A report has revealed how much key executives in WWE could potential make if the company were to be sold for $8bn.
In the new issue of Wrestling Observer Newsletter (subscription required), Dave Meltzer notes:
“At press time, with a stock price at $88.50 per share, the company’s Wall Street market value is $6.588 billion.”
Meltzer goes on to estimate the following:
“If the WWE was sold for $8 billion, this is roughly what the key people in the company would make from the sale:
“Vince McMahon $2,552,969,558
“Stephanie McMahon ` $170,842,415
“Linda McMahon $50,320,030
“Kevin Dunn $24,205,410
“Nick Khan ` $13,837,200
“Frank Riddick $10,931,948
“Paul Levesque $8,323,822.”
Tony Khan recently provided an update on his interest in the sale of WWE, saying that he was both “interested in it” and “potentially being involved in it”.
There had also been previous reports that the future involvement of Vince McMahon in a post-sale WWE was seen as a “sticking point”.
WWE CEO Nick Khan did, however, state that Vince McMahon was “open to transactions where he’s not included in the company moving forward.”
It was reported that Comcast (NBCU) had ruled themselves out of being a buyer.
According to Nick Khan, however, WWE were “bullish” on Comcast being involved.
