It was recently reported that Vince McMahon has issued an edict letting talents know that they can no longer use third party services like Cameo and Twitch, and the edict has been a big talk point in the wrestling community.
It was also reported that talents who don’t comply could be subject fines, suspension or termination.
Talents have until October 2 to end all third party deals, and WWE issued the following statement regarding the edict:
“Much like Disney and Warner Bros., WWE creates, promotes and invests in its intellectual property, i.e. the stage names of performers like The Fiend Bray Wyatt, Roman Reigns, Big E and Braun Strowman. It is the control and exploitation of these characters that allows WWE to drive revenue, which in turn enables the company to compensate performers at the highest levels in the sports entertainment industry. Notwithstanding the contractual language, it is imperative for the success of our company to protect our greatest assets and establish partnerships with third parties on a companywide basis, rather than at the individual level, which as a result will provide more value for all involved.”
