The outcome of Raven's lawsuit against WWE, along with two other former unnamed stars, regarding breach of contract will likely depend on whether they are looking to make a payday or really change how WWE recognizes their talent.
It's a similar situation to Brock Lesnar's lawsuit with WWE, where he tried to get out of his 90 day no compete clause. WWE settled out of court so the judge couldn't rule and no legal precedent was set. If the judgehad ruled against WWE they would no longer be able to enforce that no compete clause.
If WWE settles out of court and pays Raven's "flock" a nice check, then there will again be no ruling or precedent meaning WWE can go back to recognizing their wrestler's as independent contractors and not employees, continuing to prevent them getting adequate benefits.
