10 Wrestlers Fired For Unprofessional Conduct

"Not everyone is as professional as John Cena or Daniel Bryan" Number 9: Daniel Bryan....

[@AustDingo]

@Peter Castillo. hahahah...You say that like Simon never makes mistakes. He said that Bulldog was a WcW world champ as reason for him going into the HoF. Simon also stated that Undertaker won against Jake Roberts at WM8 by count out He referred to Big Bossman as a police officer instead of a Corrections officer

[@mobeenbadshah5586]

[@pleasenorpgs]

mobeen badshah a narrator who left with a big chunk of other narrators but got fired right before the launch of their new channel for this whole scandal with some girl

[@mobeenbadshah5586]

Please No RPGs OMG.... Wow are there still his videos?

[@XaneKudo]

The hilarious thing about the Daniel Bryan firing was because Vince was forced to do so under fear of the sponsors. Reportedly, he liked what Daniel did and was all for it. He only fired him to please the sponers, with the idea of rehiring him a few months later when everything calmed down.

[@KingGhidorah5464]

How about Jim Cornette for slapping Santino Marella for not selling the Boogeyman’s entrance in OVW?

[@Hugh_Morris]

KingGhidorah5464 Santino shoulda sold

[@Y2JWannabe93]

Well this is a list of wrestlers and seeing as Santino didn't get fired... why would that be on the list?

[@agonyst_the_cursed]

KingGhidorah5464 actually it was his exit

[@fortnitecheese79]

Cory Evans jim cornetto

[@RockandrollNegro]

Jim Cornette is neither a wrestler nor was he employed by WWE at the time, so his inclusion on this list would be dubious. (Technically, none of the talent is "employed" by WWE, but that's another story altogether.) OVW had a business relationship with WWE and were contracted out as developmental training.

[@prm1932]

Simon: Opens video by calling Cena and Bryan goody two shoes, then talks about Bryan being fired for misconduct in the second entry on the list.

[@seeingfaces]

prem sharma he said they weren’t like 3 seconds after

[@chrishubbard64]

Besides, wasnt he fired as a sacrificial lamb story rather than for really screwing up? Basically he was the fall guy for the new angle upsetting sponsors.

[@Paulafan5]

Bryan was fired to appease the sponsors and rehired ASAP. Vince doesn't strike me as someone that forgives that quickly. I'm sure he told Bryan that he was going to be re-hired when the heat died down.

[@BillWfromNY]

Daniel Bryan's popularity was messing up WWE's plans. The WWE was trying to push Wade Barrett, but the fans were cheering for Daniel Bryan who was a huge indy wrestling star.

[@A_T_F_]

[@jamieholmes4751]

I’m prepared for the hate, but I kind of agree with what Alberto Del Rio did to that employee. While I think assault was WAY too far for racism, I like how he didn’t let him get away with it as there’s no place for racism.

[@CryoJnik]

Jamie Holmes oh i do too. Prick had it coming.

[@michaelhood2109]

If you don't want to get popped in the mouth, you should probably be more mindful of what you say to people. Simple as that lol. There's no excuse for rascim. That's prob why they gave him a chance to come back cuz they couldn't really hate him for it.

[@CryoJnik]

Though whati find sad is the guy responsible suffered no discipline...other than that initial 5 finger greeting that is.

[@TravestyJunction]

Hell yeah, that clown deserved it but I can't defend Del Rio's bar etiquette.

[@VelvetMetrolink]

Making racist remarks to a 6'5" muscular angry Mexican with an MMA background. Dumb? Yes. Vile? Yes. Fucknuckle? Absolutely. Braver than me? Hell yes.

"Not everyone is as professional as John Cena and Daniel Bryan" Number 9 - Daniel Bryan... Daniel Bryan is sacked for strangling a member of staff with his own tie...

[@wallsterrence]

FrontYardWrestling99 wrong he was told no choking

[@CapHowdy]

From what I had heard in the past it was Angle that asked to be let go so he could go heal, not Vince firing him. Angle had asked to go part time, but was refused and kept on a full time schedule so he decided to jump to TNA which was on the up at the time and he knew it would be an easy schedule. I remember there being a lot of negativity aimed at Kurt by fans at the time as they felt what he did was deceitful as WWE/Vince had let him go to heal up, but instead of healing up he carried on wrestling.

[@mikemichaels1872]

CapHowdy Agreed. I also think whatculture should check their own facts because as I remember they even said in another video that he asked for his release.

[@CapHowdy]

Kurt has said many times that he asked for his release, and that Vince agreed it on the proviso that he go seek professional help, which he then failed to do and signed with TNA instead. Kurt wanted a part time schedule and also wanted to pursue acting, and leaving WWE was the only way he could do that as they would not let him do either.

[@brianstone3722]

CapHowdy I agree I heard the exact same story year's ago

[@19rayrayray90]

10 ? Wrong ! I fired people on weekly basis ! #YoureFired

[@butch1dc]

The part about warrior is only half true. Maybe less. He, in fact, did try to talk to Vince for 3-4 months prior to the night he threatened to sit out. Warrior even proved it via dated letters which were notarized. He wanted to talk to Vince who kept pushing him off and pushing him off. It got to the point where warrior figured this was the only way he could get Vince to listen to his demands. Warrior admits that he didn’t wanna ‘hold up’ Vince nor did he think it was good business practices. He stated he ran out of options and let the disrespect get into his head. Some of the info reported was true, but he didn’t just decide to hold Vince up at the last second. It’s been proven that he tried to talk to Vince months prior. I have no life btw, which is completely true.

[@matrolmem3463]

NJ Wandering News I have a different version of this. A fee months before summer slam warrior had contacted Vince about his payout. Vince actually agreed to all of his demands immediately. There has been documentation leaked (not saying either are legit or not). Immediately following summer slam Vince suspended warrior. Vince's logic was to go through with the ppv which they had already invested heavily in. Warrior was allowed back only after his demands were dropped.

[@robertt9342]

Matr Olmem . How is that different then the video?

[@ItsJustOneGuy]

Vince was known for that type of behavior.

[@garyevans4516]

While I don't like del rio as a wrestler him being fired for standing up to a racist bully was wrong. So much for wwe anti bullying

Poor Paul London

[@DavidR-hx2it]

And Jeff Hardy didn't lose to Sting at Victory Road due to a rollup! He was hit by one Scorpion Death Drop from Sting and then quickly pinned.

[@JayCaldwell05]

He went for the roll up and the ref didn’t count to 3 i think.

[@JayCaldwell05]

Or hardy kicked out something like that. Then he hit him with the sdd

[@SolidSonicTH]

He was forced into a pin. Jeff tried to kick out (and I think he even got his shoulder off the mat) but Sting just leaned in on him to make sure the pin stuck and the ref just counted through it.

[@reneriach7835]

Time stamp 1:28 on sticks and stones the 'use a bat' line made me spit out my coffee 😂😂 Damn you Miller, why you gotta make me laugh like that. Don't stop though, loving it.

Why am I not surprised that Juventud Guerrera and Teddy Hart made this list?

[@m.y1152]

Vince should've got fired for firing Punk on his wedding day. THAT is unprofessional conduct.

[@chr8985]

Vince should've gotten fired from the company he owns. That's sound logic there bud. Gold star for you

[@m.y1152]

Chris Smark sorry Mr literal

[@ryanswaynow]

Honestly at this point I think there's only one thing that can truly save pro wrestling as a whole: it is way past time for Vince to retire. he should step aside and give it to Shane

[@CLC2004]

Ryan Witherow He’ll run it till he dies then he’ll turn it to HHH.

[@inaaronshead7331]

Actually CM Punk had walked, Vince released his contract a day before his wedding.. Call it a wedding gift.. Vince could of held his contract so punk couldnt work anywhere until it was up. Why so angry when Punk chose to walk? Vince literally did him a nice favor by releasing his contract. Damn you Zealous Punk obsessed fans really dont know shit about your golden boy.. Normal Punk fans are fine.. But ones like you need to be educated.

[@demonofdeath19]

it wasn't a work, in his book he said he didn't know what to do and talked to regal, and regal told him he will be fine just don't talk bad about the company, I believe it was jericho's idea to bring him back

[@nath4093]

Simon and Jules > everyone else on this channel

[@aleksanderb.5254]

In one interview Kurt had said that he actually wanted to be released for a while and Vince agreed. Kurt had saved up the fact at the time he was talking with Dixie Carter and this so-called vacation was his chance to go in TNA.

[@v5red]

The Paul London one is absurd. I mean why would people be somber watching the boss go home? It isn't like they kayfabe knew there was a bomb in the limo.

[@andthingsofthisnature]

Del Rio first asked for an apology and then slapped that fucker when he just smiled at him. Totally understandable.

[@nycd4766]

Met Jeff hardy at an axxess once. Dude was so high out of his mind Id swear on anything this guy had no idea where he was.

[@timmutohfan]

left out, the guy that del rio slapped, was fired himself a couple years later. no one liked the guy the people that heard him say what he did, pretty much had an impromptu battle royal to decide who got to tell alberto. not that alberto had many fans backstage himself, but at least he contributed something..

[@coleymissions]

[@theghostreckon316]

Brian Pillman was in second place behind Owen Hart for being the biggest troll of the 90s, he absolutely shit on WCW and tricked them into releasing him so he could side with their rival competitor.

[@stevegallo8483]

Talk about someone being fired for unprofessional conduct. Mr. Kennedy was fired for multiple wellness policy violations. Granted Randy Orton crying to Vince about Kennedy being "unsafe" in the ring didn't help, but Kennedy was in line to be Vince's kayfabe son before being fired.

[@MrBrightSyde1997]

[@darrenspohn8376]

How can they be fired ? They are not employees. They are "independent contractors". They are under contract. You can't just fire them. Both parties need to agree to terminating the contract.

[@ryanswaynow]

[@DavidR-hx2it]

John Cena wasn't even the most professional wrestler backstage! He's cheated on his former wife with Mickie James and possibly other Women who worked for the Company. Not a true role model!

Samuel The Ham Lamb Celske he isn't proven innocent, mate.. There are no charges found filed against him.. Doesn't make him innocent, and definitely not 'Proven Innocent'.. Personally, with the kind of behavior he's had backstage at wwe, I wouldn't be surprised if he's found innocent or guilty for that matter.. But I surely wouldn't have him around me if I worked with him..

[@samurai6331]

Really? I’ve been told by many he was found innocent.

[@sub-zero6924]

Na recently a friend of the person accusing him of rape came out and said her friend was full of shit, even providing shots of text messages revealing how she was starting to fabricate the story so it really but a hole in the accusations but thats probably what you heard. What Enzo was fired for though was the fact that he was under investigation and didnt tell WWE until it fully came out pissing them off and serving as the last straw.

Since wrestlers are contractors they can't file wrongful termination against the contracting party so there was no risk on WWE's end (unless...I dunno, contract revoked because gay; but that would be discrimination, not wrongful termination, and anyone who tries to pull that deserves the consequences since there's a thousand ways to cancel a contract that aren't discriminatory anyway), it was just a potential black eye since it was over racism.
