Ridge Holland Says WWE Won’t Be Renewing His Contract
WWE has informed Ridge Holland that they will not be renewing his contract when it expires on November 14.
Holland shared on Instagram that WWE told him they won’t renew his contract at that time. Recently, he was injured during a TNA Wrestling taping and is still in rehab. He is unsure about his future in professional wrestling, but plans to start an online coaching business soon.
Ridge Holland also acknowledged that his WWE career had been filled with misfortune in his reflective post.
I’ve been informed that WWE will not be renewing my contract when it ends on November 14th. WWE are still going to cover my rehab from injury but my guaranteed pay will end, quite frustrating to say the least as I cannot work for another 6 months due to the aforementioned injury, with a family of 5 to support.
My career with WWE has been blighted by misfortune but I’m still thankful and grateful for the opportunity and experience. The shining light that has always kept me going is the HUGE support from a handful of special human beings. Thank you.
I’m unsure what lies ahead of me in terms of wrestling but going forward I will be working hard to heal up and in that time I will be launching my own online coaching business so stay tuned.
Cheers
