In regards to the WrestlingINC story ran about WWE asking their talent to cease third party agreements, Fightful can confirm that's true.

Many main roster members hadn't even heard of the news and had only glanced over a letter, while others were livid about the request. One top name wasn't upset, saying that Cameo definitely cuts into the virtual meet and greet market. Another longtime star said that WWE is setting themselves up for a rough situation, as this is a foggy area with their classification as independent contractors. 

Originally, word was that WWE were upset about sensitive information leaking during streams.


UPDATE: Multiple wrestlers have contacted us to state that Vince McMahon did not claim that he owned their real names.

I can’t imagine why Vince would think that this is a good idea.

This is where they need to hold another meeting and talk to Vince, Vince I doubt gives a crap about this

Completely different than a meet & greet. You’re having a conversation with someone and slots are limited. This you’re asking someone to give someone else a shout out or well wishes and you’re not conversing.

Who is on Twitch? I think Cesaro, Breeze, Styles, and Corbin have their own.

Does this include YouTube? I cant imagine Xavier Woods would be ok with that

WWE--their talent are independent contractors that can only work for WWE . I wonder if this is serious or a pretext to dump more talent? They just gave AOP their release, perhaps Vince clearing out more salary to give Brock a 15 year undertaker type deal?

Does that mean YouTube and podcasts too?!?

That's a bit concerning. There's a lot of WWE wrestlers on Cameo. Now they have to stop using that?

It's like they're trying to get rid of the whole carny aspect of wrestling of hustling to make a.few extra bucks. WWE. has way too much control and power over the wrestlers.

I just don’t get it man. Why is he hell bent on trying to ruin the company he made a world wide phenomenon?

I follow several of the wrestlers, they don't bring up story lines unless someone talks about upcoming matches or what not. They all enjoy just playing the games and interacting with the fans. The other day Chugs/Cole stopped playing cause he got swarmed with subscriptions, bits, and gifts and was taken aback from the support. They should be upset and let them get termed, they got a big following and plenty of options out there, even with G4 coming up why wouldn't they want to pick them up as well.

It appears I am wrong since it sounds like it is a Vince directive, lol

Snap decision from Vince who is angry that AJ Styles mentioned his own positive Covid Test. A company can put it in a contract that they own your stage name and apparently your REAL name--but it doesn't mean it will hold up in court. Please someone fight them on this.

"Independent Contractors" . . . . . ROFL! I can't wait for the day that a few of these wrestlers decide to challenge that independent contractor designation in court.

Does this mean that wrestlers can't do any YouTube content? Asuka's content is huge on YouTube.

Lol AJ Styles revealing he got Covid on his stream and then management panics and tells the talent to stop going on twitch, Youtube, etc. LOL FOH...
