WWE Approaches Three Top Names About New Contracts Amidst Busy Free Agent Season
2024 saw WWE’s financial resources working overtime, particularly during the lead-up to WrestleMania 40. Five of WWE’s top male superstars – Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre, Damian Priest, Finn Balor, and Chad Gable – were on the verge of free agency. However, they all renewed their contracts and have continued to be significant figures in Monday Night Raw and SmackDown ever since. Despite WWE’s success in retaining talent, it hasn’t been flawless. The former Women’s Champion, Becky Lynch, left the company in June without re-signing, and she remains a free agent. Similarly, Ricochet, a previous Intercontinental Champion, handed in his notice and has since joined All Elite Wrestling.
