The fallout from WWEs February 27 roster cuts is still sending shockwaves through the wrestling world. Akam, Rezar, Paul Ellering, Sonya Deville, Cedric Alexander, and Blair Davenport are all on their way out of WWE, and now, Karrion Kross has seemingly responded in his own way.
Shortly after news of the releases broke, Kross took to Twitter and posted a black-and-white photo featuring himself, Scarlett, Akam, Rezar, and Paul Elleringhis Final Testament stablematesriding together on a bus. There was no caption, no explanation, just an image that spoke volumes.
In the photo, Kross sits in the front wearing sunglasses, while Scarlett takes the selfie, flashing a subtle smile. Akam and Rezar, seated behind them, hold up their middle fingers, while Ellerin sits to the side with a smile. The picture, though simple, instantly had fans talking.
The timing couldnt be ignored. WWE had just cut AOP and Ellering despite their return being in the works for months. The trio was originally expected to be a major force, especially after being paired with Kross, who remains part of the company. However, reports suggest AOPs outside business dealings created some heat behind the scenes, and after the collapse of the Wyatt Sicks storyline, there were no creative plans left for them.
Sonya Deville was also informed that WWE would not be renewing her contract, meaning shell officially become a free agent in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, Cedric Alexander is serving out his 90-day non-compete clause, with AEW sources already speculating that members of The Hurt Syndicate might push for him to join the company. Blair Davenports release, on the other hand, reportedly came down to WWE having no creative direction for her, despite her main roster call-up.
With WWEs internal rosters still not fully updated, many are wondering if more cuts are on the way. Meanwhile, Kross post raises more questionswas this his way of saying goodbye to AOP and Ellering, or was he sending a message to WWE itself?
