WWE released Motor City Machine Guns, meaning Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley, along with Aleister Black, Kairi Sane and Santos Escobar in a notable round of roster cuts. Kairi Sane is a former NXT Women's Champion, Aleister Black had returned to WWE earlier this year, Santos Escobar led Legado del Fantasma, and Motor City Machine Guns are veteran tag stars. Those departures remove established singles and tag options from WWE's midcard and tag divisions and make several proven performers available to rival promotions heading into the summer.
