If love wasn’t in the air, Endeavor has just made it possible as one of the biggest marriages in the entertainment history is right around the corner. And who else than the mother of entertainment wrestling, WWE and the pinnacle of MMA, UFC coming together can forge this alliance? In the latest tweet dropped by Endeavor, it has promised to build a 21 billion dollar global live and sports entertainment company made up of UFC and WWE.
In a report by Endeavor, it stated, “Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: EDR) (“Endeavor”) and World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE: WWE) (“WWE”) will be going together in a historic unity that may see stars coming from both brands forming an unprecedented alliance. However, the modus operandi was not shared by the company.
Here is what Ariel Emmanuel had to say about the dynamic move for joining the two mega forces
Ariel Emanuel, CEO of Endeavour lauded the opportunity by saying that how this move will bring together countless fans and do a world of good to both the companies, enhancing the share holdings of the two giants and at the same time will be extremely symbiotic in nature where fans from both backgrounds can come together hoping to create an unity like never before.
Here is what Vince McMahon had to say about the mega alliance by Endeavor
Vince McMahon was equally happy at the new alliance and opened up on how things are going to pan out between the two giants, particularly after WWE’s latest acquisitions. They were crystal clear about the idea that things can very well change in terms of the relationship of the two companies and the unity between these two would threaten other wrestling brands as well.
Only time shall reveal what works or what doesn’t but with the kind of money involved in the deal, things tend to change and later we may be witnessing the birth of a wrestling spectacle that would only be dreamt of in the near future.
Twitter had a lot to say about this huge move. Here is what Twitteratti had to say about the gilt-edged move.
