What do WWE contracts actually say? Find out below!
Feb 17, 2023
The contract signing has been a staple of professional wrestling over the years, with WWE holding their most recent contract signing segment on the February 13 edition of Monday Night Raw that saw Bobby Lashley and Brock Lesnar agree to face each other at Elimination Chamber.
As is typical with a contract signing, the initial restraint from the competitors disappeared and the segment descended into chaos as Lesnar and Lashley brawled around the arena.
What WWE actually write on the prop contracts has largely gone unaddressed but Fightful Select has revealed what the contract for Lesnar and Lashley's match stated.
The contract reads:
"February 13th, 2023,
"To whom it may concern, This document shall serve as a legal and binding agreement amongst all parties scheduled for the Brock Lesnar vs. Bobby Lashley Match, to be held at the WWE Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event, to be held on Saturday, February 18th, 2023, at the Bell Centre, 1909 Av. des Canadiens-de-Montréal, Montréal, QC H3B 5E8, Canada. The parties hereby agree to save hold harmless and indemnify WWE, WWE Network, and its affiliates from any liability regarding injuries that may or may not occur during the course of this exhibition. The winner of the match hereby assigns all publicity rights to WWE, WWE Network, and its affiliates in regard to the Brock Lesnar vs. Bobby Lashley Match at Elimination Chamber on February 18th, 2023. This contract is drawn in the state of Connecticut and all laws of Connecticut shall apply to its execution, arbitration, or contest."
While the contract is simply a prop, WWE adds text to the document just in case it is shown on TV.
The third clash between Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley will take place at Elimination Chamber. The pay-per-view is set to air on Saturday, February 18 on Peacock in the United States and on the WWE Network everywhere else.
