Over the last few months WWE has made some major cuts as the company has released a significant number of talents as well as office employees. The releases were reportedly due to budget cuts, but they got the wrestling world talking, and some people in the community think that Vince McMahon is getting ready to sell WWE.
Vince has to be positioning to sell the WWE right?

I reported last year that @WWE was in the process of being sold to Disney. Most people responded STFU. But lately, it appears that something is happening and it could be true. Do you think Vince might be selling? @SKWrestling_ @RickUcchino

Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics recently noted that he has talked to several people in the “WWE investor community” and that none of them believe that WWE is being prepped for a sale.
“I talked with 5 people in the WWE investor community in the last 24 hours about the notion that the company’s recent actions indicate they’re preparing for a sale. Not one of them thought so. Even the stock price is no-selling wrestling Twitter.”
