Mods? Might be time to unlock the releases thread and merge before the storm comes. Right now, no confirmation if it's more than Kota and Bivens, but it would be weird if it literally is just two names. If SRS says more are coming, that's usually the indication more are coming. Would be weird if it was just two people.

Sadly I figured that would be it for Dakota. Waste of a talent, she's dope. Hope she lands on her feet in a company that will appreciate her. As for Malcolm Bivens, he will undoubtedly he her manager. The best manager in the business today. Sad man. They'll be fine but it's sad that 2 great talents weren't used to the level they should have been. I feared this was coming for her. She'll do well, but still pisses me off and out of respect, I was optimistic but no more. Maybe I should force my lazy a** to delve into her Evie work instead of dropping the project since it might be a good resource to her fanbase now. If anyone can help with backstory, video content or even twitter promo send me DM. She should have been called up way before. We knew this would happen based on what they've done. Roddy is...ugh man. He just signed a contract not too long ago too.

Roddy and Io are all that is left of the black and gold brand now. Put them on the clock. Candice Lerae, Dexter Lumis, Cameron Grimes, Fabian Aichner, Joaquin Wilde, Santos Escobar?

He just signed a contract not too long ago too. They were the two most tenured members of the 2.0 roster. On the plus, Roddy can be with his friends and wife. And Evie and Nixon can have their tag team reunion tour. But still it sucks to see what the E is doing. One of the best rosters and now its less.

Bives has the best wrestling twitter account hands down. He's so funny. Any wrestling company should offer him a ton of money.

Unfortunately I figured Dakota's days were numbered with her not being on TV the last two weeks and still not being called up.
Diamond Mine is really going to go down hill without Bivens as he was the voice of group. Now Mr. Personality Roderick Strong I guess is going to be the mouth piece going forward which does not bode well for them at all. At this point they might as well just split them all up into different acts as there's really no point for them to be together any more anyways.

Dakota will go down as one of the most underused talents in NXT history relative to how good she is.
And that was true under Triple H as well.

I thought she was used fairly well with her initial heel turn (although some will argue she should have won the title) she had the Tegan feud but then as soon as she failed to dethrone Io for the title they completely changed to making Raquel the focus and it was just downhill from there for her.

A shame that Dakota never got a fair title reign in NXT. Hoping she has better luck elsewhere. Roddy and Io are all that is left of the black and gold brand now. Put them on the clock. Candice Lerae, Dexter Lumis, Cameron Grimes, Fabian Aichner, Joaquin Wilde, Santos Escobar? Releasing a current champion would be dumb, but somehow, I wouldn't be surprised.

Grimes seems to be safe Lumis and Escobar should be on main roster but I can see them letting go of Lumis or whole group of Escobar

What a waste. If there are more releases coming, I think Sarray and Io are done for. Wow.

I’m glad Bivens was voluntary, because dude is money that nobody should be firing ever.
Dakota is just not shocking, and I await an indie run full of potential, both in singles and maybe tagging with Nixon again.

She should have been the one to dethrone Shayna. The story was right there. But instead they turned her heel when she’s a natural Babyface. But her push did not really grow that much. Also having her lose to Raquel was a poor choice as well.

I'd be stunned if they released anyone in Legado but I mean I was also f***ing assuming Hit Row would be ok so... Candice and Aichner seem like they'd be on the potential list of cuts unless WWE has it in their head that if they keep Candice they can get Johnny back. Aichner had his whole group leave him for the main roster. Lumis... idk, feels like his momentum peaked at the wedding and fizzled out since... which makes no sense to be because the character felt like something Vince would love. Grimes SHOULD be the safest here, they release him? They deserve what they get.
