Likely only to facilitate the tv negotiations, and to potentially sell the company. He needs to stay far away from the creative team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't understand what's going on. He, and the two people he originally fired to bring Nick Khan in, Barrios & Wilson, are now on the board. VKM still has 80% of the company's class B stock, so any media rights negotiations must go through him. But so far HHH is still in charge of creative, Khan & Steph are still co-CEOs. Basically it sounds like a hung jury up there. But as long as VKM stays only for the sale or a TV rights renewal, the boat won't be rocked. Any moves beyond that, like taking the company back to private, will strain the relationship with their other shareholders and their sponsors. In other wrestling financial news, NJPW are scrapping their Us TV show, Strong. They've lost money on it. Matches were good. The athletes made on the show are promising. But the production sucked and no one took it seriously. There's talks between Pres. Kidani & Tony Khan about making ROH the new U.S. feeder fed. Kinda thought that's what they should've done, since ROH was the gateway for NJPW's US expansion. But AEW and Sinclair's complete indifference to ROH kinda killed that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparklefan1234 151,042 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I wonder if Danhausen wears his facepaint at all times because I never see him without it. I'm joking of course but his facepaint budget must be insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part two might be just about to premiere. Strong rumor that WWE has been sold to the Saudi investment fund, taking the company private for the first time in 24 years. VKM could be in control permanently or retiring with billions. But this could also backfire, as not everyone shares WWE's amorality, from their sponsors to their broadcast partners to their own talent. Steph quit so she wouldn't have to vote against her own father and many of the board have either left so they're not guilty by association or were forced out. If this goes private, WWE won't have to answer to anyone, not even shareholders. MJF's bidding war of 2024 may as well be kayfabe. Punk only said he'll go back for a bag load of money, but not blood money. They may even lose some top guys due to being at odds with the Saudi regime, like MVP (renounced Islam), Sami Zayn (Syrian), Kevin Owens (loyalty to Sami), John Cena (image conscious) and The Rock (won't jeopardize his political ambitions). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping it's not the Saudi Investment Fund. NBCUniversal would make the most sense, but nothing will change no matter buys the company. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
