All hell is about to break loose.

 

[GKJ]

I think tomorrow is going to be a wild day to be extremely online

 

[hockey20000]

this really sucks i wonder if it will effect the sami zayn/bloodline storyline?

 

[Sheppy]

This company is going to go bye bye in 3 years max. They’re completely f***ed.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see several walk outs. Especially if Vince gains creative control, which he probably will.

This is so deflating as a fan of HHH and what good he’s done since that crusty f*** left a few months ago. All of it will be washed away, 24/7 title back and Omos winning the Rumble.

 

[mrmovies779]

My desire to continue watching with Vince back is gone.You just know he's taking over creative again and f***ing hhh over in the process.I expect big releases starting tomorrow too

 

[Apex Predator]

With them going back to private what does that exactly mean?

 

[CDJ]

RIP WWE


What a deplorable human. Genuinely.

They deserve every ounce of shit they’ll get. Every ounce.

don't really like to wish death on anyone.. but i can honestly say i won't shed a tear the day vince goes 6 feet under after this.

Tony Khan feeling like a king rn

 

[Apex Predator]

Tony Khan may have actually saved wrestling if the news are true.

Tomorrow? How about right now or even right here.

Quite the gulf state vanity project

 

[Blitzkrug]

Expect to see a few people leave over this. Tony Khan just went full mast.

Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens being two at the top of the list (Zayn obviously being Syrian and Owens pretty much being ride or die with the former)

This is horrendous.

Guy already has leg up simply by not being a piece of shit, trash, human being.

If anyone in that company has any self respect they’d up and walk right out the door tomorrow.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Over/under on something not quite legal having gone down to make this deal happen?

 

[GKJ]

Wonder if this affects Dwayne or Austin being at Wrestlemania. Saudis couldn't get them.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Anyway in the sports world. Saudi public investment fund owns WWE, Newcastle, and LIV Golf?

Also wow they have stakes in A LOT of major companies. That's actually a bit scary

 

[Sheppy]

I’m more concerned with how it affects KO & Sami.

 

[Petey But Really Jim]

What do you suggest is afoot? Surely not more murders of North American citizens.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Still a LA show and the check will still be large.

I don't think a lot of talent is going to really care as much as people want them too as long as the checks are still being cashed.

Vince being put back in charge of creative will cause talent to stir more then new ownership

 

[Blitzkrug]

I’m more concerned with how it affects KO & Sami.

They're gone. Just accept it now.

Sami Zayn is one of the few guys in the business that actually walks the walks when it comes for standing for his morals/beliefs. If he refused to so much as even perform in Saudi Arabia, i can't imagine he's going to want to work for them. Owens will follow because he backs Sami 100% of the way refusing to go to Saudi Arabia in solidarity.

Well, people are already talking about that for good reason.

i wonder if he will even appear on tv anymore at all.

Yeah a majority of the roster will move past any moral hangups for a cheque. Sami and KO are almost for sure gone though. I would be surprised if Sami ever shows up on WWE TV again if this goes through.
