Kairi Sane is reportedly believed to be out of WWE, adding another notable name to the growing list of roster changes happening across the company.
Fightful reported that Sane is believed to have departed WWE, though no official statement has been made regarding her status.
She last competed on the April 20 episode of Monday Night RAW, teaming with Asuka in a match against Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY.
In recent months, Sane had been aligned with Asuka once again as part of the Kabuki Warriors while also remaining connected to Damage CTRL after her return.
Sane originally signed with WWE in March 2017 and quickly became one of the standout names in the women’s division.
During her first run, she won the Mae Young Classic, captured the NXT Women’s Championship, and became a three-time WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion.
She left WWE in December 2021 after her contract expired, then returned to Japan, competing for STARDOM before making her WWE comeback in 2025.
Her return brought her back into a major role alongside Damage CTRL, reestablishing her presence on television and reconnecting her with longtime allies and rivals.
With her now reportedly gone once again, fans are left wondering what the next chapter looks like for one of the most accomplished international stars in WWE’s women’s division.
Her departure would be another major surprise during a week already filled with roster shakeups and unexpected exits.
