And let me guess

WWE has to approve who joins them on stream,,, probably any none WWE contracted streamers will not be allowed on.
No Profanity.
Approved games will be mostly 2K games.
The Chatroom will be Subs Only all the time.
No games that are rated above “Teen”
Promotion of WWE products and events is mandatory.
Only WWE approved charities can be used for charity streams,
No WWE/WCW games released before 2007 to be played.

- No pinning Triple H or making him submit
- No choosing CM Punk, Chris Jericho, or anyone else we dislike at the moment
- The stable of Test, Mankind, Big Show & Ken Shamrock in 1999 is absolutely never to be mentioned again

I was only guessing. But if I had to for YouTube... same as above but add “constant reminders to hit that subscribe button, and smash that notification bell icon”

If you're an undercarder not getting a push, don't expect and support on the twitch side if things even if you nail it. The 'No, you want Seamus' attitude absolutely will be applied here to cut the income and popularity of people Vince dislikes.

A Roman stream will be brought up on TV, across all the WWE controlled websites, used in angles, a Lince Dorado stream will be doooooooown at the foot of the site to try as hard as they can to ensure he's buried.

WWE Crackdown On Wrestlers' Twitch Accounts Is Causing A Lot Of Drama

You might wonder how WWE can even do this. Reports about this ongoing story have been unclear about whether WWE is rewriting its contracts to cover talent having monetized accounts on Twitch, YouTube, Cameo, OnlyFans, and the like, or if they’re just citing existing provisions in the standard contract. The most recent available WWE talent contract in SEC filings, that of executive and occasional performer Stephanie McMahon, is from October 2013, but its terms were left largely unchanged in amendments from 2016 and 2019. It does appear to have a clause that could be cited to keep talent from setting up monetized content creation channels online. According to section 1.1(a), WWE is granted “the exclusive worldwide rights to WRESTLER’s services, appearances, and/or performances in the entertainment industry” during the term of the contract.

So, why now? The prevailing belief, per PWInsider’s Mike Johnson, is that it’s a result of the hiring of Nick Khan as WWE’s president and chief revenue officer, stemming from his history as a talent agent and “media adviser” at the Creative Artists Agency (CAA). The timing makes sense, too, as word of the “Twitch ban” came down about a month into his tenure. OK, but still, more broadly: Why? It’s not like so many wrestlers are streaming that WWE is missing out on something that would boost revenue a lot. The functional difference is that taking away sources of substantial ancillary income for the wrestlers limits the wrestlers’ options. Hell, look at how WWE responded to the covid-19 pandemic early on: This past spring, after over a year of warehousing wrestlers and giving substantial raises up and down the roster to stave off new competitor All Elite Wrestling, and despite record profits, WWE cut numerous wrestlers, wrestling producers, and members of its support staff. Throw in that Thea Trinidad Budgen, who was on an older contract and was, according to Meltzer, making more money from Twitch and other outside content creation than she was in WWE, and you can see why she may have put her foot down knowing that it would get her fired from her dream job.

Now sure it looks bad, but that's because the Independent Contractor stuff is complete and total bullshit.

It really sucks, because hearing people talk about Drake a few years ago, he sounded like the nicest, most stand up guy in the business, and now seeing him get this brainwashed by this garbage.

The fact that quite a few people like Ryker, Fish, Drake have been outed like this, it makes you wonder if COVID isn't the only virus being passed around in WWE's lockerroom.

Wait, what happened with Bobby Fish?

For a guy who's all about the fake Save The Children stuff, he sure hasn't been vocal about working on the same show as Velveteen Dream...

In an interview with Alex McCarthy of TalkSport.com, AJ Styles commented on WWE banning the usage of third party platforms such as Twitch:

"Myself, Xavier Woods and Sasha Banks had a sit-down meeting in Connecticut with Vince about this whole situation, and it was determined that it’s intellectual property, this is [points at his face]. We do well as far as the WWE, and if there’s an opportunity to pay back that money that, you know, we work hard for at different timesI, we probably should. I was doing this long before the lockdown, before the Coronavirus I was streaming and doing my thing, so I was always doing it on my time off… I wasn’t happy about it, no one was, but it is what it is. I’ll handle it the way that I have to. I’m a teamplayer, he [Vince] is the captain, I’ll follow his lead as far as Vince is concerned. Will it change, will something happen? They’re working it as we speak. Will I be happy with it? Probably not. The opportunity to stream in the future is definately wide-open. I obviously have the equipment, I just don’t have the opportunity to do that right now."

It’s worth noting that Xavier Woods was on this weeks Good Game Nice Try, and he was billed as Austin Creed and regularly called Austin, even when talking about WWE.

He’s also being officially billed as “Austin Creed” by G4 for their relaunch and will likely be known as that for whatever show he ends up hosting there.

I’ve never been more depressed reading a paragraph than I have this one.

Ayup. AJ, as expected has zero interest in fighting Vince and will do nothing that will involve sticking his neck out to help younger talents making less money.
