Ridge Holland Announces First Post-WWE Appearance

WWE Superstar Ridge Holland, who is currently sidelined with an injury, has confirmed his first appearance after his WWE contract expires next month. Holland recently revealed that WWE will not be renewing his contract when it officially ends on November 14, 2025.

Just over a week after his contract expires, Holland, using his real name Luke Menzies, is scheduled to appear at the GCW Dream On Fan Slam event. Salvatore Wrestling Promotions confirmed Menzies’ appearance via Instagram. The Fan Slam event is set for November 22 and will take place from 10 am to 2 pm at the American Dream complex in East Rutherford, New Jersey, preceding the GCW Dream On show later that evening.

Injury Status and Contract Details

Holland is currently recovering from successful surgery on his foot. Despite this, he recently mentioned that he might also require an additional surgery on his neck.

His impending departure from WWE comes after reports suggested that Holland had previously accepted a pay cut when agreeing to his last contract extension. Much of the past year saw him competing primarily on the NXT brand. Holland’s final two matches before his injury were in NXT, including a loss to Mike Santana and the match against Moose where he suffered the foot injury.
