WWE has released more talents from their contracts in what has become too regular of an occurrence. This time they all come from NXT and development, and as of writing, Fightful’s Sean Sapp has confirmed Malcolm Bivens, Dakota Kai, Dexter Lumis, Harland, Persia Pirotta, Mila Malani, Vish Kanya, Paige Prinzivalli, Draco Anthony, and Raelyn Divine have all been informed they are no longer required. No reason has been specified, but in most cases, when there are mass releases, it is due to budgetary cuts.
While some of these names will only be known to the most hardcore of WWE fans, perhaps Harland is the biggest surprise. The 24-year-old 6ft 4 300-pound former college football player had been considered a future star and had been likened to Brock Lesnar due to his size and look. He had been paired in NXT 2.0 with Joe Gacy but had been absent from television recently. Given all of this, there may be more to his release than the typical budget cuts.
