Long-time WWE Security Guard Refutes Report He Was Fired Following Seth Rollins Fan Attack

Long-time WWE security guard Scott Aycock has refuted a report that he was fired by the company. 

Aycock, who worked for WWE in a security role from 2004 until recently, has left the promotion in the past couple of weeks. 

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted that Aycock had departed WWE, saying that the company has released him, writing: "Scott Aycock, who has worked security for WWE since 2004, was let go this past week. There is no word whether he was booked for Raw last week and the Rollins incident had something to do with this."

However, Aycock has now gone on record to correct the story, saying it was his decision to leave WWE and he had given significant notice to the company, before also saying he didn't work the WWE Raw show that saw Seth Rollins attacked by a fan.

Writing on LinkedIn, he said: "This attached story link about WWE releasing me and another reporting I was fired is all false and made-up. I gave significant time notice to WWE because I was presented with an awesome job opportunity.

"Furthermore, I was not at Raw the night of the fan Incident in Brooklyn recently as reported. This was totally my decision. And since I don't Facebook/Twitter/Instagram etc, whomever is feeding these sites information for whatever reason, I would rethink your motivations."
