Default No clutch engagement?

I went WOT through a gear today to try and get my tick master adjusted just right and shortly after doing so I had no clutch. Pedal still has resistance and everything but don't have proper engagement to move through the gears.

Did I bend the pressure plates or over extend the slave possibly? Just trying to figure out if it could be a fluid/MC issue (which I doubt I am that lucky ) or if this is going to have to go the direction of tearing the transmission out and changing out the clutch.

Default

Went and pulled the tranny today and when I started noticed there was brake fluid leaking down the little vent between the bell housing and transmission. After looking at the slave I noticed the inlet tube where the master plugs in can freely spin and has some slack. Could this be part of the reason? Clutch also looks to be an OEM style one and some of the pressure plate fins have weird gaps between them and vary in depth/height from the others. Is this normal?
