WWE released a wave of talent 90 days ago, on April 24, and that batch included several main roster names who were bound by a standard 90-day no-compete clause.
That clause has now expired.
As a result, a number of the released names are free to appear on other televised wrestling programming, including AEW, TNA, CMLL, and NJPW.
Zelina Vega filed to trademark a new in-ring name, Xelina, on July 20.
The Motor City Machine Guns are expected to make their way to AEW now that they’re clear of their no-compete.
Nikki Storm will shift her attention to her new role as co-owner of PROGRESS Wrestling and DEFY Wrestling, running things alongside her partner — and former NXT competitor — Killian Dain, better known to fans as Big Damo.
Joe Gacy has also been teased for an upcoming appearance in GCW.
Featured below is a list of talent that are now able to work elsewhere:
- * Kairi Sane
* Hijo del Fantasma (Santos Escobar)
* Zoey Serrano (Zoey Stark)
* Aleister Black
* Xelina (Zelina Vega)
* Erick Rowan
* Nikki Storm (Nikki Cross)
* Joseph Sawyer (Joe Gacy)
* Samuel Shaw (Dexter Lumis)
* Bo Dallas (Uncle Howdy)
