WWE Star Tehuti Miles Exits After Six Years

Ashante Adonis, who performs as Tehuti Miles, announced on social media that he is closing his WWE chapter after six years. He first appeared on Raw in 2019 as Elijah King, and he signed with WWE in August 2020 as Ashante Thee Adonis. He helped form Hit Row with Isaiah Swerve Scott, Top Dolla, and B-Fab, and the group was called up to the main roster in October 2021. Adonis, Top Dolla and Scott were released soon after, while B-Fab remained with WWE. They were brought back in August 2022, with Adonis moving between SmackDown and NXT and last wrestling on the June 24 NXT episode before confirming his departure. Fightful later confirmed that the exit stems from a contract expiration, a detailMiles shared in a social media post.

Miles’ departure underscores how WWE manages a roster that blends long runs with rapid shifts in direction. The period also highlights how creative leadership changes influence who stays on a given show and who moves on. For fans, the announcement feeds a pattern of roster churn that keeps the league’s storylines flexible and the market for talent fluid. The bigger question is what Miles does next and how WWE will describe his next chapter to the audience, signaling that personal narrative and business strategy are increasingly intertwined in modern wrestling.
