WWE has cut some talent from the NXT/Evolve rosters as of Friday. Previous names confirmed have been PJ Vasa and Wendy Choo.
According to Sean Ross Sapp, four more names can be confirmed.
First, Adriana Rizzo is no longer with the company. A staple in NXT during The Family faction, Rizzo joined WWE in 2022. Rizzo worked many multi-women’s matches but did have a feud with Jaida Parker during The Family vs. OTM timeline. Rizzo was best known for he character work. She went out with an ACL injury in 2025 and had just recently returned as an interviewer in EVOLVE
Next we have Anya Rune. Rune was a part of the most recent WWE ID program group. She debuted for WWE under the EVOLVE brand in April. Her indie name is Airica Demia.
Ellen Akesson is the next cut as she never made a television debut. She is a Swedish powerlifter who went by the moniker Ellen Viking. Her signing came earlier this year in March.
Lastly we have Ukrainian talent, Zena Sterling. Much like PJ Vasa who confirmed her release earlier today, Sterling started with WWE on LFG. She appeared on all three seasons. She has been wrestling on EVOLVE and most recently was in a number one contender match four way which was won by Skylar Rae.
Diva Dirt wishes the best for all.
