Booker T has confirmed The Dyad’s WWE exit.
Rip Fowler and Jagger Reid have been known as The Dyad and The Grizzled Young Veterans during their time in WWE. They announced earlier this year that their deals with the promotion are set to expire in October of this year.
Earlier this week, it was reported that the Dyad have exited the company and are now free agents following their contracts expiring.
Speaking on his Hall of Fame podcast, NXT announcer Booker T said that the Dyad have exited the company.
“A couple of guys who just exited from the WWE as well. The Dyad, those guys just let their contract run out. They’ll be leaving the company. They may be showing up in AEW, you never know. They may be going back to the UK. Those guys were two of my favorites. I thought they had something good going. I like those guys. I hate to see them go,”

In July of 2022 James Drake and Zack Gibson, now under the ring names Jagger Reid and Rip Fowler, officially renamed the tag team “The Dyad” and turning heel once again in NXT, aligning with Joe Gacy to form The Schism.
