Kayden and Katana were also 36 and 35. Meltzer also mentioned Jakara Jackson was the one whose "lack of training" was referred to, not Gigi or Cora:

Also, listening to the actual show, he brought this up long after they were done talking about Gigi and Cora. He appeared to be talking about Jakara, if anyone.

He was actually very complimentary to both Gigi and Cora, saying they were both young and could bounce back from this.

Jakara was passed by Lash

He's been injured (major knee surgeries on both knees IIRC), hence the hiatus. I don't recall seeing any news about him getting re-signed. His contract was likely signed during the REDACTED era.

I was wrong about his time since his return (2.5 years). The hiatus was due to release which is why bringing him back then saying he's being paid too much is hilarious. Good for him to get paid but it's still funny. "Strowman, real name Adam Scherr, is no stranger to WWE cuts. He was released once before in June 2021, only to return in 2022 as Triple H began reshaping the roster."

• June 2021: Strowman was released by WWE.
• September 2022: Strowman returned to WWE.
• May 2, 2025: Strowman was released from his contract again.

He doesn't seem to have publicly stated any knee surgeries from June 2021 until now. He could have had one or more knee surgeries but there doesn't seem to be any confirmation of them.

They thought Katana Chance could’ve been a star because she was on American ninja warrior, but they never really did anything to make you think they thought that.

He missed three weeks after tweaking his knee. Obviously not a major knee surgery. It’s okay to be wrong. No one is perfect. You were mistaken about him not re-signing and you may be wrong about the knee surgeries. Clearly you want to be correct about the knees but sometimes that’s how life goes. Onwards and upwards to more important news.

She said on Chris Van Vleet's interview that she has a year and a half left on her contract. She seemed to hint that she's done being the "good soldier" and wants creative control like Becky has.

I don't see Pappa H doing that. She specifically brought up how good her relationship is with him. She's one of his original "NXT kids" and has made everything they've given her work.

According to Luchablog, 10-12 talents, there's clauses in them their previous contracts didn't. Probably standard WWE stuff.
