WWE News: Austin Aries Released From His WWE Contract

If we have to pick any one popular name from the WWE Cruiserweight Division, Austin Aries is surely going to be the front-runner. Despite all the negativity around the WWE Network special show, he has always managed to garner some reactions from the crowd. The fans kept quite in the most of the matches from the lightweight roster but they always kept chanting his name during his matches.

There was a time when we thought that Austin Aries would be the one to finally dethrone Neville from his championship reign. They had squared off in three consecutive PPVs which are Wrestlemania 33, Payback and Extreme Rules. In the last one event mentioned in this list, we were quite sure to witness a title change.

However, that did not happen and moreover, WWE has given a shocking news to the fans. As per the official Twitter handle of the company, Austin Aries was released from the company’s contract. No reason for the move was clarified by them.

Following the tweet, the official website of the WWE has released this statement which him best for his future in pro-wrestling:

“WWE has come to terms on the release of WWE Superstar Austin Aries. WWE wishes Aries the best in all of his future endeavours.”

This came as an abrupt announcement for the WWE fans, as they wished to see A-Double holding the Cruiserweight Championship to take forward the division. His presence on the 205 Live show was much needed when it comes to the TV ratings and producing marquee matches. So, the IWC is still recovering from the bombshell announcement.

Austin Aries responded to the tweets posted by WWE in a cheerful way to indicate that he was not frustrated with this decision. Rather, he was in good mood after being a free agent in the pro-wrestling circuit.

It certainly supports the rumours that he was not happy with his position in the WWE. The company was also facing problems regarding the bad attitude of the superstar and him being an injury-prone for most of his WWE career. This might be the reason that the Creative never handed him with the Cruiserweight title and make him unhappy about it.
