We’ve got updates to share from eWn about Tegan Nox, Baron Corbin, and Indi Hartwell who are departing from WWE.
Corbin received information confirming his WWE contract was not getting an extension. On the other hand, Nox and Hartwell have been discharged from their contracts.
Based on information gleaned from Fightful Select, the current contract of Corbin is set to lapse at year’s end. Numerous indie promoters have started showing interest in hiring him if he decides to stick with wrestling.
As for Nox and Hartwell, they are bound by a 90-day non-compete clause because of their release. This prohibits them from working elsewhere until February 2025. Nox has been off the WWE radar for over six months and hasn’t been part of any dark matches or live events. There were occasions where she attended WWE SmackDown TV tapings, though it wasn’t a frequent occurrence.
The release of Hartwell raised eyebrows as she was part of last week’s WWE SmackDown TV tapings. Her match was broadcast on this week’s show. It was pointed out that several WWE staff and fellow wrestlers noticed that she was gaining momentum lately, thanks to her entertaining social media posts.
Even though it’s not confirmed, it’s probable that Nox and Hartwell will have to arrange for their visas if they plan to continue wrestling in the USA.
Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened

Some things are just out of your control and you can only do as much as you can. Let’s clear one thing up though. I’m ready. Ive been ready. Just have to show people what they’ve missed.
