It’s safe to say that nobody expected Austin Aries to leave WWE so early and his sudden departure created a lot of rumors regarding the reason behind it.

Initially, it was reported that Aries asked for his release from the company due to being frustrated with the bookings and his position in the Cruiserweight Division.

However, these reports were later denied by several sources which claimed that it was WWE who let go the former TNA Star due to backstage heat.

Although, during his recent appearance on MVP’s podcast, Austin talked about his WWE departure and he indirectly denied all the reports about his release.

According to the former NXT Star, he left WWE because he wanted to take time off from wrestling due to various injuries and issues with his neck.

Continuing on the topic, he said that he doesn’t plan on wrestling for a while and he may make a temporary transaction into a role where he can talk such as being a radio personality since he loved doing commentary in WWE.

Regarding the rumors of him having backstage heat with writers and other personalities, Aries said that he doesn’t know if he had heat with anyone.

Austin Aries has a 90 days non compete agreement with WWE which ends on October 5th, 2017. Though after his recent comments, it appears that we will not see the former WWE Star inside a wrestling ring anytime soon even after this period.
