Alicia Fox allegedly showed up to a recent WWE live event intoxicated and still worked the show, which apparently was the reason for Vince McMahon firing Arn Anderson (since Arn allowed it). Alicia has not worked any WWE events since Feb. 10.

"Arn Anderson was fired for letting Alicia Fox work a match drunk."
That's just so weird.

InFoxicated.
More like The Enabler.
Seriously, if true, this is very bad on both their accounts.

Arn absolutely deserved his firing if that's true. Like, oof.

Wow... If true I oddly really respect WWE for their decision (even if I think being fired for it might be a step too far). Alicia needs help and firing her is in no way going to help her but Arn should have known better than to send her out if he knew. The mature thing would be to help the person who is getting intoxicated at work and punishing those who allow it so I agree with this decision and am surprised at the level of maturity they showed especially considering Arn seemed like a lifer there.

If that's what the cause was then yeah, they were right to fire Arn. Besides just being a serious danger and highly irresponsible, it also opens up the company to a potential massive lawsuit if something goes wrong.
As for Alicia... I wouldn't outright fire her for this but I would certainly be putting her on the bench and trying to get her to get her shit together.

I don't disagree with the decision to let him go, because an intoxicated performer makes an already dangerous job significantly more dangerous, but Alicia needs to be disciplined too. She's not a small child - it's not just the "parents" fault. She put her co-workers' well being in jeopardy. There has to be more of a punishment than a stint in rehab. I'm sure there's more news to come.

Arn needs to hit the door if that's the case. That's endangering Alicia and whoever she was working with.
As for Alicia, she needs help. Put her in rehab. I can forgive her given she wasn't in the right mind state so correct that. Arn on the other hand, that dude was sober. He's got no excuses.

If that's true about Arn then it's good he was fired. Irresponsible and dangerous.
That's some TNA Jeff mess and should never have happened.
Hopefully Alicia gets the help she needs (assuming that the story is all at face value).

She’s been woth the company for over a decade she should know better as well. I mean... Deciding potentially years in advance to release her even if she gets her act together seems unbelievably disproportionate. By all means they should penalize her and I certainly wouldn't trust her in any sort of position of prominence for the foreseeable future, but taking an approach of that sort kind of crosses the line into being vindictive. Not to mention there's a fair chance it'd undo any good gained from being in rehab to begin with. |

Has she had a history of alcohol abuse?

I could have sworn she had a DUI, but I seem to be making that up. |
