For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. If the release is rescinded, the no-compete clause no longer applies and the talent continues their deal as before. WWE could keep talents on the remainder of their deals if they so wanted. I wouldn't count on it, though. WWE was intentional about cutting costs before the effects of COVID-19 fully develop.
2. WWE has to approve any and all releases. WWE's probably open to making more cuts if they have volunteers, though.
3. I wouldn't expect them to.
4. I always thought he lived under the ring? But yes I think Wisconsin is his legal home.
5. It won't be easy to keep operating without income, to say the least.
More wrestling tomorrow.
