When Vince McMahon returned to power, WWE went through another major change. Since Stephanie McMahon stepped down, Mr. McMahon has resumed his position as chairman of the board. Now it looks more than ever that the company will be sold.
Sean Sapp spoke about the rumor that Saudi Arabia is going to buy WWE. The same was said to him, but nothing has been proven. Still, there are some indications that this might be the case.
One of the more depressing nights in recent wrestling history.
WWE got a real shot in the arm when Vince left and now? He is in charge and they are owned by Saudi Arabia.
Shit. https://t.co/ctQrW8wtxP

Saudi Arabia and WWE signed a 10-year deal to host a number of high-profile live events in Saudi Arabia. With Vince McMahon back in charge and looking to sell the company, the controversial Kingdom is a leading candidate, but nothing has been decided yet.
WWE is going through a lot of changes right now and Vince McMahon came back to help with a sale. This is an interesting situation and you never know what will happen if Saudi Arabia is a potential buyer.
Have a look at:
