Today’s WWE Releases Came With Non-Compete Clauses

WWE released a bunch of talent today, and it appears that more could be on the way. This followed over 100 employees that were cut from the company’s offices.

Mustafa Ali said he is no longer working with WWE. It was then revealed that Emma was released today as well. Riddick Moss later joined his fiancé in free agency. It was later reported that Rick Boogs was released from his contract. 

Sadly, Aliyah’s name joined that list later. It didn’t take long for fans to hear about Elias’ release. Top Dolla’s name joined those releases as well. A short time later, it was announced that Dolph Ziggler was released.

Sean Sapp tweeted out to confirm that today’s releases come with non-compete clauses. This has become standard with releases.

“90 day non competes for most of the releases, per usual.”

WWE is also expected to fire a few talent from NXT today. At this point, we will have to see what the company decides to do. NXT contracts have historically been 30-day non-compete clauses as opposed to the main roster’s 90-day clauses.

Keep checking back with Ringside News for more updates on this story, and many more in the pro wrestling world. This could be a very long day, and a busy one too.
