Why all the McMahon hate? Does anybody realize how far he has taken the wrestling business over the years. Prior to his taking over of the then WWF from his father, the wrestling industry was nothing but a regional based industry, with organizations operating within small territories. McMahon changed that, he has made the WWE a global organization.
McMahon and Dana each have done the same thing to both sports, taking them from the small show to the big time.
I can understand not liking wrestling, but I hate to break it to you the UFC and WWE have virtually the same business models, the difference being that one sport has predetermined outcomes while the other is a legitimate competition. Both companies emphasize marketing their big stars and turning the new up and commers into mega-stars, this is a recipe for success, and the primary reason why both companies and Presidents have done so well with their respective organizations, and why the competitors have not fared so well.
There are plenty of reasons to not like McMahon or Dana, but the fact of the matter is you can not deny their success. I don't know if there is any truth to these rumors but I personally would not see it as a detriment to the UFC or MMA.
