- Following the latest slew of cuts, WWE has parted ways with a total of 51 performers — 30 from the main roster and 21 from developmental. This marks the third consecutive year in which over 50 performers departed from WWE, so by that indication, at least 50 more talents probably won’t be with the company this time next year. Here is this year’s complete list so far, as there is a good chance more will be added by the end of the year:
