James Ellsworth Fired, Thrown Out of the Building by Paige on WWE SmackDown Live

James Ellsworth's appearance on WWE SmackDown likely didn't go the way he planned, with him ending up unemployed and thrown out of the building.

General manager Paige took offense to Ellsworth's criticism during Tuesday's show, firing the wrestler before physically kicking him out the door:
