I tried to count the number of times Jannetty has been sacked, to my memory, from the big-time promotions.

1. The Rockers got canned in 1987 shortly after their debut.

2. The team returns in 1988. Jannetty gets the sack shortly after The Rockers split, early 1992.

3. Jannetty returns in late 1992, has maybe two matches, and gets sacked in early 1993 after losing to The Boy Toy at the Rumble.

4. Jannetty returns on Monday Night Raw in mid-1993 and wins the IC title. By early 1994 he's gone again.

5. I'm not 100% on this but I think he may have even rejoined the WWF in late 1994 and gotten canned before he ever returned to TV after screwing up on a European tour. Sounds very familiar to me.

6. Sacked (or at least had all ties severed) by ECW at some point in 1994 for no-showing a card or two.

7. Returns to WWF in late 1995, doesn't do a lot, forms the New Rockers with Al Snow. Snow gets repackaged, Jannetty gets injured and is dropped once more.

8. Shows up looking rather skinny in WCW. Released soon after.

7. Returns to WWE in the build up to WrestleMania 21. Has two matches, isn't used for months, gets the sack after getting arrested.

8. Gets probably one final chance just two weeks ago. Today WWE announces they want nothing more to do with him.

I think that covers it, and thats to the best of my memory. Any additions or amendments?
