Opinion: That’s almost disappointing as I was hoping for some jokes or something funny in the words. Nothing here is out of the ordinary and it seems like a contract that might be signed by any wrestler in a more realistic setting. If nothing else, it is kind of funny that WWE spent the time to write these things out, as what are the odds that a camera catches what is written on there?
