Sometimes no one is safe. According to a report from PWInsider, Sue Aitchison, the longest-serving WWE employee, has departed the company after over 38 years of service. She was reportedly released from her duties on Friday.

Aitchison was the Director of Community Relations for WWE and was widely credited for leading the company’s community outreach programs. She was directly responsible for building WWE’s relationship with Make-A-Wish and launching the company’s Wrestlemania Reading Challenge.

In 2019, Aitchison was honored with the Warrior Award, with Stephanie McMahon stating that “Sue has dedicated her entire career to helping Wish kids fulfill their dreams and putting smiles on countless families’ faces. Her heart and character epitomize the essence of the Warrior Award. She is an unsung hero who deserves to be recognized and immortalized in the WWE Hall of Fame.”

The revelation of Aitchison’s departure has shocked many long-time former WWE employees and is seen as another sign of the end of the old WWE era. Although her responsibilities had lessened in recent years, Aitchison was considered one of the true mainstays of the company, and her run working behind the scenes is unlikely to be matched or surpassed.

Editor’s Opinion:

This is the kind of thing that is truly a sign of the times; however, perhaps there was more behind the scenes than is being reported. Was she ready to retire? Or does the new administration want a total overhaul of the company? Only time will tell.
