More departures are hitting WWE’s developmental side, and Tyriek Igwe is now among the names confirmed gone.
According to Fightful, Igwe has departed WWE as talent exits continue across both the main roster and WWE NXT.
Igwe had been part of the High Ryze tag team alongside Tyson Dupont, who has also departed WWE. Dupont is currently recovering from hip surgery.
Igwe’s last match took place at an NXT live event on March 20. That bout marked his only match of 2026. His most recent televised match happened in December, when he competed during an appearance tied to TNA Wrestling.
His departure adds another NXT name to the growing list of WWE exits as roster changes continue to stack up across multiple brands.
Do you think WWE released too many NXT talents in this round of cuts, or is this just part of reshaping the roster? Drop your thoughts in the comments.
