Yeah, Cassidy Haynes confirming it's been sold to the Saudi affiliate and it's going private, and he's credible.

Vince pulled some strings to get exactly what he wanted I bet. He'll be the boss until he is dead now.

I can't wait for HHH to become Lethal Lemmy Levesque.

there is just way too much talent out there right now for 3.5 companies to use effectively.

Can we get Lucha Underground resurrected, please?

Of course its the Saudis Trump and Mcmahon sure have close ties with them ehh

Vince managed to fuck his daughter worse than the rejected angle where he literally fucked her.

The story of the McMahon's would make for an incredible prestige television series.

Like this is fucking crazy. New leadership trying to turn things around under Steph and HHH. Bringing back a lot of talent he fired. Looking into selling themselves to some company like NBCUniversal.

Suddenly Vince rocks up. You're not selling shit without me. Hey you two are off the board. These two guys who have my back are on the board. I'm executive chairman again. By the way I have just sold this company to the Saudis so we can go private. Now I don't have to answer to anyone as long as I give the Saudis what they want.

Fucking crazy. Like even the real life stuff is carny shit.

Just saw an explanation that he's of Syrian descent and doesn't want anything to do with Saudi Arabia. Apparently Kevin Owens also has his back due to being his best friend.

He's Syrian. Not allowed in the country.

He's gone and Kevin Owens is likely gone too. Both of them at the height of their careers with a major match against each other scheduled for Friday.

What's the Syria/Saudi beef then?

nah thats about the trumps/murdochs tbh

Is KO leaving "because Sami", or does Saudi Arabia also hate Quebec for some reason?
I have no idea how this works.

"The WWE is going to die. I know that. The WWE... has cancer... because of HHH. HHH's gonna kill it. And the kind of cancer HHH gave the WWE is the slow, eating, kind of cancer. It's not quick. I'm not gonna let HHH kill what I created. Me. The WWE is mine. It's mine! I created it! I'm not gonna let HHH kill what I created. Because I'm going to kill what I created! I'm gonna kill it! I'm gonna kill my creation! I'm gonna inject the WWE with a lethal dose of poison. If anybody's gonna kill my creation, I'm gonna do it! Me... and the SAPIF."

and old promo, revisited.

Honestly the politics of the Middle East is way too complex for me to post about on here.

I'm sure there's countless reasons for talent to say "hey this Saudi shit is too far for me I'm out."

That was a weird read. "I love this company it's doing great and about to do amazing thing! I quit"

What does this mean for Heyman and Goldberg?

Does this mean Muhammad Hassan is coming back?

Mick Foley & Undertaker should co-own it.

In a just world, Martha Hart would have already owned WWE.

They should recreate their own version of the finger poke of doom and then walk out together, never to be seen or mentioned again.

Yeah, this tells me Vince is 100% coming back solely to spite the people who tried to oust him.

I imagine we'll see HHH and the non-Tony Khan leaving soon as well. Heck Maybe Vince just sells the company to some rich idiots and ****s off himself, knowing he built the whole kingdom and then burned it down when someone tried to take it away.

HHH is only staying until Vince finally dies.

If WWE really is a Saudi company now, Paul and Stephanie will start something amazing when the non-compete expires.

A Triple H fed would be nice. WWE but with less baggage.

"It' been sold to Saudi Arabia and womens rights don't exist there" is a completely understandable GTFO moment.
