The WWE has released superstar Austin Aries per the companyโ€™s website who wished him the โ€œbest in his future endeavorsโ€.

However thereโ€™s speculation that Aries asked for his release based on what he tweeted out just before the announcement was made.

Aries was a pivotal member of the WWEโ€™s cruiserweight division feuding with Neville before ultimately losing to the โ€œKing of the Cruiserweightsโ€ and dropped from the title picture. If Aries did in fact ask for his release itโ€™s plausible his dissatisfaction stemmed from not being able to get ahead of the game in what has been a failed venture for the WWE thus far in the Cruiserweight division and 205 Live.
