5 WWE Superstars who were released in 2018: Where are they now?

#2 Rich Swann

Swann as Cruiserweight Champion, and is currently Impact's X-Division Champion.

With his exciting offence and oodles of personality, Rich Swann seemed to be the next big thing in the WWE's new cruiserweight division.

Defeating The Brian Kendrick on the pilot episode of 205 Live, Swann captured the Cruiserweight Championship in 2016, with things seemingly going great for the Baltimore-native.

Things quickly changed in December 2017, when Swann was indefinitely suspended due to domestic violence against his wife, and was later released in February 2018.

Despite this, Swann has become a big success following his release from the company, joining Impact Wrestling in June that year, with Swann's contract being a multi-year deal.

Recently, Swann achieved a high point in his brief time with Impact, capturing their X-Division Championship at the company's Homecoming event in Ultimate X, besting Ethan Page, Jake Christ and Trey Miguel, showing he has plenty left to give.
