Major Update On WWE Star Retiring From In-Ring Competition

This week’s episode of NXT gave fans plenty to talk about as Ridge Holland made his way to the ring to announce that he is stepping away from in-ring competition indefinitely. WWE then doubled down on the announcement as they moved Ridge Holland’s profile to the alumni section on their official website.

Fightful Select reports that NXT sources have confirmed to Corey Brennan that Ridge Holland’s retirement is a storyline and he is not officially retiring from the ring.

It was noted that Ridge Holland’s current storyline is something that he’s been motivated to do and that he has receptive to suggestions. According to the report the storyline has had no pushback from creative, or talent despite the fact that there’s been backlash from the fans.

The expectation is that the storyline will run its course as it was originally planned. Stay tuned for more updates on creative plans for Ridge Holland as they become available.
