Freddie Prinze Jr leaves WWE - 1st March 2009

Scooby-Doo star Freddie Prinze Jr has quit his job working for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).

The actor, an avid wrestling fan, joined the company's creative team in July 2008 contributing to weekly television shows for the SmackDown brand.

However, the star had not been seen at a taping of the programme for several months, leading to rumours of a rift between Prinze Jr and wrestling bosses.

Prinze Jr left the company last Friday after swapping to a part-time role within the creative team, according to PWInsider.com.

A representative for WWE could not be reached for comment as WENN went to press.
