UFC President Dana White meets with WWE Chairman Vince McMahon

Well look who's getting cozy with one another.
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) President Dana White was recently in Stamford, Conn., at World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) headquarters to rub elbows with the Chairman of the Board of the sports entertainment conglomerate, Vince McMahon.
White, who has called McMahon an "animal" and admitted to looking up to him and following the business model he used to make WWE a booming success, stated that Vince is "the guy that basically created the pay-per-view market," according to USA Today.
No word on exactly what White was in town to discuss but there's no shortage of speculation. Perhaps Brock Lesnar, who has recently been rumored to sign a deal with WWE for rights to manufacture toys and DVD's and such?
Not to mention that little confrontation with Undertaker back at UFC 121. You wanna do it?
Of course, there's always the chance the two companies could come together for a blockbuster agreement of some sort, which was briefly rumored as a potential collaboration on a television deal. Both organizations are reportedly in discussions to purchase their own cable channels.
Anything could happen, right?
This is all unsubstantiated, of course. I'll leave the rest up to you, Maniacs. Anyone have a good theory as to why White would be hitting up McMahon at WWE headquarters?

Mcmahon is a joke, with a failing business. I don’t see anything Dana can learn

Perhaps Brock Lesnar, who has recently been rumored to sign a deal with WWE for wrestling in the last WM but got cockblocked by DW, did TUF and ducked JDS rights to manufacture toys and DVD’s and such?

Medical documentation or it never happened. And, yes, I am not trolling - I really mean that.

Why does Brock or the UFC have to reveal that?
"......I'm the best ever. I'm the most brutal and vicious, the most ruthless champion there has ever been. No one can stop me. Lennox is a conqueror? No! He's no Alexander! I'm Alexander!

They don't have to do anything that will compromise their $$$ - which is why I think we will never see any proof. :)

Brock in no way ducked JDS. You will see that when he fight back is against JDS if he should lose to Cain.

Brock has hardly strayed from top opponents, no reason why he wouldnt fight JDS after getting destroyed by Carwin which he followed up by fighting Cain.

Right… Well they are not anywhere near their peak , they continue to produce some of the most watched programs on all of cable.
And sell millions upon millions in merchandise every year. The UFC drools at that thought

Their viewers migrate to UFC and Vince burns through athletes because of all the juice he makes them take.
It hasn’t been wrestling in a long time. They shortened and cookie-cuttered their matches on free tv and just threw in tons of T & A. There’s a reason they are no longer on Spike and it was not Vince’s choice. The UFC garnered more viewers.

let me explain the failing comment
this year wwe posted their lowest ever profits and ppv numbers, the sport is losing fans by the ass load.
pretty soon, wwe will be a memory
Knowledge speaks, Wisdom listens
You dont understand a failing business concept. Look at Blockbuster, Boarders those are failing business’ while WWE has been struggling they are hardly a failing business.
And what is pretty soon, please give me a date because I’d be willing to wager money that 10 years from now WWE will still be around.
You know the rating RAW did this past Monday?
A 3.2 with something like 4.5 million viewers. UFC does ratings in the low 1’s like 1.2 for Fight Night cards.
Forget it Donny, you're out of your element.
I don't even know why you bothered responding. Its like engaging in a debate with a poster who claims Kimbo could beat Cain. SMH.

I like the politics behind wrassling - its very entertaining. My buddy is a wrassling fan and he keeps me posted with the inside scoop. Some wrassling books are great, too. Check out Brett Hart's book...a great read

Yes.
The best part of pro wrestling is the behind the scenes goings on. The business of it. The on-screen is hardly worth getting up for, save for anything involving CM Punk.
Forget it Donny, you're out of your element.
Again, Ill admit. The Rock sucked me in a few months back. He left I left. This week have been watching CM Punk do his mic work. I frickin love that. A part of me has always wanted to cut a sick promo like that

The CM Punk angle was great and I ordered MITB PPV which was my first WWE PPV order since 2004.
It took a lot to get me to watch the WWE again and that angle was hot. This is coming from a fan of the Late 80’s wrestling and the Attitude Era.

That and free tix to WM25 in 2009. That was a spectacle.

I was 12-13 yrs old in ‘97-’98 and had an online (AOL days) wrestling newsletter. First issue, sent to 6 people, mostly family. Final issue to 946 people. If only PayPal were around….
I just stole everything from Wrestling Observer and the bigger newsletters… But the political science of wrestling has always fascinated me.

The best notion I've heard
is that they’d make a cable TV network. WWE’s has been stuck in the mud trying to get theirs off the ground, and Zuffa doesn’t have enough programming for a 24/7 network. But combine the two….

WTF wait....
You never saw captain planet?!
I learnt a lot from that shit… There was Quami who’s power was of the heart, and Wheeler i think was water… Someone else was fire and someone earth and someone wind
All together they formed the five elements of the earth and came together to call on Captain planet when they needed his help – he basically fought a lot of TMNT type enemies with toxic barrels and such
There was also an evil arch nemesis that captain planet had that was like trying to destroy the planet – everyone captain planet fought were people trying to destroy our natural resources etc
It was a great show and brought up a FANTASTIC generation who give a fuck about the environment around them and id say it has a fair bit to do with influencing that…
Fuck it i love it… Captain planet – hes our hero – gonna take pollution down to ZERO
just watch the intro – its the least you could do :p

I don’t know about you but even I got up for that CM Punk fight. He smashed Cena all over the ring, Cena even tried boxing at one point but Punk was having none of it once the crowd got behind him. He runs out of the arena like a boss and takes the belt with him.

Dana wants to air WWE on his new TV station
I think if the UFC bought g4 or tech tv what ever you call they may want to air some wwe on it for the extra viewers, I know zuffa owns many fight librarys from the other promotions they bought But would run into lots of reruns with out other tv show being avalible to the station,
THats my thought i’’m probably off by a long shot
Maybe the Octagon girls get to do a bra and panties match

Vince is a genius.
DW is probably just getting some advice on how to keep the business going up. Wwe isnt as great as it used to be, but Vince isnt calling all the shots now. When he was, it was money. So im thinkin that, or shit with Lesnar. I wouldnt mind watching him and Taker in a match again.

"The financial policy of the welfare state requires that there be no way for the owners of wealth to protect themselves. This is the shabby secret of the welfare statists’ tirades against gold. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process. It stands as a protector of property rights. If one grasps this, one has no difficulty in understanding the statists’ antagonism toward the gold standard."

I understand "your" business
I also understand the difference between reporting MMA news and what you have done twice today, and will voice my displeasure with these types of articles every time I get the chance. Sorry if you don’t understand that.
What suprises me is the fact that you got your panties in a bind twice from my comments. Apparently there is something to my criticism.
"The financial policy of the welfare state requires that there be no way for the owners of wealth to protect themselves. This is the shabby secret of the welfare statists’ tirades against gold. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process. It stands as a protector of property rights. If one grasps this, one has no difficulty in understanding the statists’ antagonism toward the gold standard."
Alan Greenspan, 1966
The Rampage-Couture Twitter beef is absolutely MMA news.
And is currently smashing with hits today. As for the above post, I do what I’m told. That’s all I’ll say about that.
Forget it Donny, you're out of your element.
meh
Maybe this is the new norm for “MMA news” and I need to be the one to avoid this type of shit, and it is shit to me.
It is not personal, please know that.

I mean
it’s not just MMA news. Twitter is a rolling news source, man. If a football player said that shit about another football player, you can bet the major football news sites would pick up on it and make a post about it.
You also have to consider the timing. It wasn’t like I posted that during a mid-day rush of traffic. It was posted at night during our lowest traffic time.
I don’t take it personally but after enough posts where people comment just to say, “This is news? Fuck, it’s turning into TMZ around here,” you can see how that would get annoying.
Forget it Donny, you're out of your element.
The problem with your argument
Randy is no longer a fighter. He is an MMA “personality” who has no bearing on fights or fighters. He made public picks and Page is trying to use websites like this to “promote” his next fight anyway he can.
I am tired of the WWE type promotion. MMA is a sport. There is no argument in the world that can convince any rational human that scripted-wrestling is a sport. Are those guys athletes? I would say, no, since there is no competition. Sure it takes a ton of physical skill, and athleticism, but most of them are failed athletes at the sport that they attempted in high school/college. That is why they are doing this now.

Current title contender trashing a guy who gave him sponsorship money who is now retired? I dont like that being news, if it was someone who Rampage could really have a beef with then I would say its news worthy.

If someone from MMA, whether a fighter, or personality
is seen at a boxing match or at ringside at a WWE match or even in a NBA game Id like to see that get reported. Even if its jus a fanshot.
Its not anything substantial, but its somewhat interesting and I like to see that getting reported. This is different however, this might create a bigger story in the future. Prolly involving Lensar.
Besides this a blog, and just like I told Chirst over at Bad Left Hook, pipe down a lil and just try to have fun with it. Apparantly, idk if he followed my advice or not, but he covered a “Pantydropper of the week” that involved Wladimir Klitschko.
If you dont like the lil bits that add to the website you can always go to Blood Vag, which is less “fun” and more about “business”, which you are already an active member of…
I’ve never considered myself as a legend – just a simple man with heart.
Why don't you ever talk to me about MMA?
Thank you for explaining to me free will and making sure you point out my continuing affiliation with www.bloodyelbow.com

Huh?

And why’d you link BE? o.O

This is not an MMA conversation
it is you telling me to go somewhere else. The only time you reply to me is when you are being cute with a pic/gif, or you have a problem with a non-mma related issue. While I don’t mind discussing other things, I prefer to do it with someone that brings somethin positive to the conversation. If you can do that, great. Show me.
I linked www.bloodyelbow.com because the stupid rivalry is stupid.

I don't see the issue here.
While this not be the most informative article with regards to MMA, it’s still MMA related No? This article is simply a lead-up to something that could turn out to be huge.
I for one feel I get every pennies worth from this site.

Didn't McMahon retire or something? I heard he relinquished his position
as the top dog to someone else? Or was it just Melzer making stories up again?

It's a storyline
just like everything else in the WWE.
I don't follow WWE so I don't know.
I just heard it reported on one of these SBNAtion sites, how many of them are there? I don’t even know is the replacement. I mean who can replace Vince really? I thought Shane but .

I follow it online I dont watch the actual product
This Vince getting replaced thing is part of a storyline and Vince does still have complete control of the WWE but in real life Paul Levesque(Triple H) and Stephanie McMahon-Levesque are being groomed by Vince to take over.
Paul Levesque. haha. Lucky son of a gun.

I bet it has to do with the UFC channel
They want to broker a deal to get Vince’s wrestling on their soon to be network/channel.
Dana went to see if he could get Vince to teach him how to strut the way he does
"It’s Mark Pavelich calling from the Maximum Fighting Championship,
I’ve just received notice that Drew Fickett or you, I don’t care which one of you fuckers did it, has signed a contract to fight in Strikeforce this fucking weekend. I’m going to get on a fucking plane soon and go where you’re at and choke you the fuck out. I’m telling you right now, I’ve had enough of your fucking shit. First of all, I’ve sent you the fucking pictures and secondly, I placed Drew Fickett in a fight fucking months ago and five weeks prior to my main event of my fucking fight card. You’re going to give me a fucking call tomorrow or I swear I’ll get on a fucking plane and go right where you’re at right now. You’re pissing me off, I’ve been nothing but professional to you motherfuckers and you’re doing this kind of bullshit, alright? Call me back, I’m fucking pissed."
