Brooks Jensen Booted from The Culling After Shocking Steel Chair Attack on WWE NXT

Brooks Jensen just found out the hard way—he’s no longer welcome in The Culling.

During the June 3, 2025 episode of WWE NXT, what was supposed to be a normal conversation between stablemates turned into a blindsiding betrayal. While chatting backstage with Shawn Spears and Niko Vance, Jensen was suddenly nailed in the back with a steel chair. The attacker? None other than Izzi Dame, the group’s fourth member. After laying him out, Dame made her message loud and clear.

Jensen was originally the first man recruited into The Culling by Spears after the former AEW star made his WWE return in 2024. Up until now, there had been no public signs of tension within the faction. But Dame’s steel chair and cold explanation signaled a complete and public rejection.

The fallout didn’t stop there. Dame also revealed that The Culling’s match originally planned for the June 3 episode had been pushed to June 10—and it will now feature just Niko Vance and Shawn Spears in tag action.

This twist leaves Jensen out in the cold and raises major questions about where he goes from here. He was once seen as the cornerstone of the group. Now? He’s just another man on the outside.
