WWE Says Sayonara to Greg 'Hurricane' Helms

Wrestler Greg "Hurricane" Helms -- the guy who was arrested with Chris Jericho last month in Kentucky -- has officially been released from the WWE.

According to WWE's official website, Helms and two other wrestlers -- Maria and Paul Burchill -- were all given pink slips.

The WWE didn't specify why Helms was released -- but it could have something to do with his arrest on January 27 for public intoxication.

The WWE issued the following statement on their website: "We wish Shane Helms (Hurricane) the best in all future endeavors."
