Sonya Deville, Cedric Alexander, AOP, and others gone from WWE

Several WWE Superstars were given the axe yesterday including AOP, their manager Paul Ellering, Blair Davenport, Cedric Alexander, and Sonya Deville.

Alexander, the former member of The Hurt Business, announced via social media he is no longer part of WWE and will be a free agent in 90 days. He was recently part of the NXT roster.

“Thank you for the last 8 1/2 years! Being a professional wrestler has been a dream of mine since I could form memories and I will continue to do so till the good Lord says otherwise,” Alexander wrote.

AOP and Ellering were part of The Final Testament with Karrion Kross and Scarlett but that didn’t go anywhere much. They were brought back to the company in 2023 and were sparsely used on television.

Davenport has not been used on WWE television since November and lost her way in the pack after she was called up from NXT. The 28-year-old British star has been under a WWE deal since 2021.

And the last, and somewhat surprising, departure is Sonya Deville. Deville is part of the Pure Fusion Collective with Shayna Baszler and Zoey Stark and has been with the company since 2015. PWInsider reports that her situation is that the contract is not being renewed so she will become an instant free agent when her deal expires in a few weeks.
