After 18 years working as a WWE producer, Arn Anderson was let go by Vince McMahon’s company in February 2019. Wrestling Inc. reported that the Hall of Famer allowed an intoxicated Alicia Fox to perform at a live event, which is what led to his release. However, the man himself has never confirmed or denied that rumor.
Speaking on this week’s ARN podcast, Arn Anderson recalled the conversation that he had with his wife after he was fired.
Arn Anderson added that most people would enter panic mode if they unexpectedly lost their job. In Anderson’s case, he was “absolutely thrilled” to leave WWE because he had been smart with his money to prepare for retirement.
