If this is even true, and Turner were to start a new wrestling federation, he'd have to wait until March 2005. That's when his no-compete clause with AOL Time-Warner expires. But he could lay the foundation now if he wants to.
Also, Turner isn't worth as much as he was a few years ago. When Time-Warner's shares plummeted, so did Turner's wealth. But he's still a very rich man. Last I heard Vince was worth around $400-500 million. Not bad, but not were he was when the WWE was in its financial prime (1997-2001) and not as much as Turner.
Right now, almost anyone can give afford to give the WWE competition is okay with me. More jobs for the wrestlers, exposure, more angles and the needed competition.
