WWE parts ways with Baron Corbin, Indi Hartwell and Tegan Nox

Ahead of “Crown Jewel,” WWE parted ways with three Superstars.

Baron Corbin was informed today by WWE that his contract will not be renewed. Indi Hartwell and Tegan Nox will be free agents within 90 days.

The Takedown on SI independently confirmed Corbin's contract status, with Fightful Select's Sean Ross Sapp confirming the news to all three publications.

Corbin, who has been with the company for 12 years, is a former WWE United States Champion, NXT Tag Team Champion, Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal winner, and 2017 Money in the Bank winner. Corbin has made notable appearances during his time with the company, including an appearance with The Rock and Becky Lynch on the first Friday Night SmackDown on Fox, and he defeated Kurt Angle in his farewell match.

Corbin released a statement from his X account (formerly Twitter):

“That’s all she wrote, folks. It was real and I appreciate everyone who supported me.”

Hartwell is a former NXT Women's Champion and NXT Women's Tag Team Champion. Hartwell was involved in a notable storyline with Dexter Lumis on NXT and is scheduled to appear on Friday Night SmackDown tonight. First she posted Sapp's post

Nox started in NXT in 2017 and made it to the main roster in 2021. She appeared on both Raw and SmackDown and competed in the Women's NXT WarGames match in 2019. She competed in the 2024 Royal Rumble and eliminated Natalya before being eliminated by Bayley. At the time of publication, Nox has not publicly commented on the news.
