There’s conflicting reports on what exactly led to Austin Aries’ surprise departure from WWE last Friday (July 7), with sources not even able to agree on whether he asked for his release or was let go by the company.
Regardless, the man himself seemed upbeat in his few social media postings since news of his exit went public, and that tone continues in his official statement, Tweeted out earlier this afternoon:
