New details have come out on the Creed Brothers leaving WWE, including how Julius Creed was viewed backstage before the brothers departed last week.
According to Sean Ross Sapp on Fightful’s The Hump, the Creeds’ exit was called a “mutual departure” internally. Sapp said he had heard of no issues with the brothers backstage, and he had praise for Brutus and Julius from his own dealings with them.
Dave Meltzer added more on Wrestling Observer Radio. Meltzer said Julius Creed was viewed as a future WrestleMania main event talent by several people in WWE.
The brothers, real-life siblings Jacob Kasper and Drew Kasper, joined WWE after successful amateur wrestling careers. Julius signed in 2020 and Brutus followed in 2021. They debuted as the Creeds in August 2021 as part of the Diamond Mine stable in NXT.
They won the 2022 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic and the NXT Tag Team Titles, and they were called up to the main roster toward the end of 2023. They never won main roster gold, and they were barely used this year. Not counting WWE Main Event, they only had three main roster matches in 2026, a four-team bout in January and two outings as Los Americanos Hermanos in May.
They also worked several AAA shows as Los Americanos Hermanos, and they returned to NXT for this year’s Dusty Classic, where they were eliminated by Hank and Tank in the quarter-finals.
The brothers left WWE last week in a surprise departure. No reason for the split has been given by either side.
What is confirmed is the mutual departure label and the high regard for Julius backstage. What is not confirmed is why the brothers left, or where they wrestle next.
