The news broke last month that Arn Anderson was fired by WWE. This came after an alleged incident where he allowed Alicia Fox to wrestle while intoxicated.
Arn has now been confirmed for the Starrcast II convention in Las Vegas. This will be his first appearance since being let go by WWE.
Anderson was recently interviewed by Sports Illustrated, where he made his first public comments since his firing.
Here is what Arn said:
“I was fortunate enough to work with WWE for 18 years.
Certainly that provided my family and myself with a nice living, and I have no regrets. A lot of my best friends still work there.Everything has a shelf life, and I guess mine ran out.”
He also briefly spoke about his appearance at Starrcast:
“It used to be a dangerous setting when they handed me a live mic. So we’ll see if it will be again.”
