World Wrestling Entertainment has had a tumultuous 2020 amid the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the promotion releasing a lot of talent over the year, and continued controversy over business decisions. One of the decisions that has earned the most ire from both talent and fans is the company's new regulations regarding personal Twitch accounts for WWE wrestlers. As the month draws to a close, many of the wrestlers affected by the new rulings are signing off from their streams.

One such wrestler is Claudio Castagnoli, better known by his ring name Cesaro, who held his farewell stream just one day ago. At the end of the wrestler's three hour League of Legends stream, Castagnoli took some time to bid a fond farewell to his audience before the account would be taken over by WWE.

As Castagnoli was finishing up, he addressed the audience showing both gratitude and acknowledging what will be an indefinite hiatus. Castagnoli thanked the viewers and said that "I don't know when the next stream is going to be. It may not be for a long time" Castagnoli then sheepishly says that with regards to when streaming will resume, he'll "find out more, as you will." While Castagnoli was humble in his stream, fellow WWE talent have been more vocal about their discontent with WWE's new policies.

He ended the stream by saying "I really appreciate all of you. Thank you guys. Stay healthy my friends." While not officially called a farewell stream by Castagnoli, many fans have seen it as such as WWE officially takes control of the account. While many WWE wrestlers begin their transition away from the community engagement platform of Twitch, other wrestling promotions have taken the opportunity to take digs at the more recognizable wrestling brand. Popular and rising promotion All Elite Wrestling threw shade at WWE over the then early reports of the new Twitch policy.

With the recent outpouring of support to wrestlers by fans as well as the continued complaints by talent, it is still unknown if WWE will be swayed into changing these new policies. As the company struggles from continued bad press, even its video game license has taken a significant hit over the last few years. With the disastrous launch of WWE 2K20, this year's WWE 2K Battlegrounds has been a similar sales disappointment for the company.

These new Twitch rules have placed the spotlight back onto WWE's employment policies with regards to wrestlers being designated as "independent contractors." As more fans become aware of the growing concerns regarding WWE's practices, it is more likely they will go elsewhere for their wrestling fix.
