    All is not well in the world of Oba Femi

    I’ll be the first one to roll my eyes when someone becomes famous so people just decide to dig through 10-year-old tweets but that’s not what happened here at all. This is a decision he made today and he can be judged on his actions as they unfold.

    All is not well in the world of Oba Femi

    From what I’m reading in a couple of different reports is it started when the merge first took place because endeavor had actually structured it to devalue his voting power from the majority to about 18% and then when Vince realized that he basically had no real power left he sold another 30% of...

    No mind you because they’re paying him. They probably still use him to negotiate deals so I completely believe that story the Chris was saying that he probably still brokered that UFC thing.

    Yeah, that was in the report I could’ve sworn I remember reading was saying. That once the entire merge had been completed, the endeavor guys were basically like we didn’t wanna work with Vince. We had to to make the marriage happen, but this guy is fucking gross, and his allegations are...

    Oh, thank God I thought I was going crazy.

    All is not well in the world of Oba Femi

    I’ll definitely have to track down that report so I can re-read it. For my own edification. Maybe it’s possible that because he’s on the board they can’t get rid of all of his powers so he’s still on TKO making general deals happen like the UFC Saudi one but not so much WWE particulars as I...

    Yeah, just call me confused. I’ll have to find the report again then cause I could’ve swore they basically said we only agreed to this guy being on the board because we had to for the sale but this guy fucking sucks so get him out of here lol

    Then I misunderstood. I could have sworn there was a report that stated endeavor thought he was a liability and didn’t want him running anything.

    Unless I misunderstood, I believe Vince has been neutered to the point of having virtually no decision-making authority. You’re right about Nick, though.

    I agree and disagree. If you’re private you often make decisions against your bottom line if it's better for your company in the long run. Especially from a pr standpoint. The mindset Vince had for getting the most money from the product was bore from being a public company, because that’s the...

    Yeah, don’t get me started on how the government doesn’t get the difference between corporations and small businesses :punklol

    That’s one of the main reasons why if I owned a wrestling company like AEW or TNA I would probably never go public because there are a lotta ways stockholders can remove you from your position if you don’t adhere to their fiduciary responsibility.

    All is not well in the world of Oba Femi

    I think the other factor to remember too is WWE is a public company and they have to adhere to stockholders. Like I don’t for-see Triple H stopping the Saudi shows because the Board of Directors would immediately replace him with somebody that would keep them going. That corporate greed is a...

    All is not well in the world of Oba Femi

    Yeah, that’s rather unfortunate and a tricky situation and absolutely nobody should excuse the atrocities that are committed in their country. Not just with homosexuals but in regards to a lot of human rights violations. That being said, I’m gonna be honest with you. If they offered me $1...

    Actually, you know now that you mention that Uganda was the latest one? It might’ve been Uganda even. It was a more recent interview where they were talking about passing the law.

    Then it might have been their pm. That sucks.

    All is not well in the world of Oba Femi

    I can’t remember if it’s Nigeria but I think it might’ve been somewhere else. I Remember there was an African country leader who publicly said on a public interview that they fully believed in the death penalty for homosexuality etc. and they didn’t care what the west thought of it. It’s crazy...

    Huge mistake. The funny thing is I think celebrities knew once upon a time to keep them separate because before Twitter was really big celebrities would have a public Facebook post and then they would have a private Facebook post. And they will keep all their friendly family, political talk on...
