Cedric Alexander reportedly re-signed contract with WWE

Cedric Alexander is staying with WWE for the foreseeable future as Fightful reported that he re-signed a new deal with the company this past spring.

No other details were reported other than the deal is for multiple years.

During a virtual signing session Friday, former Hurt Business stablemate MVP said he thought Alexander had re-signed.

The 35-year-old first debuted for WWE in the 2016 Cruiserweight Classic. He then made his main roster debut in August 2016 as part of the cruiserweight division and won its title at 2018’s WrestleMania 34 before losing it in October of the same year.

He went on to join the Hurt Business faction in 2020 and eventually held the Raw Tag Team titles with Shelton Benjamin for nearly three months through March 2021. He also held the 24/7 title three times.

Since July, Alexander has been on the NXT roster and picked up a win over Brooks Jensen at one of July’s Great American Bash episodes was also the last time he was in action. Along the way, he also aligned with Ashante Adonis which began with SmackDown dark matches in late-2023.
