“Very Boring and Sanitized”: WWE Hall of Famer Opens Up on Recent Vince McMahon Rumors

WWE is a term that evokes a lot of emotions in different minds. Some would lean towards nostalgia, while some are appreciative of the depth involved in a particular character. Whatever the case, the love for promotion among wrestling fans is quite constant. Although the authoritative figure of Vince McMahon may be controversial, even the fans outside the industry would have surely seen him. A WWE Hall of Famer has recently opened up about the rumors surrounding him. McMahon has always been embroiled in some controversy or the other. The latest one involving a major hush money scandal should have been the final nail in the coffin. But the former authority figure engineered a shocking comeback to the board. Former WCW president Eric Bischoff has expressed his views on the Stanford-based promotion’s supposed sale. He also added that he wasn’t in favor of a sale.

WCW legend comments on the situation

He said, “When you have this vertical integration that is fueled by mergers and acquisitions. A lot of the independent television producers a lot of the independent television networks they lose their soul and they become one big corporate entity and it manifests with less variety, less character. I find it, the end result can be very very boring and sanitized“.

The former Raw General Manager added, “So, I’m sorry in many ways I’m sad to see WWE being sold to a bigger conglomerate whether it be NBC or Comcast USA here or the fox you know empire because I love the independent nature of what WWE has been for so long a family business, public company it’s still run by one guy and I’m gonna miss that“.

Apart from the many potential buyers that Bischoff mentioned, there are others. Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment fund looked quite close at one point. The recent social media activity by Dwayne Johnson also hints at the interest from the actor.

Vince McMahon managed a shocking comeback

McMahon’s power moves began earlier this month when he first crawled back into the board of directors. And then was unanimously elected as the president of the board. This was preceded by a shock resignation from daughter Stephanie McMahon as chairwoman and co-CEO.

Triple H continues to operate as the Chief Content Officer for the promotion. However, the relationship between him and the chairman of the board is less than ideal according to a report from cagesideseats.com.

What lies in the future for WWE is anyone’s guess. With lots of potential buyers ready to roll the dice, it will be interesting to see what Vince McMahon does.
