Oh wow. Did their contracts not get renewed or are they releases?

Justyn

INDI?!?!

Michael Branson

Can you clarify yet if these are voluntary, cuts, or contract expirations?

Laquita Momon

I saw Tegan Knox leaving but Indi leaving actually makes me sad.

thaddperkins

Well this sucks to see on a Friday. I know they’ll land somewhere soon though and be thriving.

Forceofwilliam

Contract expiring or release? I'm kind of surprised about Indi as she has been active on TV recently.

Kyle Cotton

Baron and Tegan I’m not surprised. Indi feels incredibly frustrating given how she’s always been able to get everything she’s involved in over.

Justin Reid

Aint Indi in a match airing tonight? Of the three thays the only one that really shocks me.

James Pittman

I am going to Miss Indi, Baron, Tegan Nox they are great wrestlers when they leave WWE.

Ali Khan

I would absolutely take Baron Corbin in AEW!

Chris Kessler

I feel bad for all 3. Teagan always got back luck with injuries. Indi was onto something winning the NXT title before being hurt and then forgotten about. Corbin worked his ass off the get better, did so and was the poster child of shit booking in the late Vince era. HHH never had any interest in him it seems. Corbin should go to NJPW, he low key would kill it out there. Indi has a lot of untapped potential that AEW could use. TNA seems like a good spot for Teagan to rebuild her career.

Chris Kessler

I think he could kill it in a tag team there but he might have more upside as a singles guy in Japan.

MB

Indi is a big surprise as I thought they were pushing her with Candice. Unfortunately it did seem there was nothing for Baron and Tegan though.

Brandon

I did NOT expect INDI at all. I bet the girls are so sad for her. WOW

Rei

Oh fuck..

Matt Hennessy

Corbin was a Vince guys kind of feels like once Vince was out of power his days felt numbered. I was never a big fan of Baron but his second run in NXT was great & The Wolf Dogs definitely should of had a run together. I guess he falls in the Lashley Boogs Elias & Moss tier been a favorite of the old regime not the new one. Nox just never got going unfortunately not her fault got to blame the new regime for that. Hartwell very surprising her & Candice have had regular tv time & I was enjoying there heel act & they had a feud with Candice & Bsyley set up. Indi wasn’t a great wrestler but her being Candice heater could of been a good role

Kaleb Cenite

I thought people did away with Non competes? Wasn’t there just a big thing about that like a month or two ago?

Ripner Cabbit

WWE pays there workers during the non-compete so it isn't covered by that law change. That was more for tech industry stuff where they don't allow you to work in the same industry for a certain amount of time and DO NOT pay you during that time.

Mohamed Saffee

Writing was on the wall for Corbin unfortunately. Really wish he got a fair shot on the main roster under his current gimmick

Rj

They haven't done a damn thing with tegan in months and she posted something recently where she hinted at being frustrated over WWE having nothing for her. I'm sure she will land somewhere else,they will all be fine

UntoldUnknown

Bro Tegan Nox again??? God that fucking sucks for her

Alvin Porras

Indie will debut at Grand Slam Australia and Tegan around that same time?

GC

Tegan doesn’t surprise me at all, Indi sort of does, but I’m shocked at Corbin’s departure. He wasn’t doing anything in the ring, but he’s apparently very well-liked backstage and always seemed like one of Triple H‘s guys, I thought for sure he’d be a lifer and they’d move him into a producer role or something.

Justmask

WWE’s aren’t legally qualified as non competes like the ones in legal litigation because wwe pays talent through the duration of them

Craig Robertson

Damn that sucks, I really like Corbin, think he has been criminally under used, would love to see him in AEW.

Marq

Honestly not really surprised by any of these. Maybe Baron. But Indi and Tegan never really did much for me.

Waltrezel

At some point they gotta actually build up some guys they aren’t using, rather than just jumping at every WWE cut

Jamal Johnson

So are these like contract expires I know ?

Benjamin Brown

NXT Women’s division is so deep that they were bound to start cutting some women. It sucks, obviously, because it’s never a good thing to see people losing their jobs, but it’s a competitive business and if you aren’t moving up you’re probably going to move out because there’s always another crop of young and talented performers coming up behind you. Teagen, unfortunately, kind of got derailed by injuries. That’s the bit that is particularly harsh to me about her getting let go. As they say in the NFL all the time, though, sometimes the most important ability is availability.

Greg Luca

Tegan Nox said on Instagram last week, behind the subscription paywall, that she had been very sick for the past couple months but was looking forward to coming back soon. So, that explains why she was so scarce on TV, at least partly.

Alexander Coulson

With consistently signing more and more talent while leaving their current to do nothing, releasing Indi is genuinely close to my breaking point with consistently watching WWE.

Sokun Ros

What happen to Candice LeRae now? Indi and here were a team

Stephen Bradley

Do we know how management decides on who gets cut whenever they decide to do Rounds Lack of plans on their side, in-ring/ promo quality etc

Stephen Bradley

Also who makes the final say on these, TKO heads or creative??

Christopher J. Avros

Tegan should have left for AEW last time when their roster could have used her. I feel badly for Corbin. He gives them whatever they need from him.

Justin Wilson

Indi wrestling on Smackdown right now is wild. I know they pre-recorded it but still. Your match is being televised on the day you got fired.

Anthony Ramos

What happened that all you journos started labeling releases as “departures” feels icky bro
