WWE made a round of 11 NXT cuts that were revealed on Friday afternoon with former NXT Cruiserweight Champion Drew Gulak as the most notable name included.
Both Fightful and our Bryan Alvarez verified the list of those cut.
Gulak recently came under fire after former WWE star Ronda Rousey accused him of pulling at the string on sweatpants she was wearing backstage at an event.
Gulak said it was an accident and it was later reported that WWE investigated the claim. Gulak, who had been competing in NXT as of late with the No Quarter Catch Crew, was removed from their opening video last month.
He had been part of WWE since 2017, mainly competing on the then-205 Live show in addition to some appearances on both Raw and Main Event. After being cut in May 2020, he was quickly brought back.
He remained on the main roster through January 2023 when he headed to NXT. His last match there was in March of this year.
The 37-year-old held the Cruiserweight title for over 100 days in the summer of 2019 and was a multiple-time holder of the now-defunct 24/7 title.
Here's the full list of names that were released with several of them coming from the recent Next Gen series on The Roku Channel:
