Former WWE star Ridge Holland has been garnering a lot of attention recently after he announced that the company will not be renewing his contract when it expires in mid-November. A subsequent report indicated that his contract was terminated earlier this month following his outburst on social media after he sustained an injury during a TNA taping in September. Additionally, it was revealed that he is also dealing with a neck injury.
In one of his social media posts, Holland expressed feeling “hung out to dry” after being injured while working for another promotion. This sentiment has been widely speculated as a reason for WWE's decision to terminate his contract.
Sean Ross Sapp provided further details on this situation in the latest edition of Fightful Select Answers. According to Sapp, Holland sustained his injury in late September and was informed about his departure on October 13. He also noted that Holland's contract was officially terminated on November 4 for violating a key WWE rule that prohibits signed talents from disparaging the company. Sapp clarified that WWE will continue to cover Holland’s rehabilitation costs, which he has been undergoing at the Performance Center; the company would risk legal action if they did not cover these expenses.
