In a statement on his official social media channels, UFC President Dana White issued a statement on the news that Endeavor, the parent company of UFC, have agreed a deal to purchase the WWE.

The statement reads, “This company has been on fire for the last seven years and now that we will be adding WWE to the portfolio, I am excited to take this to another level. Vince is a savage in the wrestling space, Ari is a beast at what he does and then add what we at UFC bring to the table and there is no limit to what this company can accomplish in the next few years.”
