WWE’s Quiet Release of NXT Talent Post-UFC Merger

Published on

Unannounced Departures from NXT Roster Amid Corporate Changes


Summary
– WWE, following its merger with UFC under TKO Group Holdings, has discreetly released several NXT talents.

– The list of unconfirmed releases includes Alexis Lete, Alivia Ash, Ghi Eburno, among others.

– These changes reflect the ongoing restructuring within WWE, impacting both corporate and roster levels.

WWE has recently undergone significant changes since its merger with UFC, forming TKO Group Holdings under Endeavor’s umbrella. This corporate shift has led to numerous firings at their headquarters as they transition to a new location, impacting both the corporate staff and the wrestling roster. Interestingly, some of these roster cuts, particularly in NXT, were private, leaving fans in the dark about certain departures.

The comprehensive list of people released since the UFC merger is extensive, including over 100 corporate employees and several from the roster. High-profile names like Dolph Ziggler were among those let go. Fightful’s Sean Sapp, behind a paywall, revealed that WWE just recently confirmed the releases of NXT talents such as Alexis Lete, Alivia Ash, and Ghi Eburno. These releases, which reportedly occurred in September, were only confirmed through sources to Fightful after inquiries were made.

This secretive approach to talent release raises questions about WWE’s current strategy and its impact on the NXT brand. Having trained at the WWE Performance Center, the released individuals may soon emerge in the indie wrestling scene or other promotions, showcasing the skills they developed under WWE’s tutelage.

The situation underscores the wrestling industry’s dynamic and often unpredictable nature, especially in times of corporate restructuring. As WWE continues to evolve and adapt in this new era, the wrestling community watches closely to see how these changes will shape the company’s and its talent’s future.
