WWE Black Wednesday 2021 Releases - Where Are They Now?

4. Kalisto

Tucker Eddie Kingston
AEW

Under his original Samuray Del Sol name, Kalisto made one appearance for All Elite Wrestling that was ultimately memorable for all the wrong reasons.

A middling match alongside Aerostar against FTR didn't exactly help his cause, but a tweet referencing the late Brodie Lee made matters exponentially worse. Amidst a public back-and-forth with Chris Jericho and Amanda Huber due to spelling Jon Huber's name as "Jon" and allegedly invoking his legacy without being a particularly close friend, the former WWE Cruiserweight Champion apparently caught some flack in the locker room as a result and wasn't used again.

He's since wrestled for Triple A and GCW, and, as Octagon Jr, will likely remain a fixture on live shows if not national television.
