Vince McMahon successfully muscles his way back to the WWE

Although this wasn't exactly a secret, most in the WWE didn't expect Vince McMahon to use this to his advantage. It's believed some are considering leaving the WWE if it can't get rid of Vince McMahon as soon as possible.

Below is a statement released by Vince McMahon as he returns to power: WWE is entering a critical juncture in its history with the upcoming media rights negotiations coinciding with increased industry-wide demand for quality content and live events and with more companies seeking to own the intellectual property on their platforms. The only way for WWE to fully capitalize on this opportunity is for me to return as Executive Chairman and support the management team in the negotiations for our media rights and to combine that with a review of strategic alternatives. My return will allow WWE, as well as any transaction counterparties, to engage in these processes knowing they will have the support of the controlling shareholder. Now that Vince McMahon is back in power and reportedly looking to sell the WWE, Michael McCarthy, and A.J. Perez of Front office Sports claim Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund is "emerging as a possible bidder" for the world's leading wrestling promotion.

We wouldn't be surprised if this sale pushes through considering that the WWE has played a prominent role in the country's development program, "Saudi Vision 2030", as part of its plans to drive more money into its economy.

The WWE is currently in the middle of a ten-year agreement with Saudi Arabia to hold at least two large-scale events in the country annually.

As for the creative side of the WWE, Triple H still has full control but this could all change in the next few months. Stephanie McMahon and Nick Khan are still on-board as the co-CEOs of the WWE.
