Rusev
Rusev, now going by Miro, announced on Sunday that he, unfortunately, tested positive for COVID-19. So regardless of what his next step in the wrestling world may be, it likely won't be announced this week.
prevnextI tested positive for COVID-19. Thank you for all the support. I will be okay and Miro Day will continue.https://t.co/Kpyr1LxPuP

EC3
The man formerly known as Ethan Carter III has been hard at work developing a new character on social media while also teasing jumps to Impact Wrestling, Ring of Honor and All Elite Wrestling in a series of videos.
Twitter is a sewer.

Impact Wrestling has been heavily pushing Carter's possible return at Slammiversary this Saturday.
prevnextLio Rush
While it's possible that Rush is already a free agent (if his latest contract was under NXT rather than a standard deal), the former Cruiserweight Champion has teased never wrestling again.
"I legitimately might not ever wrestle again," Rush wrote on May 4 in a since-deleted tweet.

Heath Slater
Slater made a surprise appearance on Monday Night Raw last week and wound up stealing the show with a promo directed at WWE Champion Drew McIntyre. He indicated after the show that it was a one-time performance.

The Colons
Neither Primo nor Epico Colon had appeared on WWE television since February 2019 prior to their releases. In that gap of time the pair had mostly been working for the World Wrestling Council promotion in Puerto Rico.
prevnextAiden English
Since his release, English has been focusing on his Wrestling With Whiskey brand. He was one of the many teased to appear in Impact this weekend though he's downplayed that in recent interviews.
prevnextSarah Logan
The former Riott Squad member recently announced she is pregnant with her and Raymond Rowe's (Erik) first child.

prevnextFinally got myself back to over 200 lbs. Fun fact, I hated being under 205lbs. I have been 210lbs most of my career and dropping weight to 185-190lbs sucked. I never felt like myself. But it was asked of me, so I did it. #fitness #fitnessmotivation #gym #gymmotivation pic.twitter.com/J9fs4SgSDF

Brian Myers (Curt Hawkins)
Much like Cardona, Myers (Curt Hawkins) has been counting down the days until he's free to compete elsewhere.
prevnextFreedom is coming.
