Vince McMahon has officially been back in charge of WWE for one day but plans to sell the company this year are already well underway. WWEForSale VinceMcMahon WWE
\nIt seems like it was just yesterday that Vince McMahon officially forced his way back into his old role as Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of WWE, threatening to block any new media rights deal if anyone tried to stop him, and announced plans to explore selling the company. Oh, wait, that's because it WAS just yesterday! Life comes at you fast when you're reporting on the cutthroat world of modern professional wrestling, we guess.
That would be before WWE's media rights deals are up for renewal this Fall and, as noted by WWE executive management in a conference call held with all employees yesterday , at the opportune time to give companies that might be interested in signing media rights deals with WWE the chance to buy it entirely instead.\nAccording to CNBC, potential suitors could include Comcast , Fox , Disney, Warner Bros, Netflix, UFC owner Endeavor Group Holdings, or Formula 1 owner Liberty Media.
