I'd be surprised if Instagram is included, because I think WWE requires the talent to use Instagram. Pretty sure that's why John Cena has one he just uses to shitpost.

They can go on Insta Live just like they can Twitch which would the big reason they'd want to moderate that. I'd even go as far as saying it's worse than Cameo or Twitch because it's so easy to screencap someone's message while a WWE Superstar's face is on the screen and take it out of context

Sure it's on Twitch too, but that's an option you have to go out of your way to make happen. It's also a LOT easier to moderate Twitch, and it's not nearly the size that Instagram is.

IG doesn't make WWE-unapproved money, though. You can get product sponsorships to post on IG, but WWE can just ban those or demand their cut while still allowing IG posts.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Mayu shares similar hobbies with Ibushi, but instead of moonsaulting of the second story of building, she really loves rolling neck first down multiple flights of stairs. I'm not sure if they share the same opinions on books but I'm confident in saying that they literally think about nothing but professional wrestling to the point where I don't think they're capable of being normal functioning human beings on their own.

Mayu is simultaneously insanely agile and physically graceful and the worst klutz in the history of the world. She is a living anomaly and is the best.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

Can the WWE legally ask the wrestlers to stop using Cameo/Twitch etc.?

I mean it sounds like it would be a pretty standard clause in an employment contract that says "You can only work for us. And by work we mean derive an income."

I have signed contracts where my entire visa was connected to the specific job and I was not allowed to take paying gigs on the side without express written permission from my main employer. And when I changed jobs, I had to get a new visa.

A company as big and experienced in contract law as the WWE would surely be all over this.

And we know how dumb and bootlicky wrestlers can be, but if it isn't in their contract, surely they can just tell Vince to gently caress off.

Also, surely they can just tell Vince that they have stopped, and seeing how tech un-savvy he is, he wouldn't notice.

gently caress no, those contracts wouldn't hold up in court. The problem is fighting it because WWE has billions of dollars and all the time in the world to drag the lawsuit out and make people's lives miserable. This isn't a meme anymore, the only way things will change is enough active, current WWE wrestlers band together and unionize and it goes mainstream.

The WWE has already done a scab storyline where the entire roster walked out on Triple H for being a bad owner, make that a reality.

lol that storyline ruled. Wrestlers organise and disband a union in the space of three hours after being given gently caress all of their demands other than HHH gets demoted. Pure fantasy.
