If he wasn't making as many themes as he used to, maybe it just makes sense financially to let him go. Yes, he has made magic at times, but nothing lasts forever I suppose.

He created some of the most iconic themes of all time. That speaks for itself. At some point you need to be let go, it was his time.

To everyone asking why Jim Johnston was still around even though this other group has been doing most of the entrance themes for the past several years, Jim was composing all of the music that's used for the Network and the company's movie studios. It's not like he was just sitting around collecting a paycheck and doing nothing.
If the company really does try to do cheap knockoffs of his work, I'd imagine he could theoretically sue depending on how similar they are. I don't understand why they're treating him like this given how long he was with the company and everything he did for them. Totally classless on WWE's part, if true.

Same typical people seem to be using this for something to be upset about. If he wasn't making as many themes as he used to, maybe it just makes sense financially to let him go. Yes, he has made magic at times, but nothing lasts forever I suppose. How many themes has he actually composed since the CFO$ were brought in? I'm not sure. But the one report says he hasn't been doing as much the last several years for WWE. And that his contract was pretty hefty. So if that is the case, while it does suck, it makes sense if they're trying to cut on their finances.

Didn't he just do Corbins new theme? If their plan is to replace all his music then why have him do a new theme for someone right before they released him?

Same typical people seem to be using this for something to be upset about. They fired a guy who was with the company for 30 years and essentially invented theme music in wrestling. I'm sorry if I don't see the good in it like you do. I know the company can do no wrong in your eyes.

But I don’t know the facts about Jim’s job and how much he was being paid. So why would I get that upset by it?

Being a real fan is all about being upset by everything and pretending not to watch it anymore yet commenting on every show.
