AEW Commentator Willie Urbina Fired From The Company

AEW Spanish commentator Willie Urbina has reportedly been fired from the company.

The reason for his firing is due to the fact that he mocked AEW Women’s Champion Hikaru Shida’s accent on Dynamite.

The incident happened prior to the ceremony that was held to celebrate AEW Women’s World Champion Hikaru Shida on Friday's Dynamite on TNT.

Willie Urbina was caught on the mic doing an impression of the champion. The mics at the Spanish announce desk were left on and Alex Abrahantes was heard asking Willie Urbina to translate the upcoming promo, to which he did making fun of Asian accents.

The audio was heard on Fite TV.

Below is the audio of Urbina:

Los comentaristas en español de @AEW se han burlado del acento japonés de @shidahikaru durante la pausa publicitaria previa a su segmento en #AEWDynamite.

Esto es inaceptable @TonyKhan.

Por favor, haced RT para que lo vea la gente. pic.twitter.com/K6TYCZJwLY
