A WWE faction has officially broken up following Saturday’s (September 30) NXT No Mercy premium live event.

With Jagger Reid and Rip Fowler both expected to be leaving WWE later this month, the future of their Schism faction with Joe Gacy and Ava Raine has been unclear.

Gacy has now made a definitive statement on the group.

During No Mercy, a backstage video was shared, revealing that Gacy has declared the Schism ‘dead’, ending his alliance with Ava Raine.

Both stars have deals that are due to expire in October 2023 and it was previously reported that the pair were still expected to leave WWE.

NXT commentator Booker T has confirmed that the two stars are expected to leave WWE soon, recently sharing his thoughts on their departure.
