Vince back on board, WWE sale coming soon / WWE funeral thread

[Mitch Buchannon]

I think Conrad Thompson owns the rights to the Jim Crockett Promotions name so what you're saying is Conrad has bought WWE?

Not anymore, he sold his 50% to David Crockett

Don't tell me that guy is gonna own WWE now

 

[Smart Marx]

Whoa Chris, why you posted this stuff? Sale by the middle of 2023, I hear it's being bought by Time Warner tomorrow. Wait, Time Warner doesn't exist anymore? Well then by Crockett Industries next Thursday. Someone leak it to the dirt sheets, got to get the IWC buzzing!

Time Warner still exists. It was just rebranded WarnerMedia when AT&T bought it.

Only would be good for the potential matches. Other than that it wouldn’t be good for wrestling.

Oh get the fuck out of here lmao

You sure about that?

Imagine getting that type of Invasion angle we should've gotten in 2001.

Yeah. Idk. I just feel like one person owning the two biggest companies might be a bad thing. The memes from it would be top notch.

Might be bad, yea. I definitely get where you are coming from with it... but I could also see, depending on what people would be put in charge, that they still could work apart from each other. There just would be crossovers up the butt, probably.

It's not like in 2001, where one of the companies was pretty much actually dead in the water.

Tony Khan will still try to book all of the shows by himself.

 

[Brandon Blaze]

If it happens it happens (it definitely won’t) and I’ll come along for the ride.

Seen people suggesting if that happened that Tony should let Trips run the WWE side of things, like keep them separate, other than like stuff like WrestleMania or All Out, some of the bigger PPVs. Something like that would be cool. But let’s be honest, it’s not really a realistic chance of happening.

Vince getting bought out by his nearest competitor would have some delicious irony... but a monopoly is bad for fans and wrestlers.......


BUT THE MEMES MIGHT BE WORTH IT
