Shad Gaspard of Cryme Time pulled out of his scheduled match last night at the WWE Smackdown taping, claiming illness right before he was scheduled to go to the ring.
Sources indicated that Gaspard claimed he was suffering from flu-like symptoms, including stomach pains. He was instructed to go get medical attention, leading to JTG taking his spot in the match, literally at the last minute. He was gone from the taping by the time the match was taped.
I do want to note that there were some in the company skeptical of Gaspard's illness after the taping as he "seemed fine" until it came time to tape his segment and he was seen at the hotel after the taping. The finish JTG ended up involved in last night was originally booked to involve Gaspard.
