Ronda Rousey Comments On Vince McMahon’s Return
“If you haven’t noticed, everything’s a little bit in flux with the WWE right now, I don’t think anybody knows what’s going on with anybody this week, let alone weeks from now.”
Ronda Rousey’s comments came before the most recent developments which have made WWE’s future even more uncertain. On January 10th Stephanie McMahon left her role as co-CEO, and WWE altogether. With her exit confirmed, it was announced that Vince McMahon had been elected Chairman. The billionaire had reinstated himself onto the Board of Directors alongside two associates less than a week earlier.
This led to three Board members being removed and a further two resigning with immediate effect.
It has also been revealed that this move by McMahon could result in legal action being taken against him and other members of the Board.
With Vince McMahon confirmed as Executive Chairman it was reported that WWE has been sold to Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund. However, it is important to note that a sale is yet to be officially confirmed by either party.
In relation to a sale to Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, a report has claimed that one WWE Superstar is ready to quit should the sale happen. There is also said to be an “incredible amount of concern” from both staff and talent connected to Vince McMahon’s return.
