And though this is by no means a way to reach them, I'd like to thank the talented wrestlers, managers, and valets I've worked with — Billy Corgan (@Billy) November 15, 2014

Corgan was set to star in a reality show based on the wrestling organization, but we assume those plans have been cancelled.

As we mentioned before, this news comes at a busy time for Corgan, making us think he had a little too much on his plate. A new Smashing Pumpkins album is on the way and Corgan is also working on a musical entitled The 48-Hour Musicals: Encore. A press release recently shared information on this project, with Corgan stating: "My interest in musical theatre has grown throughout the years. [Music Theatre Company founding Artistic Director] Ms. [Jessica Beth] Redish, I believe, is a visionary; she's inspired me to jump into the narrative form in a fresh way."
