WWE Terminated Contract Of Ridge Holland Early After Comments About WWE Not Renewing His Contract

On October 13, Ridge Holland announced that his WWE contract would not be renewed when it expires on November 14.

Fightful Select confirmed with WWE that they’ve terminated Ridge Holland’s (Luke Menzies) contract early after his recent tweets about the company’s decision to not renew his contract.

Full details are up for subscribers.

On November 4, Holland posted the following statement on social media:

“I never thought I’d not be able to pay my mortgage.

I feel like I’ve just been hung out to dry after getting injured working for another company on behalf of WWE.

Add to that my contract not being renewed knowing that I wouldn’t be able to wrestle for 7 months. This is brutal.

Yes they are taking care of the surgery and physical therapy but let’s be honest, that’s the bare minimum after what we sacrifice for the company.

Plus the possibility of having to get my neck fused too.

Talk about getting totally fucked.”

Holland is currently sidelined for months with a Lisfranc injury suffered at TNA iMPACT! tapings in September.
