Those numbers are wild about the ufc tripling in value yet fighter pay being such a hot topic and barely making increases

That is wild. How they get them numbers? And lol. The fighters not even getting double salary. Base is probably still $10K show, $10K win.
Don't ya think it'll be awkward? WWE wrestlers get higher salaries/incentives while the UFC guys get nada. And the promotional engine behind WWE superstars is way higher than UFC.

I think we had this conversation. I think we said Matt Riddle, who had a 8-3 MMA record, is now making almost a half million in WWE. That's pretty good compared to MOST UFC fighters. Riddle has to "work" more but is the wear and tear any different than MMA?
Do WWE fighters get to go to the performance center now lol so they can learn how to cut promos?

Hopefully, Dana grows one too. He's basically metaphorically doing it to the male fighters and his mom admitted he does it to the ring card girls and female fighters.

He looks like a Bond villain.
…all he needs is a cat in his lap to complete the personification of evil theme.

Now it’s only a matter of time before Ronda Rousey fights Colby Covington for the UFC Intercontinental Intergender Championship.
I’m actually not kidding about that.
They’ve already created a fake belt with the BMF title.
…that’s eventually where this is all heading.

Im not getting the big deal. Obviously the sale is huge news, but just because they are owned by the same corporation doesnt mean they have to be the same company. You dont see James Dolan telling Julius Randle hes suiting up for the Rangers tonight instead of the Knicks

It’s not really a big deal since Dana doesn’t pay the fighters
Maybe we’ll see more fighters make cameos in the wwe but it’s tbd on bigger potential impact

Biggest change is the WWE being promoted during fights, angering a base of the fans

What happened to Vince? Roids accelerate his aging?
This merger caught me off guard too, what’s happening with the stock prices?
