All is not well in the world of Oba Femi

I feel like if you’re in the spotlight, you really should have someone managing your social media.

Stuff like this could easily be avoided.

 

[Comrade Khan]

as i am saying this Smark - I am actually listening to fightful and they are right now saying he doesnt even have voting rights now - damn - maybe i missed smth!

That sounds super unrealistic for every NXT talent tho tbh or really even any to me. Main roster yeah tho

 

[Loochblade]

I do think Nick Khan is the most powerful man in WWE though, for sure

And here I thought Cody was

 

[Tremendez]

I’ll definitely have to track down that report so I can re-read it. For my own edification. Maybe it’s possible that because he’s on the board they can’t get rid of all of his powers so he’s still on TKO making general deals happen like the UFC Saudi one but not so much WWE particulars as I haven’t heard his name come up when it comes to like running day-to-day operations of WWE in like forever. Like I’m pretty sure Triple H runs creative like has been said and Nick probably runs like the WWE business stuff.

Honestly, though the entire structure is confusing when you have a WWE UFC endeavor and TKO, and how it all boils down.

please share too, fightful business guy (jimmy van) was saying he's basically a figurehead now despite being on the board etc

Yeah, that was in the report I could’ve sworn I remember reading was saying. That once the entire merge had been completed, the endeavor guys were basically like we didn’t wanna work with Vince. We had to to make the marriage happen, but this guy is fucking gross, and his allegations are probably only gonna get worse so they basically made him a figurehead.

 

[Colt Magnum]

While I do get what you’re trying to say here and I agree it’s lame when old comments get dug up on someone, but that isn’t the case here at all bud.

Misread it.

 

[Tremendez]

No mind you because they’re paying him. They probably still use him to negotiate deals so I completely believe that story the Chris was saying that he probably still brokered that UFC thing.

I was gonna say they seem fine with Dana, but Dana has about as much power as Hunter does now - which is a decent amount but they can still be replaced at the drop of a hat if TKO feels like it

 

[Tremendez]

From what I’m reading in a couple of different reports is it started when the merge first took place because endeavor had actually structured it to devalue his voting power from the majority to about 18% and then when Vince realized that he basically had no real power left he sold another 30% of his stocks, so I don’t know what they did to his voting power but it was shortly after that that endeavor removed him completely from the creative end of WWE when already been mostly removed from the business side as Nick was running the business side, even when Vince was dabbling in creative with Triple H. So now he’s basically been removed from most of WWE decisions it appears but he’s still on the board of the actual TKO company so I don’t know what that means. But Endeavor did comment when Vince was causing legal issues that they were looking to further mitigate him as he was becoming a liability.

Yeah if these comments were like 5-10 years ago, I’d be like maybe he’s grown since, and has been educated better. But yeah like this is new

 

[Tremendez]

I’ll be the first one to roll my eyes when someone becomes famous so people just decide to dig through 10-year-old tweets but that’s not what happened here at all. This is a decision he made today and he can be judged on his actions as they unfold.
