Vince McMahon is undoubtedly one of the most controversial names in the world of professional wrestling and there have been many who have been inspired by him. He no longer has the same pull as he used to in WWE, which is why McMahon has now agreed to allow more advertisements on WWE rings.
The former Executive Chairman of WWE ruled the company with an iron fist and made sure everything went according to his vision only. This included WWE rings barely having any form of advertisements.
According to Dave Meltzer on the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it was noted that Vince McMahon was vehemently against advertising on the mats, the barricades, or around the ring. However, things have changed now as he has now agreed to allow more advertisements on WWE rings.
”Another change you can expect is the look of the ringside area. In the past, Vince McMahon was a proponent of a clean ring, meaning no advertising on the mats, the barricades, or around the ring.
Obviously that has changed due to the influence of Nick Khan. They noted that Vince is no longer thinking that way and that advertising in and around the ring will be opening up more advertising inventory and they are very happy McMahon agreed to it.”
Vince McMahon also unloaded 8,400,000 shares of Class A Common Stock recently while TKO Holdings publicly described him as a risk. Regardless, WWE is undergoing a huge change and fans are excited to see how much the company can improve with Vince McMahon no longer running things.
