Per the WON - all new TKO contracts have a one year non compete if they are fired for cause.

There's no way a non-compete that restrictive would hold up in court. Especially if its unpaid and for "independent contractors"

In the end, what was the official reason for his WWE release? Last report I read back in September was vague as hell.

He either failed or refused to take a drug test.

There’s zero chance that’ll hold up if he goes to court.

A year-long compete is reserved for people that have trade secrets.

I don't even think having different non competes for being fired with or without cause should really hold up? I get the everyday logic of why, people trying to get fired on purpose to go elsewhere, but legally that seems like a step too far to enforce, plus it adds an extra layer to litigate the cause itself if that's deemed okay

I don't think the WWE non-competes ever counted as the same as these types either tbf. The whole paying for the 90 days is what made it mostly okay, it was more of a 90 day notice you're being let go than a real non compete.

But what little we've seen of this alleged non-compete so far certainly seems like a more standard corporate one you see everywhere else

They’re certainly not paying him for a year, right?

That’s why they specify with cause?

What he said.

So yeah, it’s one thing to have 90 days paid as an early notice of your termination, but you can’t fire someone, not pay them and restrict their ability to find new work when trade secret law doesn’t apply.

I'm just shocked at how much worse this company has gotten after Vince left. Like it's somehow even more indefensible this year than ever.
