Curt Stallion was reported to have signed with WWE back in October 2020, after he defeated Ariya Daivari in a gauntlet on an episode of 205 Live. Stallion went on to become a mainstay on 205 Live in the months that followed and stepped into a feud that included Tony Nese.

Stallion went on to challenge for the NXT Cruiserweight Championship before teaming with August Grey as part of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic earlier this year.

Although it wasn't known at the time, the 30-year-old wrestled his final match for WWE as part of the March 12th episode of 205 Live where he teamed with Mansoor in a win over the Bollywood Boyz. He suffered a serious wrist injury around that time, forcing him to undergo surgery and put him on the shelf.

Earlier this week, Curt Stallion was one of the stars who were released from WWE as part of the company's continued budget cuts. The likes of The Singh Brothers, Marina Shafir, Tony Nese, and August Grey were also on the list.

At the time of his WWE release, Stallion had been contracted to WWE for just over eight months.
