anyone know on what terms he left or the full story. He should honestly be honored in some form or fashion his music shaped our childhoods.

I really do hope this was a mutual thing where he wanted to retire

How old is he?

edit:

From the WWE Rumor Mill: Reason why Jim Johnston was fired from WWE

God this is why I hate stupid corporations sometime...How do you end someone like that without discussing it with him or giving him a chance to leave on better terms with a payout package and retirement deal plus hall of fame/WWE doc or tribute video

Man, if JIm Johnson aint a first ballot Hall of Famer




Sad they couldn't lock him down for life. Kevin Dunn means more than Jim Johnson? Wow.

But who will carry Vince's balls in his mouth?:ohhh:

That's fukked up if he doesn't receive any royalties, him and 2Pac helped to create the soundtrack of my life

#metoo:mjcry:

If heel Jake Roberts was wrestling today he'd probably have some generic rock theme with screaming. Instead Jim GAWDston blessed us with this

And being able to still hear remnants of his face theme:wow:

It just solidified that Jake was now consumed with evil:wow:



this shyt is still crack rock.

Another casualty of the WWE tipping point. Pyro, talent, couple PPVs, half empty arenas and now Jim Johnston. I gotta tune for ya, the canary in the coal mine.

Talent? There’s more talent than ever before.

I like the way you think breh:ohhh:

The thought process:

STEP 1: Find Jim
STEP 2: Record with Jim
STEP 3: DOOTDOOTDOOTDOOTDOOTDOOTDOOT
STEP 4: Profit :blessed:

I also much prefer them to other Wrestling stan rappers like Smoke DZA and Action Bronson.:manny:

Johnston's themes are the best. His themes truly captured the gimmick of the wrestlers. Vince only has loyalty to his family. :hhh:

Word is, it came down to money of course. He wanted to stay and he's on contract but they've been working with the generic crew more and they're cheaper
