I hope not, but I wouldn't doubt it. Vince can't honestly go  himself.

So if the rumors are true about Saudi Arabia. What does it mean for WWE going forward? Do things significantly change?

The women division is dead if that's the case.

I look forward to finally hearing the backstage stories from Vince's reign of terror once the talent pack their bags and head for the hills. Gonna be some great podcast episodes coming in the future.

Someone said UFC is partly owned by Saudi Arabia, is that true? They would stay on American TV Chanel’s right?

The implications of this from a talent standpoint could be insane. Zayn is obviously done, Owens most likely too, how many people walk once it’s offical? Does Cena ever wrestle for WWE again? Does AEW get a huge TV deal because Fox or USA don’t renew with WWE? This is the biggest news story ever in wrestling

If this is true, there will surely be a lot of moral soul searching for some of the talent regarding whether they stay with the company. Mainly with the female roster.

I honestly don’t know how this is going to benefit WWE. I think a lot of fans and possibly big businesses aren’t gonna support WWE they way they do now

I would not put this past Vince McMahon, and if it is the case, it is very disappointing. Selling to the Saudi government is a complete crapshoot when it comes to the future of the company.
However, I'm seeing that it's not concrete (according to Sean Ross Sapp) and I'm hoping that is the reality and that if they get sold it's to one of the other bidders.

It's like every time Dana White tries to win that observer award for "most disgusting promotional tactic" (and this year's method to promote slap fight was particularly daring) Vince is just like "hold my blood money" and here we go.
