Update: It has been confirmed by a WWE spokesperson that there is no truth to the rumor whatsoever.
Vince McMahon certainly has a lot on his plate right now. On top of running WWE where his decisions are final, he also is preparing for the 2020 re-launch of the XFL. It seems that the two might just merge together.
Brad Shepard reports that Vince McMahon is looking to “dabble” in WWE’s money and not from his own pocket. The said funds are supposed to provide additional funding for McMahon’s XFL project.
According to a source in the company, Vince McMahon wants to dabble into #WWE money (not personal stock) to provide additional funding for the #XFL, leaving some concern internally about how that may impact the company’s finances.
In the past, Vince McMahon said that WWE and XFL would be kept separate from each other. So it will be interesting to see if it does not end up being that way in the end.
