This also means youtube channels like upupdowndown will start to get infringed upon as WWE products. That’s an awful edict and if I was talent I’d be thinking about my exit strategy or a way to maintain growing my branding on media platforms.

Meh not if he uses gamer tags. Buttt he may be the loophole. It is all the non wwe branded stuff, they promote him the most

I’ll never understand how Vince works, you’d think he wouldn’t mind wrestlers using other avenues to get over, it only helps brings more eyes to your product. Hell, it’s LESS work on him and the writers tbh

He works as he’s always worked. He wants 100% control no matter the cost. A wrestler is still a wrestler even when not working to him. He wants to control the story and narrative. That’s why he never wanted to get into mma when Shane did. Because he can’t control the story like wwe.

Yea, said that to my cousin early. Dude is clearly a control freak, down to the most minute detail. He can’t see past himself. Things will only be better when is finally out of the way unfortunately

So WWE wrestlers are classified as independent contractors, but they can’t have a side hustle? Is it possible this is just an excuse to have another phase of layoffs / firings?

Vince McMahon is an incomprehensable asshole
He released the rock and he missed out on a couple video games because vince mcmahon is petty.
John Cena has all these sponsorships too but he a part timer. So…
I kind of can’t wait for guys like Roman and Bryan and even miz to reallize that wwe needs them more than they need wwe

Pretty much the entirety of WWE contracts aren’t worth shit but most talent don’t bother to fight them.
