“But what’s going to happen now is, Ari [CEO of Endeavor] is gonna add a ton of value to WWE, whether it’s sponsorships, licensing and a lot of other things that he can do when he touches the business. And these two, the UFC and WWE will become their own stock. You know, they’re talking about, I don’t know how much I can talk about this I should shut the fu*k up.”
