Things got worse for Ridge Holland, aka Luke Menzies.

Fightful Select confirmed with WWE sources that Menzies’ WWE deal has been terminated early. The word within WWE was that they considered some of his recent posts a breach and the call was made to release him from his deal early.

The deal was originally set to go until mid-November, of which he’d be paid. It was strongly suggested that he won’t be paid for the remaining period.

Menzies sustained an injury on September 27 that has him sidelined until well into 2026 and unable to wrestle. Holland was released with seven months of recovery remaining, something that was almost never a practice in WWE until the last year or so. Menzies has said that he was not paid additionally for the TNA appearance. It was noted that WWE has to continue providing his rehab, but they would almost certainly open themselves up to legal action if they didn’t.
