In a recent interview with MuscleManMalcolm, former WWE NXT talent Joe Coffey stated that all of Gallus (Wolfgang and Mark & Joe Coffey) are currently “landlocked” in the United States due to issues with the status of their work visas following their release from WWE this past May. Coffey stated “Just to cut a long story short, with the release and the contract, our visa goes with that. So we’re in the process of going through (the process of getting) a new visa, which hopefully won’t be too lengthy, it’s costly, but it’s going to be an investment. Unfortunately, now we have to be landlocked in the US. So it means we can’t work in the US, or get back to Europe or Japan or anything. So it’s just a bit of a waiting game. Being an international talent with that contract comes a visa, and unfortunately the visa goes with the contract. So going through a new visa process, we cannot leave the country. Like we only had like, I think it was 30 to 60 days to leave America. To me, that’s not an option just now, because for the past two years I’ve had a missus here, and I’m going to have to split my time between Europe and the States and maybe Japan if that comes calling. So we have to kind of be landlocked just now until that visa process goes through.” (Transcript h/t: Fightful.com)
