8 Signs WWE's Latest Brand Split Is Dying
7. Several Stars Are Calling It Quits
There simply isn't enough attention from WWE's Creative Team to go around these days with the roster being as big as it is between Raw and SmackDown Live.
Even with the Brand Split, there are still several superstars who feel they aren't being pushed at the level they should be. Dean Ambrose is a prime example of this, because before recently reuniting with the rest of The Shield, he was foundering with zero direction on Raw.
Thus, Ambrose's desire to leave the company when his contract expires next month should come as no surprise. He has virtually accomplished it all on both brands, and although the Brand Split helped make him a bigger star at first, it's apparent he's had enough and wants out.
Tye Dillinger and Hideo Itami already requested and were granted their releases from WWE. According to various reports, The Revival, The Usos, Andrade and several others could be joining them sooner rather than later.
With an alarming amount of talent looking to leave WWE in the near future, officials may be forced to eventually abolish the Brand Extension to make up for all their losses.
