WWE Superstars Protest Against Vince McMahon’s New Order
Follow Us
It seems that WWE is ready for a massive change as Vince McMahon issued a new order. The order gives WWE the power to fire wrestlers if they don’t oblige. A letter detailing the “expectations of the company” was sent out last Thursday.
According to the letter, Superstars have 30 days to terminate their association with third-party apps like Twitch, TikTok, and Cameo. According to Mr. McMahon, WWE “owns” the wrestlers’ reals names as well as the ring names. The wrestlers are listed as “independent contractors.”

This news is disheartening to the fans and wrestlers alike. Many stars like Xavier Woods, Paige, Big E, Lana, and Natalya have a huge presence on the apps mentioned.
WWE Superstars Are Furious Over The Decision of Vince McMahon
Former and present Superstars and fans are furious at the ultimatum given by WWE. They took to Twitter to troll WWE and express their disdain.
Sooooooo guess now would be a good time to launch my Twitch and Cameo??

Banning wrestlers from making extra money on third party deals – twitch, YouTube, cameo – strikes me as a crummy thing to do.
Just my opinion.
