Fightful Maintains Updated List of Confirmed Wrestling Contract Expirations
Originally reported by Fightful: https://www.fightful.com/wrestling/confirmed-wrestling-contract-expirations.
Fightful has compiled an ongoing list featuring confirmed contract expirations reported by respected news outlets or the talent themselves, providing a centralized reference for roster status and movement. The site also maintains a constantly updated injury report, with both items discussed weekly on the Fightful Backstage Report Podcast on Fightful Select.
The expirations list is continuously updated to reflect new confirmations; where a talent is described as having “signed a multi-year deal,” Fightful lists that designation unless further clarification is provided. These resources aim to give fans and industry observers a reliable snapshot of current contract and injury information.
This list does not account for the added injury time.

WWE stars praise Natalya and TJ Wilson’s The Dungeon 2.0 for sharpening in-ring skills
Natalya shared a new video on X showcasing training sessions at The Dungeon 2.0, the renovated school she runs with TJ Wilson, calling the project a continuation of her grandfather’s “heart and grit” approach to building resilient performers. The clip underscores their mission to pass on old-school fundamentals to a new generation, with Natalya reiterating the facility is more than a gym—it’s a “love letter to wrestling.”
Several WWE names weigh in on the impact: Liv Morgan credits weekly three-hour sessions for boosting her confidence and performance, Ilja Dragunov used the Dungeon to prep his comeback after an ACL tear, Jacob Fatu praises TJ’s coaching and Natalya’s no-nonsense push, and B-Fab highlights the space as a creative canvas to experiment and build fundamentals. The Dungeon’s influence extends beyond current stars—John Cena visited last year to share industry wisdom—cementing its role as a training hub for talent across promotions.

WWE Names Hunter Selby Director of Show Production and Design
WWE has appointed Hunter Selby as its new Director of Show Production and Design, a role Selby confirmed on LinkedIn, saying he’s “excited” to begin and looking forward to new designs debuting on screens. Selby brings three Emmy nominations for outstanding lighting design and direction, including credits for American Idol (2023, 2025) and SNL50: The Homecoming Concert.
The hire comes amid ongoing production and structural changes across WWE, including recent SmackDown graphic updates, as the company prepares for Backlash in Tampa on May 9. John Cena is confirmed to appear at the Premium Live Event, and five matches are booked: Roman Reigns vs. Jacob Fatu (World Heavyweight Championship), Seth Rollins vs. Bron Breakker, IYO SKY vs. Asuka, Sami Zayn vs. Trick Williams (U.S. Title rematch), and Danhausen teaming with a mystery partner against The Miz and Kit Wilson.
