An update has emerged on plans for WWE Headquarters following the announcement of the merger with UFC under Endeavor.
As confirmed on Monday (April 3), Endeavor has purchased WWE and will merge it into one sports and entertainment company with the UFC.
This comes after reports that WWE planned to move its HQ to 707 Washington Blvd in Stamford, Connecticut during the first quarter of 2023, but hasn’t completed the move yet.
Per Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE still has plans to move into the new address.
Discussing WWE HQ plans, Meltzer noted:
“They’re still gonna go into the new (headquarters)… There’ll be layoffs and stuff most likely, but they’re moving to the new place.
“UFC’s gonna stay in Vegas, there might be some layoffs there, who knows, but they’re gonna stay in Vegas. WWE will be headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut, that’s not changing.
“They’re being run as two separate companies, but they are sister companies and there will be people who will be working on both.
“Kinda like UFC and PowerSlap where there were people in UFC that were working on PowerSlap.
“Like when WWE had some of their attempts – whether it was running boxing or running the World Bodybuilding Federation, Vince’s side things, people in the company (WWE) were involved in (those)… XFL, a lot of people in WWE worked on XFL. Not the second one but the first one.”
