Road Dogg, Brian James, says he quit WWE and was not fired.
Jonathan Coachman claimed on his podcast that James was fired from WWE’s creative team over his support for Chelsea Green, which was shown on the Netflix series WWE: Unreal. Fightful Select later reported that at least six sources denied Coachman’s claim and said James left on his own.
James responded on X.
“I quit!!! @ImChelseaGreen is a national treasure NO MATTER THE NATION!!! I saw the writing on the wall. I’m hearing others are being pushed out too lol. Growth hurts sometimes. But just the ones YOU HURT during it,” James wrote.
James left WWE in March. In April, he said the WWE schedule “was just moving too fast for me,” and that leaving would give him more time with his children and grandchildren.
