<p>Akam signed with the company in 2014, while Rezar came in a year later in 2015. The duo has performed together as The Authors of Pain since 2016 when they debuted in NXT. After two years in the black-and-gold brand, the duo moved up to the main roster in 2018 and didn&#8217;t have much success in the main roster. </p>



<p>They teamed up with Roderick Strong against Sanity and Undisputed Era in the first-ever War Games on NXT in November 2017 and won the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic in 2016. </p>



<p>Their run was plagued by injuries, which hampered their push on several occasions. Rezar suffered the latest injury in March after a torn bicep forced them out of action. The duo were making headway on RAW along with Seth Rollins and was set for a major push.</p>



<p>It was reported last month that WWE had dropped future plans for AOP with Seth Rollins, and they wouldn&#8217;t be aligning themselves with the Messiah after their return. </p>



<p>The duo won the RAW Tag Team Championships in 2018 and had a brief run with Drake Maverick as their manager. Following surgery to Akam in early 2019, they remained out of action for several months. </p>



<p>The duo will remain under a no-compete clause for three months and will choose their destination after that. Both the stars are on the right side of 30 and have a great future ahead of them if they manage to stay free from injuries. </p>
