WWE

WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) is a big company that produces professional wrestling shows. It is now the most popular company in the wrestling business. Vince J. McMahon started the company in 1963. His son, Vince K. McMahon was the Executive Chairman of the company and ran the company from 1982 until Feburary 2024, when he stepped down after a lawsuit. Currently the CEO is Ari Emanuel, and the president is Nick Khan. Vince's son-in-law Paul Levesque, better known as Triple H, acts as the chief content officer. The company is owned by TKO Group Holdings.

The company used to be known as the World Wrestling Federation or the WWF. They changed their name to World Wrestling Entertainment after a lawsuit filed by the World Wide Fund for Nature, formerly known as the World Wildlife Fund, which uses the "WWF" initials in the United States. In 2011, the company rebranded itself as WWE, although its legal name is still World Wrestling Entertainment.

On April 3, 2023, the WWE and Endeavor agreed that the WWE and Zuffa (Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC's parent company) would merge to create TKO Group Holdings and would be going public on the New York Stock Exchange. The WWE and UFC will stay two seperate products even though their company is now merged. The merger was made official on September 12, 2023.
