An interesting theory about the WWE/Saudi deal

  3. An interesting theory about the WWE/Saudi deal

I saw this theory posted on reddit:

You’ll find this interesting. I worked for campaigns in NY for the last 11 years and people are starting to talk, they smell blood in the water.. There is a lot of speculation behind the WWE/Saudi partnership, Linda McMahon’s current position, and the Trump 2020 campaign. If a single dollar looks out of place, the McMahons will be the next Trump allies to get investigated by Congress.
I’m nobody, just a fly on the wall but there’s a popular theory that the credibility of the last couple shows is being used as a cover for Crown Jewel to launder a massive donation from the prince into the official Trump 2020 “America First Action” super PAC, coincidentally chaired by Linda McMahon.

The show’s costs are arbitrary and unorthodox, which sets this apart from every other US/Saudi partnership. It’d be relatively easy for them to receive $25 million and nobody bats an eye. MBS supports a 2020 Trump presidency and there’s a reason Linda is the 1 person in charge of courting major donors.

Saudi Prince MBS once invested $45 billion after a 45 minute conversation with a venture capitalist. He is worth an estimated $1.4 trillion. He can fund Trump’s whole campaign off the books but foreign donors in a presidential election are illegal. Hence, the cloak and dagger. Forget about WWE for a second, if there is a person directly responsible for soliciting foreign donors for Trump’s 2020 campaign, it would be the chairperson of his official super PAC. The fact this person is Linda McMahon means there are a lot of hungry people watching her every move after Crown Jewel looking to make their bones on this.

Again, I’m just a fly on the wall. All it takes is 1 leak from the campaign or 1 disgruntled accountant, Vince and Linda will be dragged in front of a House Committee to answer questions on whether or not their shows are being used to accept foreign donations for American elections.
The main takeaway is that Linda’s job is to raise funds for Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign. People from his 2016 campaign are STILL under investigation. I shorted WWE stock because I’m betting she fucks up. Getting questioned live on CSPAN, associated to Trump‘s campaign will hurt their stock. Investors have reputations to uphold.

I honestly wouldnt put it past the McMahons. But again this is just a post by some guy from reddit

This makes way more sense. There are way more discreet and efficent ways for Saudi Arabia to flood Trump's coffers then via a high profile, controversial, partnership with the WWE.

Trump and his associates have loads of businesses receiving outsized fees from foreign countries as a way to curry favor with him. This really isn't surprising. Just throw it on the pile of emolument clause violations.

Does that mean Seth would have no other place to go but the minor leagues? :/

Not ridiculous. Almost everyone around Trump have been caught doing something illegal. Vince & Linda have a deep history of super shady business practices.

Wwe is audited by Deloitte. There's no way they would even try this with a public company as big as WWE and big 4 audit firm.

I doubt this is true but wouldn't be surprised. The fact that this country still does business with Saudi and Russia is so sad that its a but funny.

The WWE is one of the most high profile corporations controversial in the United States, There's a whole media complex that has been built up just around the WWE. Not to mention all those six and seven figure contracts the WWE has to hand out.

Further more the WWE/Saudi deal has been subject to intense scrutiny since day one, and yet it has been hyped significantly from the WWE.
Stopped reading at "Trump". Take it to the politics board, idc.

I don’t know if I buy entirely into the theory...I can believe that Linda and Vince (Althought they both should be smarter then that) would get caught up in Donald’s shady shit in some way.

It would look worse for Vince since he has the XFL starting up (kill then league instantly if happens before)...at best I could see shareholders forcing Vince to sell the shares off and have him vacate his position for WWE (if he cares about saving the company)

Also, remember that last few interviews Vince has had (the Bob Costes and Real Sports interviews) were he’s been very confrontational when facing interviewers....this would make him look really bad if he acts this way in front of public Congressional Committee hearings
