Vince McMahon retires at 77

Vince's inner monologue, basically. Trade in WWE for WWF, Hunter for Flair, and cut the last ten seconds.

Disney buys WWE and Wrestlemania becomes Mickeymania

I do think that's part of what this is about. If Vince can't run WWE anymore then no one else from the inner circle will

It's not being said here, mostly a twitter thing, but I see people saying Warner/Discovery wouldn't buy WWE because of their AEW TV deal which simply isn't the case.

If Warner could own WWE outright they would and they would most likely not renew their AEW deal, though it could open the door for other TV suitors with WWE potentially shifting off their current networks.

That said I would bet money Warner will not be buying WWE because they don't have the cash for it. Discovery has them in full cost cutting mode and they are tossing content in the trash left, right, and center.

Comcast and Disney would be my guess at front runners, with Fox and Amazon strong possibilities too.

It would set up a great main event for WrestleMania 39 - Vince McMahon vs Mickey Mouse for total control of WWE.

Let’s do this, as long as Vince believes it’s actually true and whoever is in the Mickey suit is legit tough.

Can't count out some good old fashioned Saudi blood money from buying it either.

If it’s just about the check, that’s who I would think is most likely. They’d keep everyone on board too.

Elon Musk could buy it and broadcast Wrestlemania on twitter is bursts of 20 second clips

Yeah with the belt tightening across media, that might be where the biggest dollar amount comes from

They really should have sold a year ago.
