- Sean "X-Pac" Waltman was a guest on The Tomorrow Show with Keven Undergaro, which you can check out here. On the show, Waltman talked about being an Austin Aries fan and Aries' WWE release.
"He's [Austin Aries] great, I'm a huge fan of his," Waltman said. "It just didn't work out. There was a lot of... somebody didn't feel it. It's too bad because, their loss on that one. Here's the thing with him, he's one of these people that knows his value. Whatever they do to try and make... and when I say they, it doesn't matter what company, it doesn't work on him. He knows what he's worth, and he wasn't going to stay there and not be utilized properly. It wasn't going to work. You don't want a guy like that there."
