Andre Chase has officially confirmed he is no longer with WWE, sharing an emotional message with fans after his release.
Taking to social media, Chase posted a heartfelt video where he personally addressed the news and reflected on the journey that made Chase U one of the most memorable acts in NXT.
He explained that when he first signed with WWE, he was told very clearly that he was not expected to become an on-screen star. The original plan was for him to work behind the scenes and help develop younger talent rather than become a featured television personality.
According to Chase, fan support completely changed that path.

He said that support helped create moments he never expected, including championship success and becoming a true part of WWE television.
Chase made it clear that those accomplishments were not his alone, giving credit directly to the fans who helped turn the idea into something much bigger.
While confirming that his WWE chapter has officially ended, he also made it clear that his professional wrestling career is far from finished.
He teased future appearances and bookings beginning in June, telling supporters to stay tuned because he plans to keep wrestling and hopes to be in a town near them very soon.
His departure adds to a growing list of WWE exits happening across the roster, as several talents have either confirmed releases or sparked speculation about their futures.
Andre Chase built a loyal following through personality, consistency, and the unique identity of Chase U, turning what started as a smaller role into one of NXT’s standout stories.
Now, with that chapter closed, fans are already waiting to see where he lands next.
One last TEACHABLE MOMENT‼️
I couldn’t have done it without U 🙌🏼
