Horrible news. As far as I'm aware, Roberts literally devoted his life to the dream of becoming an announcer for the WWE. I'm not sure if the guy ever even wrestled.
Sucks to see a true fan have his dream taken away from him, probably at the expense of some bimbo who didn't know WWE existed until she got the call.

guys relax. He's wasn't fired. His contract ran up at midnight and they didn't renew it. Simple as that.
He's lived his dream for almost a decade now, didn't he start announcing for wwe in like 05/06? I'm sure he is very content with that.

That's a damn long career. I don't think anyone should feel bad for him. I'm sure they parted ways on good terms. Maybe Justin is ready to move on in life |

Strange, he did his job well. Not sure what they would be looking for.
Unless he wanted out or something.

This is really good imo. He wasn't that great. Not sure how he ever got the Raw spot to begin with. The guy lost his job and you're saying the situation is really good? |

He is a great announcer and I'm surprised he was fired. IMO being "let go" is the same as being fired. A real slap in the face to Roberts seeing as they have nobody to replace him aside from Garcia.

Yeah, this is surprising. He seemed so passionate and enthusiastic about WWE. Why would they get rid of him? Two things IMO: budget cuts and the rise of Eden Stiles (I heard rumors that WWE Officials really do like her). |

Kind of a weird one this as I really do not see what more anyone could want from an announcer. i guess they must have someone lined up who is going to be much cheaper. I think he did a great job and he seems like a really nice guy as well. hopefully he will find something pretty quick

I never said he was fired. He lost his job and as a result you said the situation was really good. No twisting on my part. |

He lost his job and as a result you said the situation was really good. No twisting on my part. It's really good that we can get a new, fresh voice ring announcing Raws and PPVs. It's really good that Justin Roberts got to live his dream for over 10 years Its really good that left because his contract ended and didnt get renewed and wasn't fired on bad terms. That's what's really good. Not that he "lost his job" or whatever "situation" your talking about. From all reports I've seen, his contract ended at midnight. And the parties didn't agree to renewal. What's the situation man? Every time someone leaves the company it's not because they got the shaft. |

I hate to see a fellow Roberts guy lose a job.

God I hope Eden or JoJo don't get called up for a permanent position as Raw ring announcer, they both have voices that go right through me. I liked Justin, it's a shame his time is up. I'd rather have Lillian back over those other two.

"WWE has chosen to not exercise its option to renew ring announcer Justin Roberts' contract. Effective immediately, Roberts is released from WWE."
There was no negotiations going on here. WWE made the decision to not offer him a new contract, essentially saying they do not want him anymore.
