Former WWE NXT Tag Team Champion Departs Company After Getting Released

-- A former NXT tag team champion is no longer with the company. Fightfulselect.com reports that Duke Hudson has finished up with WWE. The exit is a result of WWE actually releasing him and the move went down in January.

-- Hudson hasn't wrestled for NXT since November when he competed at a house show. His name was removed from the internal roster sheet around mid-January which probably gives a good idea on when the WWE cut off ties with him.

-- Hudson worked on WWE Raw under his real name Brendan Vink but his best run with the company came when he was in part of the Chase University faction, winning the NXT Tag Team Championship last August.
