WWE Roster Cuts: Multiple Talent Released

WWE has made significant roster changes with several talent being released from the company. Cedric Alexander announced his departure after eight years, and Fightful confirmed he was indeed let go. Authors of Pain (Akam & Rezar) also left, along with Blair Davenport and Paul Ellering, a WWE Hall of Famer. Additionally, Sonya Deville’s contract will not be renewed when it expires in a few weeks.

Former AOP members returned to TV last year as part of The Final Testament faction, feuding with Bobby Lashley and the Street Profits at WrestleMania 40 before facing Wyatt Sicks later in 2024. Sonya Deville led Pure Fusion Collective as a heel faction upon her return in 2024. Further updates on this story will be provided as more information becomes available.
