Arn Anderson was released from the WWE on Friday, after eighteen years as a road agent and producer for the company. However, this was not due to WWE’s recent hiring of new producers or Anderson retiring or anything like that. In fact, Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio (via Ringside News) says that AA was fired after an incident over a house show with Vince McMahon.
He said: “Arn got fired. Its an incident, I mean everyone is pretty much keeping quiet about what it was, but it was an incident with Vince. I know people who are siding with Arn. I know people who are siding with Vince. I dont know the whole details of the incident other than it was something at a house show that evidently wasnt handled well and Arn took the blame for that. Arn and Vince were not really on the best of terms. There had been a lot of situations over the years and another one not too long ago. You know the thing with Arn is hes well-liked by key people Triple H, John Cena, you know hes John Cenas agent.“
