5 former WWE Superstars who retired in 2021

#4. Former WWE Superstar Jordan Myles

Former WWE Superstar Jordan Myles made his pro wrestling debut 14 years ago. He then spent 12 years wrestling in different promotions, including Evolve, Lucha Libre AAA World Wide, and IMPACT Wrestling.

Nonetheless, the 33-year-old signed a developmental contract with WWE in February 2019. A month later, he made his NXT debut at a house show. Myles first wrestled in WWE under his real name Albert Hardie Jr. However, WWE later changed his name to Jordan Myles.

Myles' WWE run only lasted a few months. He competed in 47 matches before getting released from his contract in November 2019. During his time in WWE, he won the 2019 NXT Breakout Tournament. The 33-year-old also challenged Adam Cole for the NXT Title once but came up short.

Following his departure, Myles competed on the independent circuit and in New Japan Pro-Wrestling. Nevertheless, he announced his retirement from in-ring action last June in an Instagram post.

"No need for the dramatic or emotional word play. As of today I will officially step away from professional wrestling. Thank you all for the support and love," he wrote.

Although he retired four months ago, the former NXT Superstar is yet to reveal his plans for the future.
