Before I loose any more reputation points. I was envisaging something like this: 

sub Check_excluded_tables_list (@) {

  @tables = @_;
  @Excluded_tables = qw/Table_A/;
  
  foreach (@tables){
    $table_name = $_;
    if ($table_name =~ @Excluded_tables){
      $table_name = "";
    }
    else{
      # do nothing
    }
    push (@list_of_accepted_tables, $table_name);
    }
  
  
  #close list of all table names
  if (@tables = @list_of_accepted_tables){
    $status = "good";
  }
  else{
    $status = "bad";
    
  }
}

I haven't had time to test this code yet.
