The company has been fairly proactive on the contract front, and now WWE is working to extend more key Superstars.

Sure, WWE has lost a few talents in recent years. But, for the most part, while under the guidance of Triple H and Nick Khan, they’ve done well in acquiring new and retaining existing talent. Just this year alone, we’ve seen the company retain top Superstars like Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre. In addition to those names, there are reports that the company has extended future Hall of Famer Randy Orton and possibly the recently returned CM Punk (already). All this while bringing in new talents like Giulia, Stephanie Vaquer and the Motor City Machine Guns.
The checkbook is busy
It’s already an impressive list. But, their work is never done, and new reports indicate that WWE is working to extend a trio of key Superstars. According to PWInsider, the company has reached out to Liv Morgan, Rhea Ripley and Nia Jax about signing new extensions. All three are, arguably, critical pieces of the WWE roster. As of this posting, both Morgan and Jax are the women’s champions of their respective brands. Ripley is challenging Morgan at Bad Blood, for a title which she previously held. Can’t get much bigger in the company than those three right now.

By all accounts, the company and fans love these Superstars. Presuming the feeling is mutual and the offers are good, it seems likely that all three should be mainstays for years to come. I have to say that for Nia Jax especially, that has to feel like vindication. She’s saddled with the family ties and some past in-ring botch issues, but she has overcome and done some of her best work. Now, for her as well as Liv Morgan and Rhea Ripley, it seems to be paying off.
