Pinehurst, February 2, 2023 - Vince McMahon returned to WWE as an executive chairman in January with the intention to sell the company. The talk about the sale spread up to a high extent, but it has since been quite pushed back.
While speaking on Thursday's investors call, LightShed Ventures' Brandon Ross speculated that the potential buyer universe for WWE would be impacted by McMahon's assertion to remain with the company post-sale.
There was a question from Ross if he could tell investors "with certainty" if McMahon would be willing to end his involvement with WWE following a sale if that gives shareholders the most value.
"Yes. Without question," Khan said.
"He's declared it to the Board. He's declared it to us in management. It's all about shareholder value. He's obviously a shareholder so it's not about what role he'll have. It's about maximizing that value opportunity," he said.
