The wrestling industry will get a little more interesting this week with the wave of free agents following WWE’s latest talent cuts back in September, with stars including Mustafa Ali, Dolph Ziggler, and Matt Riddle becoming free agents.
Following the merger of WWE and UFC into TKO due to the acquisition of the Endeavor Group, WWE cut a lot of wrestlers across the main roster and NXT in September.
Although most NXT stars are under 30-day non-compete clauses, there were some main roster stars still under their same deals who were working in NXT and had to wait out the 90-day non-compete with the rest of the main roster stars from Raw and SmackDown.
On December 21, the following names will be free and clear to sign with any promotion they want:
Ali, Aliyah, Shelton Benjamin, Rick Boogs, Dana Brooke, Dabbo-Kato, Elias, Quincy Elliot, Yulissa Leon, Mace, Mansoor, Riddick Moss, Riddle, Shanky, Top Dolla, Ziggler.
