. |

Just because someone files a PTO against someone, doesn't mean they're guilty or did anything wrong. Kind of disappointed we're all predicting his termination based solely off of the information that we have.

Custody fights often involve a lot of stuff like this.
Hoping it's as simple as that.

Yeah, it sounds like she's filed it to prevent him from getting custody. Kinda shitty, but it's pretty common in these situations.

He obliged for a while, and I have a feeling his return probably coincided with the marital issues. |

Kind of disappointed we're all predicting his termination based solely off of the information that we have. Well, most people are more predicting his release based off the fact that he's separating from his much more famous SO. Long has been the assumption that Otunga's only been kept around because of his connection to Hudson, on the off chance that WWE could use him to lure her into an appearance. Without that carrot, there's....no real incentive to keep him around, because he's mediocre across the board. |

Dude is supposedly undefeated in court, worked for Sidley Austin (6th biggest law firm in America), was the laboratory manager for Columbia University, and of course is a Harvard Law Grad. He is an extremely intelligent accomplished man and you don't find good lawyers like that easily and of course he became a professional wrestler. It never amazes me how wrestling fandom caused many intelligent academics to drop everything and become professional wrestlers instead. |

Yeah, a guy with Otunga's credentials isn't somebody you just let go because of a breakup. |

I remember reading that Hudson said he wasn't "pulling his weight" in the relationship. Meanwhile, it was reported that he was making about $250K a year with WWE.
Now, I know that's probably not a lot compared to what she has or makes, but what kind of f***ed up world or relationship are you in where making $250K a year isn't pulling your weight?

Disappointed that everyone would so quickly jump to the conclusion that he's hit her. Even if she did accuse him of that it could be BS to get the kids.
