#3 Darren Young
Why did Darren Young leave WWE?
WWE released Darren Young, Emma and Summer Rae on the same day in October 2017.
Emma’s exit drew the most attention, as she was feuding with main-roster newcomer Asuka at the time, but it also came as a surprise that Young was let go after an eight-year spell with the company.
He had been away from the spotlight since January 2017 due to an elbow injury and he was never reintroduced to television.
Will Darren Young return to WWE?
Darren Young has mentioned in various interviews over the last year that he is open to performing for WWE or AEW in the future.
The former Prime Time Player said on The Roman Show in December 2018 that he was “invited back with open arms” to a WWE event in Los Angeles last year, adding that he could potentially be an ambassador for the company one day.
