Two More NXT Talents Released, Three Total Gone

It appears as if WWE is trimming their Performance Center roster.

Shortly after news broke that Tough Enough alumni ZZ Loupe was cut from the company, two more names were released in Thomas Kingdon and Josh Woods, Fightful.com can confirm.

Kingdon, pictured above, had never appeared on television, but had worked a few live events, primarily in battle royal matches and tag team contests. The most high profile match Kingdon had competed in was an NXT Tag Team Title match at Day 1 of the Arnold Classic against The Revival. Kingdon teamed with King Constantine as the “Protein Bros,” playing off of their bodybuilding backgrounds.

Josh Woods got a little more of an NXT experience, working house shows for well over a year before his release. Woods picked up wins over Blake & Murphy, Gzim Selmani, Steve Cutler, Patrick Clark, Dan Matha, Kishan Raftar, Alexander Wolfe, Noah and Bronson Mathews. Woods appeared on a recent episode of NXT, losing to No Way Jose.
