WWE is still planning on bringing in a new set of prospects in September and another in January. However, they’re going to need to free up some room and that’s why releases are expected. The releases are expected to affect mainly the NXT talent who are rumored to be on the chopping block and that the releases are expected to take place over the course the next month and to expect at least a dozen cuts by the end of the year.

Developmental coaches were recently asked to submit reports on who they think should stay and who they think should go. No word on what those reports look like, but they’ll be something WWE executives will go over as they make roster decisions for the fall then winter.
