📊 Impact on WWE's Future
The release of top-tier names like Braun Strowman and Shayna Baszler may change the landscape of WWE moving forward. Fans are also concerned about the future of the tag team division with the exits of Katana Chance and Kayden Carter.

Impact Wrestling and NJPW are also possible destinations.

Some may take time off before making a big return.
