John Oliver Body Slams WWE Ahead of 'WrestleMania'

UFC has the same type of problem going on with the company making more money than ever but clinging to the old "independent contractor" system. It lets them pocket as much of the extra money as possible while avoiding having to deal with unions or follow certain labor laws regarding pensions and medical.

WWE has the bigger leverage of the two since they can be a lot more direct and heavy handed to anyone who takes issue with these problems. Doesn't matter if its a top star leading the push for change since WWE can quickly make that person irrelevant as a star in the company.
