Mexico's SuperLuchas.net is reporting WWE officials never actually contacted Alex Shelley directly. Shelley has a friend who currently wrestles for WWE and that friend was the one who let Shelley know that WWE was interested in bringing him in.
Shelley reportedly wants to take a few weeks off to relax before making the jump to WWE.
SuperLucha's source also says that Shelley is concerned about being sent to Florida Championship Wrestling and feels he should go right to WWE's main roster.
