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

[Hidden Blaze]

So, 9 of us just need to come up with a Billion dollars and we can all go in as a group to buy it? Alright, sounds easy to me. I’ll go find my Billion, so that leaves 8 more of you to become my business partners. We can do this!

May not be that far fetched of a price either tbh but I'm just basing that off NBC paying them $1B just to rent the library for 5 years

Don't worry, I'll have my billion soon enough.

This the crazy part. Vince isn’t necessarily wrong. There was the rumor of him selling to Saudi and he could’ve gotten much more in that scenario but I can definitely see WWE being sold for the $10-$12 billion amount

The CEO of Endeavor has commented on the possibility of the company purchasing WWE.

When asked about purchasing WWE during Endeavor’s fourth quarter earnings call Tuesday afternoon, CEO Ari Emanuel said they were not going to do anything that would change their leverage position.

“As it relates to WWE, it’s an unbelievable product,” Emanuel said. “Vince, you know, created a great business. We’ve had a longstanding relationship with them over two decades. We’re doing on location business with them, streaming business with them, his business is really valuable. But we’re not going to do anything as it relates to changing our leverage position right now.”

The parent company of the UFC has been reported as a potential buyer of the promotion. Vince McMahon forced himself back as Chairman of the company in January, saying that he was back in order to facilitate a sale of the company. Bloomberg reported earlier this month that McMahon was looking for $9 billion for the company.

I still don’t think he’s involved in creative though. It’s all just noise.

If he’s around, or course him and Triple H are gonna have discussions but it’s Hunter making the decisions
