Vince McMahon eyes multi-billion WWE sale
The owner of World Wrestling Entertainment is analyzing the sale of the company, with Netflix and Disney, among potential buyers.
There are reports suggesting that the future of World Wrestling Entertainment may see a significant shift, as Vince McMahon is apparently considering the possibility of selling the company. According to Lucas Shaw, a journalist from Bloomberg, there are already interested buyers who could potentially acquire the prestigious rights of WWE.
How much could WWE be sold for?
McMahon is said to be seeking to sell WWE for a staggering $9 billion, a figure that has surprised many industry experts. While this news is currently speculative, it’s worth noting that the company’s current market value is around $6.5 billion. McMahon’s proposed asking price represents a substantial increase, which could have significant implications for the future of WWE.
Who are the candidates to buy WWE?
Recent reports suggest that companies with significant financial resources, including Netflix, Disney, Comcast, and Amazon, have expressed interest in purchasing WWE if Vince McMahon decides to sell his company. However, the asking price set by the millionaire owner of World Wrestling Entertainment could potentially pose a significant obstacle to any potential sale.
There have also been rumors circulating that an investor from Saudi Arabia is interested in acquiring WWE, but these reports have not been met with enthusiasm from fans. This sentiment could certainly play a role in any final decision regarding the sale of the company.
