WWE released Ruff, a former NXT North American Champion, on August 6, less than a year after he officially signed with the company in October 2020. He appeared on WWE as early as December 2019 as an enhancement talent, and he regularly worked in this role before he inked his deal.
At the time of his departure, he commented on the news by thanking his fans. Before his time with WWE, Ruff starred in EVOLVE, where he won the company’s Tag Team Championship with AR Fox.
The updated card is as follows:
- Allie Katch vs. Chelsea Green
- Rina Yamashita vs Charli Evans
- Masashi Takeda and Alex Colon vs. Jeff King and Neil Diamond Cutter
