Jimmy Yang clarifies reports.
On December 27, PWInsider reported Yang decided a job as WWE producer wasn't for him after taking the position on a tryout basis in October.
Taking to social media, Yang confirmed that he is no longer with WWE, but clarified that he did not quit, saying it was WWE's decision to not move forward and he respected their choice.
I don't particularly appreciate seeing this narrative saying that I quit. It takes A LOT for me to quit anything. Almost a month ago, @WWE chose not to move forward with me being a producer, and I was perfectly fine with their decision. #idontthinkyouseenthelastofme
