Backstage WWE Wellness Policy Update, WWE DVD Releases, More

— Much has been said regarding WWE’s policy on talent returning to the company with ‘strikes’ from previous Wellness Policy infractions. To clarify things once and for all, the policy officially states: “Any WWE talent who leaves the WWE for any reason with a first or second violation on his/her record will maintain those strikes if he/she returns to the WWE.”

Furthermore, any talent with two ‘strikes’ — a category which includes Chris Masters, William Regal and Jeff Hardy — would be immediately fired and banned for at least a year upon a third offense.

The Policy specifically states: “A WWE Talent who is terminated by the WWE for a third violation will be prohibited from returning to the WWE for at least one year.”
