Earlier today, I read on the World Wrestling Entertainment [WWE] website that current Raw superstar and former Cruiserweight and WWE Tag Team Champion Paul London had been released from the company, along with fellow Raw superstar Chuck Palumbo.

In tribute of London's tenure in WWE, I figured it would be appropriate to post his recipe for "Tribal Gumbo" that was featured in the December 2006 issue of WWE Magazine.
