According to fightful.com, here is the latest information on the futures of former Impact Wrestling stars Lashley, EC3, Chris Adonis, & Laurel Van Ness following their departures from the company…

* Lashley: He is said to have “his pick of the litter” of where to work, but he’s not that interested in working a full-time schedule at this point. he hasn’t has an MMA fight in over a year and wasn’t put into Bellator’s heavyweight tournament. There was a lot of bad blood between Lashley and WWE when he left a decade ago, but he’s looked at as a commodity, and WWE has cared less about age and schedule of late.

* EC3: He asked for his release back in November. He left on excellent terms with the company, and got along well with Scott D’Amore & Don Callis. He reportedly has several suitors interested in him.

* Chris Adonis: He is done with Impact, but a WWE run likely isn’t in the cards for him.

* Laurel Van Ness: WWE’s interest on her grew after Van Ness showed her range as a performer over the course of 2017. Many expect her to be signed by WWE in 2018.
