Details On Contract Offers NWA Was Making (Patreon)
Content
NWA is in limbo right now, with more news coming this week on Fightful Select
We've also heard of some interesting contract numbers that came from NWA. Fightful heard that Ricky Starks passed up $1000/month from NWA for a new contract offer before he left the company. The champion Zicky Dice was only offered $250 a month at one point, which was passed on. He'd later sign for the remainder of 2020 before being granted his release. His deal was due to be up for renegotiation in September. We've also learned that Thunder Rosa is indeed under contract to the company, and Allysin Kay still plans on working with them.
We've heard more about this situation in the recent days, as these deals were actually renegotiations for many when the original deals expired. Ricky Starks originally had $1750/month before rejecting the $1000 deal. NWA also controlled contracted wrestlers outside bookings, which we're told would routinely be priced out for many promoters to afford.
