Give your head a shake bro. You honestly think that Vince would attempt an incest angle after everything that he's just been through? Vince has openly stated that he's not going to interfere with creative and went on to praise Nick Khan, Paul Levesque (Hunter), etc. Vince is likely only here to ensure a smooth sale.

Out of that, if WWE is owned by the Saudis, ALL 112 positions will be eliminated, all 5 overall Women's titles will be retired, and the Women's Royal Rumble match, Money In The Bank match, Queen's Crown tournament, and Dusty Rhodes Women's Tag Team Classic tournament will all likely be gone too.

That's basically what's at stake here....the end of women's wrestling in mainstream wrestling culture, because Vince made the wrong moves.

And it sucks.

Cannot see that happening in a million years. Not in todays climate. No chance.

You literally have to be intellectually-challenged if you think that Vince McMahon is going to be selling the WWE to Saudis.

i see you get your geopolitics from twitter.

The crown prince is desperately trying to modernize the culture. Its why he's been reaching out to western entertainment and bringing them in to hold shows. He's attempting to shift the cultural barometer and bring them to western standards. He sees the long term economic ramifications green energy will have on Saudi wealth and is moving to to diversify their options.

Womens rights may lag western society by over 50 years but since his rise theyve made generational leaps in short order. While the culture may not be ready to have fully diverse shows inside the nation Saudi Arabian companies own thousands of international companies that have thousands of female employees. You dont just snap your fingers and have culture changes of this magnitude. Any example of attempting to throughout history has led in bloodshed.

Will there be an all female show held inside Suadi Arabia in the next decade? Unlikely. But they are trending toward modern cultural norms and there is absolutely no reason to think they will manage their international investments in a way that jeopardizes profits.

Now if the women cant hold their weight and draw as equals id be skeptical if they get special treatment like they certainly would now but if they can continue to draw and move t shirts theyll be fine.

The more cultural ties Saudi has to the west the better it is for womens rights. Oppose that at their peril.

Even if Saudi owned I would imagine they will still do business out of the US, picking up and moving the whole kit and kaboodle to the Middle East isn’t smart.

Maybe in the long term but not any time soon.

That said this still feels like a terrible outcome, whether you see buyer interference in the WWE as the negative or the much more likely Vince micro manages it into the ground.

Personally I could see a little of both.

Wake up and start at ESPN.com and see that Steph has resigned.

Work my way here, and I'm reading that the Saudi Public Investment Fund may have bought WWE.

Just, wow.

Destor is right about the women's wrestling. They're not going to pay billions of dollars for this company and just gut a whole portion of it. Especially when some of the bigger female stars bring in a lot of profits.

That said, women's rights is hardly the only controversy facing the saudi government, and there could be a lot of people uncomfortable working with them. I can't see Sami and KO sticking around, for example. And with AEW and even NJPW throwing around big contracts, a lot of people on the roster have options.

So I don't know much about wrestling contracts.

But if the company is sold, don't the majority of contracts become null and void with new ownership. Or would those carry over to the new owners.

Just curious. Because if they become null and void, Vince can't sell to the Saudi's IF he expects to stay on as the new head of creative. 1/2 the roster would leave.

Im sure they will assume the contracts. They would not buy the company and not lock in their talent. This isnt WCW going out of business - the company isnt closing.

Vince and HHH would have to stay in creative as part of the deal. Logically this is the only play.

Apparently Saudi rumours are overblown. Which means the sale will be confirmed tomorrow of course.

Not at all - exclusion only leads to negativity. But the House of Saud can suger coat and throw money all they want. There are massive issues within that society, it’s like ‘hey look at these bright lights over here’ to distract whilst they still do the dirty work in the background.
In regards to women’s rights, for example, allowing women to drive. After they passed the law they jailed women who fought for the cause in the first place. Take that with the massive amount of executions in show trials etc
Have they really changed? There are a lot of examples to say no.

Vince always attempts that exact incest angle and he will do in perpetuity until the day that he dies or Steph gives in.

I don’t think the company is actually going to be sold to the Saudis, but if it is, people do realize that they’re going to run it much the same, right? It doesn’t mean the wrestlers actually have to move to Saudi Arabia.

True, but it’s an extremely scary prospect nonetheless—and not just for fans of WWE, but for anyone who considers themselves a professional wrestling fan of any sort. They would have control over a vast library of a huge portion of professional wrestling history without much motivation to use any of it.

They would likely use WWE, as they have with the Crown Jewel shows, use it as a sportswashing platform—a way to use the company for P.R. spin for their country to try and convince everyone how great it is and make them forget the killing of a journalist there years ago, or the fact that it’s one of the most dangerous and totalitarian places on earth to live or visit, as the royal family can decide to detain and/or kill anyone within their borders for absolutely no reason.

All of this without even mentioning, what if (in the event any of this news is actually proven true) after their “Vision 2030” program runs out, they decide to dissolve the company completely? That would likely either doom the professional wrestling industry completely or put it on extremely borrowed time and numbered days.
