WWE made an earth-shattering deal this week when they finalized the UFC and WWE merger. The promotion made headlines by announcing that they would operate under TKO Group Holdings. According to some new reports, WWE might undergo major changes in its presentation in the upcoming months.
According to BWE via Ringside News, WWE is discussing introducing new title belts. In essence, the company can most likely be divided into weight categories as well. Moreover, WWE is planning to introduce new stages for its two flagship shows, RAW and SmackDown. However, the changes are apparently not close.
After the merger, WWE is going to be a huge asset for Endeavor. These changes might revamp the company and give fans an idea of the involvement of the new deal. As of now, WWE has not used the TKO logo on their programming. However, the changes seem inevitable at some point.
It will be interesting to see the changes in programming after the merger between UFC and WWE. The companies will seemingly undergo a transition following the historic merger. Triple H will be continuing his position as WWE Head of Creative after the deal while Vince McMahon will be the Executive Chairman of TKO.
Nick Khan opens up about an “All Star TKO Weekend”
Nick Khan is one of the top WWE figures in management, serving as President of TKO Group Holdings. His presence is significant on WWE programming. Therefore, he shared a few words regarding the “All-Star TKO Weekend.” Khan talked about this huge merger between WWE and UFC in a recent podcast.
In a conversation with The Bill Simmons Podcast, the WWE President went on to say, “Yes, what everyone envisions is, can you set up an all-star TKO weekend where SmackDown goes on Friday, UFC on Saturday with pay-per-view, and WWE goes with a premium live event on Sunday?” It was an interesting pitch from President Nick Khan himself.
It will be interesting to see if Endeavor actually capitalizes on this great opportunity. TKO can use superstars like Ronda Rousey and Brock Lesnar, who hold significant value in both companies, as representatives for these huge crossovers as well. It will be incredible to watch the changes taking place in WWE after this deal.
