LOL. I thought Darby was going to turn on him for stealing his spotlight.

 

I stand corrected about Darby and Joe. Still think theyve botched Warlow to high heaven but was a great underdog style main event

 

Meanwhile, I strain having to take a full load of laundry down to the garage.

 

Oh, lord. Please let this be ONLY from his desk in Stamford.

Wall Street Journal: Vince McMahon plots return to WWE | CNN Business

 

Before Vince has a chance to screw things up again, some goodwill in WWE ...



And Sasha has now officially been moved to the alumni section of the website, between Santino Marella and Savio Vega.

 

Sounds like Vince only wants to facilitate a sale….. I mean if NBC/Peacock becomes a corporate owner and leaves Papa H alone then fine, but there’s real Disney/Star Wars meddlesome possibilities there too

Unless of course Shad Kahn wants to really blow a couple billion…..

 

Just finished reading Brian Gewirtz's retrospective on his career. The longtime WWE writer who's now one of Dwayne's right-hand men with his production company.

It's a great read with lots of stories from behind the scenes.

 

Nash and Hogan? Is it weird that they moved the next board election to Daytona Beach?

 

There's been speculation for years that Vince mostly wants to sell the WWE, just for the ego boost of the obscene number it would go for. If UFC sold for $4B a couple years ago, because rights REALLY blew up, then the WWE would likely go for more, if it's for everything they've got in the inventory and the rights forever into the future.

 

its funny to me that the stock spikes while all the wrestling types are acting like the sky is falling…..
Do investors expect to get paid on a sale or do they not hear/ignore all the Meltzer reports about morale? Bc you’d think bad morale = bad product = bad ratings = bad stock price but not so much

 

Alright this ones pretty funny
