Well, since Kuma has turned into PX, losing his conscious, I would assume he's no longer able to think for himself, hence fully under the control of the WG. Due to this (him being "more a machine now than man" - reference to Star Wars quote), he's technically no longer a Shichibukai. I am aware that it has yet been clearly stated as so, but adding the points together and I consider Kuma being "lost". Just my assumption
