After pushing the idea very hard on Monday's Raw and the day after online, WWE has removed all references of their invitation to NFL player Michael Sam from their website.

While WWE received a ton of mainstream media attention for their offer of an open forum for Sam, the first openly gay college football player after he was cut from the St. Louis Rams.

Unfortunately for WWE, The Dallas Cowboys began showing interest in Sam, who is expected to be added to their practice squad, should he pass a physical.


*UPDATE*

Michael Sam has signed with the Dallas Cowboys practice squad so WWE's foray into getting him on Raw is officially over.


*UPDATE*

WWE published the following on their website: "WWE.com offers its congratulations to defensive end Michael Sam on joining the Dallas Cowboys practice squad."
