Independent wrestling star Jimmy Jacobs is expected to join the WWE shortly, however not in an in-ring capacity. Jacobs met with WWE officials at last week’s WWE SmackDown tapings in Detroit, Michigan and the current plan is for him to not work as an in-ring talent, but instead work on the creative side of things in the company.

Jacobs lost a Loser Leaves Town match at last night’s IWA Mid-South Prince of the Deathmatches event and is expected to be written out of Ring of Honor storylines in the coming weeks.
