Nick Khan said that WWE is open to selling, but not really, but they are.

I’m still waiting on a good plausible explanation of why Vince would sell the company instead of leaving it to his kids which was passed on to him :jbhmm:
The idea of someone else running his baby probably repulses him :scust:


It's funny how the HBO show Succession and character Logan Roy is almost an exact doppelganger of this situation - billionaire CEO who doesn't think his kids are worthy of inheriting the throne so he'd rather string them along and eventually sell (them getting the money after he's gone is irrelevant to him) rather than let his son, daughter and idiot son-in-law put their prints on what he built :pachaha:

Which is a fukked up logic since his father didn't have to leave the company to him, yet still did it anyways. Besides, who does he think the money from the sale is going to go to after his death lol.
Vince Jr was working there for a long time and eventually bought it.

I mean yeah it was his dad, but his dad didn't play any role in his life until he was almost an adult. Vince had great ideas to make more money than his dad was doing. Plus he had passion for it.

We don't know how much passion Shane or Stephanie truly have.

I can see Vince selling but insuring the family still holds creative control

No way will he be able to sell the company without his family still having creative control unless he only sells a portion of the company while they still maintain majority.

Look at what happened with Papa John's selling his company, but keeping a minor stake. The majority shareholders kicked his ass own and there was nothing he could do about it and now he has no creative control pertaining to his company.

Khan is a guy that SHOULDN'T be talking when your trying to keep a Positive PR spin.

Not that he shouldn't talk, but like, this is a guy who recently joined WWE and now is doing PR. Don't get me wrong, I get he is chopping heads, but if this guy is now speaking up for WWE itself and not Vince, not Trips or Steph... that's a BIG, BIG indicator something is in the pipes.

I mean he's the President and Chief Financial Officer of the company. That's his job to answer those questions that are being asked and not Vince, Trips or Steph.

This whole thing... he didn't just get it because he was Vince Sr.'s kid and he wanted it... he had to prove he was capable of running it, and had to pay for it, and had to take Vince Sr.'s business partners (Gorilla & Arnold Skaaland)... the only guarantee Vince's kids get it is if they have the same drive he has to keep it successful. It's more LIKELY that he passes it down to them instead of someone from the outside, but I wouldn't set it in stone. And even if they don't end up owning it 100%, I doubt they're completely shut out from it. People in the thread talkin' like it's some foregone conclusion that the whole company's definitely going to whoever waves the dollars just because NXT didn't beat AEW :mjlol:
