Over the last few weeks a number of WWE departures have been confirmed and now it seems that another name has been added to the list. Today Ridge Holland took to social media to announce that he was informed WWE will not be renewing his contract when the deal expires on November 14th. Holland posted the following announcement.
“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 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.”
