OK so I know this comes up alot on the forums over wrestlers being signed/not signed or unable to sign wrestlers who are with the big Companies.
My question is say you sign a wrestler, hypothetically you sign Rok-C to the game last year, now that she has signed with wwe can you still release a card for her or does the "big company" contract cancel out the one the wrestler previously signed to appear in the game.

As long as you signed before their current contract

I think Travis is right but it may be that FG decides in some circumstances to hold off on releasing a card for someone currently signed to WWE or AEW, just to avoid any possible blowback. Or they may not. Jonah Rock's card was released shortly after he was signed by WWE.

We need Stephen P. New to weigh in on this.
Not a lawyer, but I've had some experience with contracts. Never saw one that had any force or effect before its signing date, but you never know.

Yeah that's why I was curious, especially given how protective wwe are over their wrestlers and pretty much wanting to own them.
From a fan point it is a interesting topic

My guess is that FG has decided discretion is the better part of Valor in choosing not to release WWE and AEW contracted talent. WWE has lots of money and lawyers, even if FG has a legal right to produce a card WWE could tie FG up in legal tape and being a small company FG probably doesn't have the money to fight back.
