PWD PWD 1085: Holiday Hangover

[Falsedawn]

All these experts out here saying "bye bye womens division".....even though this Saudi firm that own Newcastle United, have a womens team.

Hmm, wonder why...

Mandy Rose doesn't negotiate with terrorists!

FanTime money > Saudi money. Yeahh!

 

[deezy]

The selective outrage is hilarious. The Khans pay the Saudis to manage their Four Seasons properties and had Flex n Gate factories in Asia get busted for using child labor. And fans are probably posting about tHeIR lAsT sTaNd on a device made by a company that...does business with the Saudis.

Got a link for that?

Explains why the creator of women's wrestling, Stephanie McMahon, left.

Not like I want to see that Gelfling Charlotte's body anyhow.

I still think Vince took back over because of her firing.

 

[Smigg]

The weird thing about WWE being sold to the Saudis is the idea of Vince having a boss. I never imagined Vince allowing himself to be an employee.

 

[Sycho Sid]

I really doubt this story. It is not like you can just sell a multi billion dollar publicly traded company over night. I do not doubt for an instance it could be sold to Saudi, just not this quickly.

It wouldn't surprise me if there was some cloak and dagger shit going on as soon as Vince "retired".

I also figure this as well. Not just sold so quickly, but sold and then go private

There's a certain irony to the Saudis purchasing WWE.

For the past few years, there have been these rumours that Vince was going to make an attempt to buy Newcastle United Football Club. If this purchase has indeed happened, it would now mean that WWE, and Newcastle United would now be owned by the same group.

It is the sole reason I havent watched WWE in years. I go out of my way to avoid politics in my household, as I dont like discussing politics at all, I have a lot of tolerance for people doing bad shit, companies being scummy to make a profit, etc. But man, when Khashoggi was murdered and even the UFC was like "we are good with not being associated with Saudi Arabia" and WWE still went ahead with their show, I was done. I'd check out the odd 30 second twitter clip every now and then if something was hyped on here. And I was happy for the wrestlers that things seemed to be getting better of late.

This is pretty fucked though for the All American Lex Luger's prestigious run to be owned by Saudi Arabia now (allegedly).

People, I stopped my subs when they did the first Torture Genocide PPV in the progressive city of FucktheYemenna.

Newcastle is worth more than the WWE. Vince doesn’t have the money to support a premiere league team. A mediocre one. He can’t build a Manchester City.

I don't think Newcastle is worth more than WWE, the Saudis bought the club for $415m and WWE is valued at around $6bn. But, I agree, I don't think Vince himself has the funding to run it himself.

But, he'd probably just use it to rinse money out of it, as opposed to winning anything.

Vince could have set it up over the last couple of months. These things can happen real quick with a minor company like WWE is especially if you don’t care about due diligence.

They’ve got billions to spend on Newcastle to make it top tier. Vince didn’t. But fine.

 

[Wariowokecancel]

I didn’t notice Stephanie out. Wel that means HHH is fucked.

 

[Wariowokecancel]

Well they're working Saudi shows now.

Don’t think Sami or KO can be bought.

Rock is a bigger whore than Cena.
