Arn Anderson Reflects On WWE Suspending Titus O'Neil For Grabbing Vince McMahon


Remember when Titus O'Neil was suspended from WWE for grabbing Vince McMahon during Daniel Bryan's retirement ceremony?

Arn Anderson does.

The AEW performer and WWE Hall Of Fame legend sounded off on this subject during a recent installment of his popular "ARN" podcast.

Featured below is an excerpt from the episode where he touches on this topic.

I’ll tell you what I think happened. Daniel Bryan is beloved my pretty much everybody that knows him. He’s just one of those guys that endears himself to you as being a legitimate guy. I don’t know anybody that doesn’t respect and speak highly of Daniel Bryan. I think the timing of him legitimately having to retire because of health issues – you saw how it affected him backstage. You saw how it affected the other talent that really care about the guy. I think it being such a somber, real moment that any other day it might not have been as bad – when Titus grabbed Vince by the wrist as he started to exit, it caught him off guard. He almost fell down.

I think that embarrassed him. It probably embarrassed him more than anyone else looked at it, but I think in Vince’s mind, it made him look bad because he almost fell. It pissed him off right away. I think in his mind, that was a big moment in one of the talent’s careers because Daniel was retiring. I’m thinking he probably thought to himself that this was not a time to be goofing and it got out of control really quick and flamed up. I don’t think there was any ill intention. I just don’t think Titus was thinking properly when he did it.
