Vince McMahon's HUGE WWE Asking Price Revealed

Vince McMahon reportedly wants $9 billion for WWE.

Bloomberg reports that McMahon's asking price peaks at this figure - it's more than the previously-reported $8.5 billion. However, if one is in the market with that kind of money, then what's an extra half billion, eh?! Seriously though, this is clearly an eye-watering amount of cash.

It's worth noting that Vince's price tag is a full 37% bigger than WWE’s current market value ($6.5 billion). That could put off some potential buyers, and Bloomberg's article suggested would-be customers like Disney and Netflix might also be put off by McMahon's continued involvement mid-scandal/investigation.

That's all guesswork, of course. Few really know for sure which major companies are eyeing up a purchase here. Disney and Netflix shouldn't be ruled out of the running, especially when they keep popping up as named interested parties in various reports.

Only time will tell exactly who takes Vince up on his $9 billion asking price, or if somebody will be able to negotiate a lower fee for WWE.

Does anybody have a spare...$9 billion just sitting around the house? You could become WWE's new owner if you do.
