There was much speculation when Austin Aries left WWE, with regard to why he was parting ways with the company. One of the reasons speculated was that he was left out of the WrestleMania 33 DVD. Aries clarified that the reason was very different indeed.

There's a tweet I put out, that garnered some headlines, telling everyone that the Wrestlemania 33 DVD was available in Canada on Blu-Ray, unfortunately one of the best matches of the night was left off the DVD.
He went on to clarify how the Tweet went viral and caused wild speculation.
And so people took that and made it into 'one of the reasons Austin Aries left is because he was mad his match wasn't on the DVD'.

Why did Aries leave WWE then? Simply because the company had nothing for him right then.
Let's wish Aries all the best in the independents.
