WWE did absolutely nothing with her ever since Mandy left, so this is likely for the best.
The trios with Pax and Shotzi had legs, now Pax is left. Even gave them a team name. Why waste their time if they’re gonna drop them?WWE did absolutely nothing with her ever since Mandy left, so this is likely for the best.
They never had an official team name. Chemical X was gonna be trademarked even if they tried. Also it's not like HBK and co. knew they were gonna release them months later after forming. Gigi was literally on NXT TV this past week so it was clearly a surprise. Sometimes releases came from out of the nowhere.The trios with Pax and Shotzi had legs, now Pax is left.

He didn't do these. There are people above him that made these decisions, which was stated in the reports. He's not like Vince where he's head of creative and the owner. He's just head of creative.
HBK has stated in the past in interviews that call ups and releases happen on little to no notice and he has no control over it. If they had these names lined up for a week why did they have them used in stories on multiple shows? A lot of the NXT/Evolve talent had stuff going on just before this happened.
I wouldn't say that it came out of nowhere. But mind the source Cornette told stories of them having shyt going on in OVW and the office would just call someone up. Or make someone cut their hair to film vignettes and shyt. Or just drop people in from the main.There’s no way these releases “came out of nowhere.” At minimum, Trips had these names lined up since at least last week. They just broke up Meta 4. He didn’t make the list overnight.![]()
Riley, Javy and Gallus were all just featured on Evolve recently. Riley had a match a few Episodes ago. Javy was doing a story where he kept losing and hinted at making a gimmick change. Gallus was shown on this week's episode requesting a match with Swipe Right. Makes me wonder if they will just edit that out of the next broadcast.I wouldn't say that it came out of nowhere.

And that's when shyt wasn't as aligned like the system is now. So yeah it feels odd that they've been featuring some acts and then boom cut em. Riley Osborne or Gallus or Big body javy getting the axe after not being on screen lately makes sense.
Gigi a week removed from a title match in a decently popular NXT tag team or Jakara who is basically on weekly that was also in a fairly popular tag team getting cut does feel unplanned
