""When you work for WWE, you are used to funds being available for you, if you think I am going to spend my own money, you are out of your mind."
In my experience if you're classed as an "independent contractor" as TNA and WWE do to their wrestlers, you pay your own expenses whilst working and then claim then back after the fact. Don't know about US law but I would say this expectation is against the definition of a contractor in the UK.
I seriously don't see how TNA and WWE get away with classing people like Ric Flair as "contractors".
