WWE Plans To Sell The Company Before Starting New Television Deal Negotiations

On Friday morning, WWE confirmed that Vince McMahon, Michelle Wilson, and George Barrios were back on WWE’s Board of Directors.

McMahon made it clear that he would not approve any media rights deals or a sale of the company without him on the Board of Directors. WWE has hired JPMorgan to lead potential sale talks. 

During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer revealed that the company plans to sell before they get into new television deal talks. 

WWE’s TV deals with NBC Universal and FOX expire in September 2024, with talks about a new deal starting later this year.
