Julius and Brutus Creed have departed WWE following the expiration of their contracts, according to multiple reports. The brothers were moved to the alumni section of WWE’s official roster page, a change that typically indicates a talent is no longer with the company. WWE has not issued an official announcement regarding their status.
The exit comes shortly after the Creeds made a surprise return to NXT on September 1, attacking Noam Dar and Romeo Moreno. Their run was short-lived; on October 20 they lost to Hank Walker and Tank Ledger in the quarterfinals of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic after Brutus accidentally distracted the referee.
The duo’s main roster momentum had stalled earlier in the year. In May they competed on Raw under masks as Los Americanos Hermanos alongside Chad Gable’s “Original” El Grande Americano, and their last main roster match was a loss on the May 18 episode of Raw. They subsequently appeared primarily on WWE Main Event.
The Creeds were standout performers during their initial NXT run, winning the 2022 Men’s Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic and the NXT Tag Team Championship before being called up to Raw in 2023. They joined Chad Gable’s American Made stable in 2024.
Now free agents, the brothers would strengthen any tag team division. If they sign with All Elite Wrestling, several compelling matchups await. Five potential dream matches include challenges for the AEW World Tag Team Championships against The Young Bucks, a clash of styles with FTR, a storyline-rich feud with The New Level (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods), a hard-hitting encounter with Gates of Agony, and an immediate insertion into a top storyline against Mark Davis and Jake Doyle of the Don Callis Family.
