One WWE faction is now a member down after they brutally took out one of their own, raising questions over their future in the company.

NXT has not been a happy place for factions in recent months. Meta-Four went their separate ways when Noam Dar made his long-awaited return to NXT. Dar and Lash Legend are now the only members still on the WWE roster, as shortly after the split, Jakara Jackson and Oro Mensah were both part of roster releases.

Tony D’Angelo was betrayed by Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo, leading to a huge match between those two, with questions remaining over where Luca Crusifino’s loyalties really lie.

Since he arrived back in WWE, Shawn Spears has been looking to build a group capable of tormenting the rest of the roster. Spears signed Niko Vance and Brooks Jensen up to be part of The Culling before Izzi Dame also arrived in the group after she betrayed D’Angelo as well.

But now, The Culling has culled one of their own.

Izzi Dame Kicks WWE Star Out Of The Culling

On the June 3rd edition of NXT, The Culling were backstage discussing Jensen and Vance’s tag team match on the following week’s show. Izzi Dame then brutally laid out Brooks Jensen with a steel chair to the back, declaring, “He’s out.” Dame noted she didn’t believe Jensen was committed to their cause, and Spears agreed. The tag team match will now feature Shawn Spears teaming with Niko Vance.

Given what happened to Meta-Four and the fact WWE is still in cutting mode, as seen by R-Truth, Carlito, and Sarah Logan all being told their careers in the company are now over, it remains to be seen if WWE is keeping Brooks Jensen on its roster.
