It feels like WWE is more reliant on factions than ever before right now, particularly on Raw where there are four different groups somehow operating on the same show.

While groups like 946 are white hot right now, others are in need of a refresh. While more creative investment is the best path forward, an easy way WWE can breathe new life into a faction is by changing its line-up, and there are many groups that have members who could be cut out.

Here are three WWE stars to potentially be removed from their faction:

Paul Heyman – The Vision

The October 12 episode of WWE Raw saw Paul Heyman attempt to recruit the services of the company’s top young superstar: Oba Femi.

Heyman has spent almost the entire year in storyline with Femi, with “The Ruler” facing off with Brock Lesnar on three occasions throughout the year, and then moving into a program with The Vision – a group which Heyman has been a part of since its inception in Spring 2025.

Heyman’s relationship with The Vision has been frayed to say the least lately, with “The Oracle” seeming disinterested in what the group has been doing for the majority of the year.

Heyman going as far as to try and recruit Femi may prove to be the final straw for Bron Breakker and company however, and it wouldn’t be overly surprising to see The Vision permanently cut ties with the Hall of Famer in the coming weeks.

Roxanne Perez – The Judgment Day

Fans anticipated that Roxanne Perez may have already had one, or both feet out of The Judgment Day clubhouse by now, yet that has proven to not be the case.

The Money in the Bank victory that seemed to be on the cards instead went to Tiffany Stratton, and Perez has gone back to playing a sidekick role to Woman’s World Champion Liv Morgan.

It hasn’t been all bad however, as Perez did pick up a win over WWE Women’s Champion Chelsea Green last week, but the long-term hope is still to see “The Prodigy” break free from Judgment day once and for all.

Whether that comes at WrestleMania 43 or earlier, it’s a matter of time before Perez oversteps what Liv Morgan perceives to her bounds and the pair end up clashing inside the ring.

Jacob Fatu – The Bloodline

We finish up with a far less certain faction removal, and that is Jacob Fatu departing The Bloodline in favor of a spot in the 946.

This is something fans have anticipated could be on the cards since 946 first broke onto the scene on Raw, and despite Fatu being run over by 946’s Jaida Parker last month, some are still convinced “The Samoan Werewolf” could still join up with the group.

Fatu very much fits in with the 946 aesthetically and obviously has extensive history with Royce Keys which has already been tapped into by WWE.

With team Bloodline and team 946 currently having four male members a piece ahead of WarGames, it will be interesting to see which side Fatu lands on.
