Getting crunked, sir.

Regardless, this is clearly to support the campaign. The independent contractor thing is dead in the water for defense. They're independent contractors, there's no way to say they aren't.

Eh, arguments can be made to say they aren't. Independent Contractors have a lot more control than "WWE Superstars."

Courts look at a variety of factors when they decide if someone is an employee vs an Independent Contractor. I'm not trying to say a court wouldn't say they are, I'm just saying it's not as cut and dry as some people would make it seem.

She investigates discrimination charges. She gets paid on a per case basis, has no option on health insurance, can't contract herself out to ANYONE else, gets told how much she's able to work (if she's behind on casework, whether through her fault or someone's non-responsiveness they won't send her new work), has no retirement benefits, can be released at any time if a high enough boss doesn't like the way she spells her name...

Anything more specific you'd like to know?

WWE talent as "independent contractors" is pretty much WWE trying to have its cake and eat it too. Like you said, it doesn't mean the ruling will be in that vein, but it's hardly "dead in the water."
