Wow, CM Punk could come back and wrestle and fight in the UFC at the same time.

"Vince McMahon couldn't have made out better in the deal" is a bleak phrase

I wonder how much of a no-compete Paul Levesque has.

I want to say that there was a report when the sale talk first broke that Endeavor would want Vince involved, but don’t quote me on that. This is about to be a wild ride, brothers. It's not really surprising they would want to work with him, I believe their talent management side of thing actually already represents Vince and WWE in some media markets, and they power the Network in some as well. But Vince being named Executive Chairman doesnt mean he'll take over creative again or anything like that - indeed with a more formal corporate position, he'd have more restraints on him - but not sure who would actively tell him no if he wanted to do something |

Once they announce it at the exact same time Vince is gonna publicly kick HHH in the scrotisimus and take back full controll of creative.

So I'm going to guess that Endeavor wants him involved with things other than the boardroom stuff. |

Are we going to get MMA Vince McMahon next? Shit, depending how you look at it Vince had a big hand in creating MMA in the first place. |

Dana slapped his wife on video and then did a presser where he said he won't take any punishment because it's not going to hurt him it's going to hurt the UFC or something similar. There's no telling what kind of evil the tag team of Vince and Dana will come up with |

I remember when the network first launched and they spent ages telling people they'd be stupid to buy a ppv. That was despite the network not actually being available to many fans at that time. Didn't sit well then, even worse if they tried charging 80 f***ing dollars now.
You can get a six months to an entire year of most other wrestling streaming services for less money. Or 3 other ppvs (and sometimes a credit for a fourth). That's before other more general entertainment streaming services and even they're all struggling because money is tight in most countries.
That's before you even get to the probable creative issues, I thought the MMA obsession in wrestling was bad already.

I'm not sure how to feel about this. I'm glad that it's not the Saudis but I'll have to wait to see who is going to have what role on the WWE side going forward. I hope they keep Triple H. in charge of creative because of the overall job he's been doing since he's taken over. I don't want Vince to come in and make drastic changes and ruining the good work that Triple H. has done.

Something absolutely insane that I learned recently is that the two dudes sent over to help oversee Muhammad Ali vs. Antonio Inoki were Satan's ultimate tag team VINCE MCMAHON AND BOB ARUM |
