Stephanie McMahon was just placed in her new role as the co-CEO and chairwoman of the board of WWE, but it did not last long as her father showed a harsh business move and crawled his way back into the business. Hence, Vince McMahon once again became the chairman of the board of directors. There were speculations that Vince McMahon was trying to sell WWE to some of the biggest investors, which includes Saudi Arabia too. However, following his return, reports state that the deal of selling WWE to the kingdom of Saudi Arabia is now finally done.

The selling thus means that World Wrestling Entertainment will no longer remain a publicly traded company. The company going under private ownership will surely bring in a lot of changes, both for the employees and for the road to WrestleMania.
However, WWE is yet to confirm or deny Bodyslam and DAZN’s reports of its sell to Saudi Arabia.
