This year fans got to witness one of the biggest mergers in the sports entertainment industry. Combat sports giant, Endeavor took over WWE and formed one umbrella company called TKO group. Apart from the Stanford-based promotion, UFC also falls under the same group. Due to this, long-time rivals, Dana White and Vince McMahon are now co-workers. But when two alphas happen to work together, there is a lot of friction that could take center stage.

Recently Dana White made a confession about his past relationship with WWE and Vince McMahon. A couple of days later, McMahon made a statement showing that he thinks that he is superior to White.

Is Vince McMahon a better businessman?

Vince McMahon and The Undertaker were present at the Battle of the Baddest fight between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Taker and McMahon were present in the city for the upcoming Crown Jewel as well. On the red carpet, the duo were asked a series of questions and one was related to McMahon’s business partner, Dana White. The Undertaker was asked about the dynamics between the two businessmen. To this, the WWE Hall of Famer replied, “I think it’s hilarious they’re so similar”.

The merger which happened in September this year has brought the two former rivals together. With this new perspective, Dana White recently opened up about how much Vince McMahon has changed.

Dana White outlines his relationship with Vince McMahon

Recently in an interview, White opened up about his past relationship with WWE and Vince McMahon. He confessed that before the merger, McMahon had tried to “f— him” multiple times just for the sake of it. White believes that before the merger, McMahon used to see him just as a rival and hence tried to cause trouble for him. But after the merger, things have changed. He said that it feels like he is working with a completely new person. According to him, this goes to show that if he considers someone as a rival, he will cause problems for them. And if he considers someone as a friend, he will be supporting them.

Apart from that, White too thinks that Vince McMahon is a better businessman than him. In his own words, Vince McMahon is “the Michael Jordan of the business world.” He is particularly fascinated by the work ethics of the businessman, especially since he is about to reach 80 years of age. Since the merger, the relationship between the two has changed, and it has affected the promotion as well. With the decision to revive an old branch of WWE green-lit by Endeavor, only time will tell about the duo’s future ‘endeavors’.
