One such release was former Chase U member Riley Osborne, who had been off TV since the Chase U split in November 2024.

No longer featured on NXT, Osborne had instead been working WWE Evolve tapings, and despite his matches airing more recently, he actually suffered an injury and underwent surgery on March 7.

At the time of his release, he still wasn’t medically cleared for a return.

However, providing another update, Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Live reported that he’d been told Osborne had been vocal about not wanting to be moved from NXT to WWE Evolve.

Alvarez said:

“One of the big things was, there are people that they want to go and help out Evolve. And I was told he did not want to go to Evolve, and he made it very well known.”

This comes after Dave Meltzer previously reported there were “non-wrestling things” and “certain things that happened” outside of the ring with Osborne leading to his release.
