The 9 Wrestlers WWE Just Released

Jaxson Ryker is now the only ex-Forgotten Sons member remaining in WWE.

Steve Cutler was let go in February, and his partner Wesley Blake has just followed him out the exit door. That's remarkable when one considers that the Sons problems only started due to Ryker's outspoken nature on social media when it came to sensitive, non-wrestling matters.

Blake (alongside Cutler) found a brief reprieve as one of 'King' Corbin's heavies, but WWE never seemed truly interested in making that work. In fact, Corbin's goon squad were only around for a few weeks before the idea was scrapped.

Now, Wes is a free agent. Of course, like last year, there's always a chance that the company will reconsider and bring some released faces back. Blake might not want to depend on that though - not when wrestlers have more options than at any point in the past 20 years.
