I still think Harper should have just gone into John Oliver's show and just discuss the situation he's in and his independent contractor status. That would get him relieved from his contract ASAP.

I can see why he doesn't because he has a family and he probably doesn't want to blackball himself from WWE forever, especially when it might not suck so much when Vince is gone, but man.


I feel like had he done this, theyd both fire him and legally try to lock him into a no-compete clause for the remainder of his deal due to a breach of contract regarding WWE needing to approve of media appearances

That's entirely possible.

Really depends on a lot of factors. I feel like that's something he'd be able to sue over. Not sure for what, exactly (not too brushed up that sort of law!), but I feel like if Harper took it to court, there's a chance that a ruling on independent contractor status may be not go in their favor. Because as it stands, that hasn't been challenged yet. And depending on how much John Oliver were to press the issue, I'm sure that Harper could crowd fund enough to compete with WWE's legal juggernauts.

But, chances are you're right and he's better off not even opening up that Pandora's Box to begin with!
