WWE roster cuts: Braun Strowman, Shayna Baszler, Dakota Kai and more among latest releases

  • WWE released multiple performers including Braun Strowman, Shayna Baszler, Dakota Kai, and others on Friday ahead of SmackDown in 2025.
  • These cuts followed contract non-renewals and came amid ongoing roster changes, with some releases unexpected given recent activity.
  • Notable releases involved established stars and rising talent from both the main roster and NXT, such as Strowman’s second departure and Kai’s injury-affected tenure.
  • WWE’s Women’s World Champion IYO SKY expressed strong support for former stablemate Dakota Kai, calling her “strong” and “wonderful,” while fans also reacted with disappointment.
  • These roster reductions reduce WWE’s midcard depth, affect fan sentiment, and indicate ongoing strategic shifts under current leadership.
