Seems like another attempt to prevent wrestlers making their own money outside of the WWE brand. But it is to be expected these days.

Not even surprising either which is not great. They get zero protection contract-wise as they get classed as "independent contractors" which is bullshit when they then try and say you can't do your own stuff to make a bit more money on the side. Fair enough if it makes or impacts on the WWE product, but the ones I've seen over the years where WWE frowned upon it, it there was zero impact other than fans liking that particular wrestler more.
