First of all what root instructions did you use and second do you have the sbf file for reverting back? I knew root was established but I did not know if there were methods of reversal.

You can't do an OTA/Firmware update with a custom recovery (well, generally speaking), which is what CWM is. You'll need to either manually flash the stock recovery .img through Odin, or as huskur said, reflash the entire system image (.sbf is Moto only, FYI - but same concept ).
