Latest on the 'Brock Lesnar vs WWE' case

[Nark Order]

On June 9, attorneys for Brock Lesnar filed a memorandum opposing World Wrestling Entertainment's motion to extend the court's time before issuing a final summary judgment in Lensar's lawsuit against the company. This would allow WWE to conduct a discovery period on a number of issues they claim would help their defense. Lesnar's attorneys informed the court that they wished to clarify the issues bought by WWE's response to their request for the judgment, noting that they felt the entire case boils down to whether the release Lesnar signed in May of 2004 prevents him from "working in or being associated with the businesness of 'professional wrestling,' 'ultimate fighting,' and/or 'sports entertainment' anywhere in the world until June 2010." They also noted that despite WWE's claims, there is no dispute over the parties signing the agreement that WWE had initially implied. They also claimed that none of the issues that WWE wishes to conduct in a discovery period have any bearing on whether the release is enforceable or not and thus slowing down the legal process. In addition, they also noted that WWE is ignoring a planned phone conference to "iron out their differences" as the case currently moves forward. The memorandum saw Lesnar's attorneys close out by saying that while they would not be opposed to giving WWE an additional 20 days to present their defense, they do not want an extension issued regarding when the court will issue a summary judgment. Again, we will continue to keep everyone posted on this always developing situation. Credit: Mike Johnson @ PWInsider.com

What does everybodt think about this whole "no compete" policy that the WWE has nowadays. I can see why they do it but I can also see the arguement that it prevents athletes from making a living after they leave the WWE company. What do you all think about this?
