The New Day & Two Others Gone From WWE As Post-WrestleMania Releases Continue

Last week, 24 departures from WWE were announced as part of the company’s reset post-WrestleMania. On Saturday, several more Superstars went from being on the active side of the roster to being moved towards the “alumni” section of WWE’s website, including the remainder of The New Day’s Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods.WWE CCO Triple H awaits a question from the crowd Slaven Vlasic/Getty Images

Speaking of a former WWE Tag Team Champion, Tonga Loa, along with JC Mateo (formerly known as Jeff Cobb), were also announced as part of today’s releases. They, too, were moved down to WWE’s “alumni” section.

Having previously wrestled under the name of Camacho in WWE, Loa made his second return to the company at the 2024 Backlash PLE (premium live event) . Mateo would debut on the same PLE just a year later in 2025. Both men acted as the muscle for Solo Sikoa’s New Bloodline turned MFT’s.

Loa’s last match in the company was on the WrestleMania 42 go-home edition of “WWE Raw,” where he, Sikoa, and brother Tama Tonga lost to LA Knight and the Usos. Mateo’s final match was on the April 24 edition of “WWE SmackDown,” where he and Tonga unsuccessfully challenged for the WWE Tag Team Championships against Damian Priest and R-Truth. Neither Loa nor Mateo were featured on Friday’s “SmackDown” in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Stayed tuned with Wrestling Inc. for more information on these departures in the coming days.
