WWE Lawsuit: Trouble Arises with the UFC and WWE Merger
As per a press release by Julie and Holleman, they are investigating the proposed merger between Endeavor and WWE, where UFC and WWE will combine to form a new publicly traded company.
Endeavor is a sports and entertainment company, which consists of UFC, IMG, and WME. It is controlled by private equity firm, Silver Lake, which holds the majority of the company’s voting power. While the majority of WWE’s voting power is owned by Vince McMahon, the executive chairman of the company.
According to the press release, “Julie & Holleman LLP is a boutique law firm that focuses on shareholder litigation, including derivative actions, mergers and acquisitions cases, securities fraud class actions, and corporate investigations.”
“Julie & Holleman is investigating potential legal claims regarding the fairness of the merger terms and potential conflicts of interest. Among other things, Silver Lake may have interests that diverge from other shareholders’ interests, and it could be using its controlling stake to extract unfair benefits. Julie & Holleman is also concerned that the proposed merger might have driven the sale of its IMG business to another private equity firm.”
