WWE has been releasing one shocking news after another. One such news that left the fans stunned was the release of AOP from their contracts.

AOP (Akam and Rezar) are now officially done with the company. WWE did not make a huge issue out of this. It released a standard statement online and left it there.

“WWE has come to terms on the release of Akam and Rezar (AOP). We wish them all the best in their future endeavours.”

Currently, it is not known whether the ex-Superstars were looking to leave the company or if the company made the decision for them. Either way, a huge chunk of the fan base are of the opinion that this was definitely not expected.

Why did WWE release AOP from their contracts?

There are different speculations in circulation. Some are of the opinion that the creative team did not see eye-to-eye with them and thus, their contracts came to an end. On the other hand, it is rumored that the continuous injuries have a role to play in the release of AOP from WWE.

Akam and Rezar made their debut together on NXT during 2016. At that point, their manager was Paul Ellering. Both of them quickly became fan favorites on WWE’s black-and-gold brand.
