In the present day, Dana White and Vince McMahon are essentially part of the same team. That wasn’t always the case.

“My history with Vince isn’t a good one,” White told Sports Illustrated. “He tried to f---k me so many times for no reason whatsoever except just to f---k me. But that’s in the past. Now that Vince and I are allies, no one’s been a better partner than Vince.”

The UFC and World World Wrestling Entertainment officially merged under the parent company TKO Group Holdings in September. White became UFC CEO as a result, but his duties haven’t changed significantly, while McMahon remains executive chairman of WWE. What has changed is the relationship between the two company heads.

“We’ve probably spoken on the phone 20 times since the deal. It’s all added-value conversation — with Vince doing work and raising the bar for both companies.”

I haven't watched or cared for Pro-Wrestling in ages, but I think its fair to say Vinnie Mac might be the best promoter in modern times.

What he's been able to build is pretty crazy. These dudes are selling out stadiums multiple times a year.

Michael Jordan of business world isnt even allowed to run his own company anymore. The higher ups would rather have his "no good" son in love to do that job.
