WWE NXT star Solomon Crowe, aka Sami Callihan prior to signing a WWE developmental deal in 2013, has left WWE, PWInsider.com has confirmed. The story making the rounds is that Crowe requested and received his WWE release yesterday. We don't know more than that at this time.
All material related to him has already been pulled from the WWE website.

Crowe, 28, had built a nice following for himself with his work in EVOLVE, CZW, Dragon Gate USA and Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, among other independent promotions before signing with WWE. If he's returning to the indy scene, he'll have an easy job getting regular booking

/Pwinsider Elite.

Welcome back Callihan death machine.

Where does he go? Back to Evolve or does he give ROH or TNA a run?

Jumping between Realities.
Back to EVOLVE, PWG, CZW, the place he was at before WWE.

tbh, it's quite understanding why he left, he had been on TV for a while since the summer and all that's happened is that he's been jobbed out with no push or direction despite the hyped up debut he had.

So much potential, wasted. At least he'll have more of a spotlight elsewhere.

I would be upset but they dropped the ball with him multiple times.
Hopefully he'll make a quick return to the indies.

It's times like this the WWE sucks, like they hire these amazing indie guys and they just throw them out because "they don't look good", Crowe totally deserves better and will find better

It just sucks because the originally planned gimmick they were running with Sami was perfect for him. But by time they debuted him it was cut, and instead he was an ungeround savoir with only pieces of the hacker gimmick alive.

Not only that, but the finisher they gave him was so lackluster. Ambrose stopped using the headlock driver, why couldn't he use it? The one thing going for him was his music, but even that was taken away after the first couple of weeks.

Sami could've made it, they just didn't even give him the tools to try and craft an opportunity.

Better off being his own boss. Glad he found his new home.

His new home will be in another big promotion if the rumors are true.

Hopefully he stays away from New Japan. I will be happy not seeing him compete in a 30-man tag, every month.

If the rumors are true he's going to a place more honorable if you catch my drift. Also possibly with the occasional stop to get sushi.
Now we just have to get through the 90 day no TV clause.
