Here are the latest publicly reported WWE releases you asked about, based on recent coverage up to now.
-
Summary of recent rounds: WWE has conducted significant post-WrestleMania roster cuts, with multiple on-screen talents and several NXT talents reportedly released in the latest wave. Reports mention names such as Braun Strowman, Shayna Baszler, Dakota Kai, Katana Chance, Kayden Carter, Cora Jade, Gigi Dolin, Eddy Thorpe, Riley Osbourne, Jakara Jackson, Joe Coffey, Mark Coffey, Wolfgang, Oro Mensah, Javier Bernal, and others across main roster and NXT in various batches. These lists have appeared across wrestling outlets and video roundups in early 2025 and again in 2026 refreshes. Please note that release timelines and exact rosters can vary by source and are often updated as negotiations or new information emerge.[1][2][3][4][6]
-
Notable patterns in the releases: The cuts have typically followed WrestleMania periods or major roster changes, affecting both established main-roster performers and developing talent in NXT. Public reporting often includes a combination of official WWE confirmations, Fightful/WhatCulture-style roundups, and social media confirmations from the talent themselves. If you’re tracking a specific wrestler, I can pull the most recent confirmation for that individual.[2][3][5][1]
-
How to stay updated quickly: For the most current, check reliable wrestling news outlets or WWE’s official statements, and look for Fightful Select, PWInsider, or major outlets’ live updates around post-WrestleMania periods. I can summarize the very latest single-name updates as soon as you name a wrestler or date range.[3][4]
Would you like me to compile a country-by-country or category-by-category (main roster vs. NXT) tally of the latest releases, or pull updates for a specific wrestler you have in mind? I can also provide a one‑page quick-reference list with dates and sources if you want.[1][2][3]
