If that is actually what is happening...this is beyond crazy.

All the possible companies to sell it to, they go to some group in SA and go private after that...

I'm done with WWE if this is true. Sell it FOX, NBC, Disney, Tony Khan, whoever. Anyone but Saudi, I think this is going to be the end of WWE if true.

He really couldn’t just retire, huh?

I hope all this blows up in their face and shareholders or whoever has enough power can sue WWE for this entire deal.

If that move also leads to someone like Sami Zayn leaving (and maybe Kevin Owens walks out if Zayn has to go), I wonder if others might walk too?

Think of how many talent who don't do the Saudi shows will up and leave. No more KO, no more Sami, no resolution to the Sami/Bloodline storyline. It will definitely blow up in their face, the negative press they will get from this, this simply can't be true. Comcast/NBC or FOX has to be apart of the ownership right?

Welp, no more pro wrestling for me if this is true.

****ing over your daughter and son-in-law for one last bag. Vince is truly a vindictive POS.

And how does this help their TV deals?

Doesn't the LIV golf stuff not air on any tv network in the US (and NBC has the rights to the PGA stuff)? Could networks blacklist WWE too?


No more Sami, no more Owens, Cena hasn't ever been part of those shows either has he? Pretty Deadly, MMM, Sonya and others also better watch out. Does the women's division/women's wrestling take a hit too?

I wonder if Stephanie's personal feels for the new ownership group outweighs the business feelings.

I'm sure many talent won't care and will just be happy to be getting their money (or bigger paydays), but I definitely see some talent ready to walk.
