Julius and Brutus Creed have brought their time with WWE to an end. According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, both wrestlers' contracts recently expired without the two parties reaching an agreement on a renewal. As a result, the former NXT Tag Team Champions close an important chapter in their careers after six years with the company.

The Creed Brothers arrived in WWE with a strong amateur wrestling background and made their NXT debut in 2021 as members of Diamond Mine, a faction initially led by Roderick Strong. They quickly established themselves as one of the standout teams in the tag team division thanks to their combination of strength, explosiveness, and technical ability.

In 2022, they achieved their first major successes by winning the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic and subsequently capturing the NXT Tag Team Championships after defeating Pretty Deadly at NXT In Your House. Their progress continued over the following months, culminating in their move to the main roster in October 2023, alongside Ivy Nile, where they began their journey on Monday Night RAW.

Once on the main roster, Julius and Brutus teamed up with Chad Gable to form American Made, alongside Ivy Nile, and continued to establish themselves as one of WWE's most physically imposing teams. In 2026, they also became involved in the El Grande Americano storyline, adopting the masked identities of Julio and Bruto Creedo as part of Los Americanos Hermanos, and even made appearances in AAA.

Following a period of reduced prominence on RAW, they returned to NXT in September 2026 to compete in a new edition of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. Julius and Brutus' run in the tournament came to an end on October 20 after they were eliminated by Hank Walker and Tank Ledger in the quarterfinals. That marked their final appearance on WWE television.
