From what I've seen, the guy seems like a massive douchewad behind the scenes, so I'm good with it.

Anyone who dabs doesn’t belong on television.
Even Goldberg’s son.

Yep. Sucks, seeing how the WWE is celebrating Ric Flair's 70th birthday on Raw soon. I'm kind of hoping for a 4 Horsemen reunion. Now I don't think it'll happen. How come Arn was let go? I haven't heard a reason yet. I'm guessing budget cuts?

Thank god, this is a positive for WWE rather than a negative.
Could not stand him, he was beyond boring to watch and was nothing special. I like video games but his whole video game gimmick pissed me off every time i saw it, couldn't help but cringe at it. Plus he dabbed... #FireTJP successful.
His tattoos look stupid as well, it's like a child just slapped stickers all over their body.

I haven't heard a reason yet. I'm guessing budget cuts? Pretty sure that's basically the reason, with all the new backstage guys they're hiring they decided to let him go. There was probably a million other people they could have let go over Arn but whatever. aEw CoNfIrMeD.

TJP is my 10th favorite SuperStar of all time. Yes, it has everything to do with the fact that he's Filipino. I loved his CWC Tournament finals attire. I was so happy to see Mattel make it. I also have his basic. Was there anymore TJP figures??

That's weird. I was just thinking about him yesterday. I was trying to remember if he was still on the roster it if they had released him yet. Seriously.
This is the rare talent that should have stayed in TNA. They probably would have used him better.

I didn't say it was a lot better but at least he was being used sporadically. But his run as Manic and shortly after that was pretty decent.

Perkins was his best when he was under that Suicide costume, where we didn't have the annoying video game gimmick, we didn't have his douchy face to look at and we didn't have that god damn dab.

AEW!! AEW!! AEW!! That T-shirt company is gonna get a lot of released WWE stars wearing their shirts now! I know you're mocking them but I felt like this was the perfect way to segue into this: Remember when fans complained how TNA was snatching up WWE cast offs and awarding them titles only to have them lose to the founder? How is AEW any different? Why is no one complaining Cody books All In (from what I understand) and while he doesn't main event, walks out holding the NWA Title. Jeffy Jeff did that for like 15 years in TNA and people wanted him dead after the first run. Everyone wants AEW to sign up WWE Talent. Fans hated TNA signing WWE talent. Tna signed old wash ups and pushed them and never made their own stars. Aew has a chance to push young stars while creating their own. If they play the long game, everybody wins.

Eh, he was a great talent but seemed like a bit of an ass, so no big deal.

I just read on Lords-o-pain that he & Vince had a disagreement & an argument backstage at a house show. He & Vince didn't see eye to eye & this was the last straw. Its speculated that Arn will work as a producer for AEW.

He probably never even requested it, WWE probably saw him speaking out and getting a bit brave on Twitter and made an example out of him. Can't say I'll miss him. Never cared for him, his entrance music was the only good thing about him. He's in his mid thirties and dresses like a 16 year old boy. And he's always had this weird relationship with underage female fans on social media. He's a manchild.
