LANCE CADE RETURNS TO WWE

World Wrestling Entertainment signed former WWE World Tag Team champion Lance Cade last week to a new contract. Cade, who had a previous run with the company from 2001-2008, reported this week to WWE developmental Florida Championship Wrestling.

Cade, originally trained by Shawn Michaels and Rudy Boy Gonzales in Texas, had a previous run with the company, most notably his tag team with Trevor Murdoch.

Cade had been receiving his largest career push, working as Chris Jericho's second during a feud with Michaels when he was suddenly released in October 2008. WWE announcer Jim Ross reported at the time that Cade was let go after he had a seizure on a flight that required emergency treatment with the belief being that something Cade had taken caused the seizure.

Since departing WWE, Cade had been working for the NWA's Championship Wrestling from Hollywood TV project and made appearances in Japan.
