#2 To keep away the competition

In reality, this is probably the biggest reason why WWE denies Superstars' release in the first place. The competition is heating up now with All Elite Wrestling making a huge splash this year.

It's clear that they come as a threat to WWE and the company has openly put out statements revealing that they consider AEW to be competition and will do what they have to in order to win.

WWE has always considered promotions outside to be competition to them and has done everything they possibly can to make sure that they have an edge over others. One such example of this is the women's division across the three brands.

When you compare them to AEW's Women's division, it's evident that WWE has locked in all the best female wrestlers in the world and will be especially careful to ensure that AEW doesn't get any of them.

The fact is that they want to keep the competition away and in WWE's perspective, denying a superstar their release is one such way to do so.
