Delete Apple Watch apps

I’ve researched multiple ways to do this and it won’t work on my watch. I need to free up space so my watch will update and work correctly with my phone again. When I press on one to delete it, they start to jiggle but there is no X there so that I can delete it. I’ve tried via the watch app on my phone as well and it won’t work that way either. Help!

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 6
