WWE’s sale process continues to be a interesting topic of conversation in 2023. Vince McMahon returned to the company earlier this year with a reported intent to lead the sale of WWE in the coming months. Despite that, information on the topic has been sparse until today.
According to the Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reports, almost every source connected to a potential company that might be interested in purchasing WWE has no interest in Vince McMahon being involved if they buy it in 2023.
Sapp also further stated that many potential buyers believe his involvement could “negatively affect the sale price, leverage, and value of the brand moving forward.” For what it’s worth, Vince McMahon has told those close to him that he’d be open to selling the company even if it meant him leaving it behind. So if he’s telling the truth, this shouldn’t be an issue.
