Dana White, the President of UFC, has responded to the recent news of WWE’s sale to Endeavor and subsequent merger with the UFC to form a new combat sports entertainment company worth $21 billion, in a statement given to MMAFighting.com. He said,
“This company has been on fire for the last seven years and now that we will be adding WWE to the portfolio, I am excited to take this to another level. Vince is a savage in the wrestling space, Ari is a beast at what he does, and then add what we at UFC bring to the table and there is no limit to what this company can accomplish in the next five years.”
