Nick Khan: There Would Be No WWE Without Vince McMahon And Kevin Dunn, Both The Greatest Of All Time
Nick Khan praises Vince McMahon and Kevin Dunn.
WWE reached new heights on Tuesday when the company announced a deal with Netflix that will bring WWE Raw to Netflix beginning in January 2025. Along with the Netflix deal, it was announced that The Rock (Dwayne Johnson) would be joining the TKO Board of Directors.
Speaking to Pat McAfee on the Pat McAfee Show, WWE President Nick Khan commented on the big announcements.
“There would be no WWE without Vince McMahon and Kevin Dunn. Both, in my opinion, the greatest of all time in terms of what they did and what they contributed to build what is now a massive enterprise. In terms of the transaction and moving it forward, Vince is a controlling shareholder, he decided it was time to transact, he allowed me to sit side by side with him in the process to hear all of the different pitches. It was a robust market place. Endeavor had the best proposal, we felt, for our shareholders, and here we are with the Netflix deal being announced, with Dwayne Johnson being added to our Board of Directors, we feel like it’s a great start what we feel should be a beautiful next chapter at WWE,” said Khan.
McMahon still serves as the Executive Chairman of TKO. Dunn departed WWE at the end of 2023 after spending three decades with the company and serving as the Executive Producer of Intermedia Productions.
Elsewhere during the interview, Khan revealed how he first got into contact with WWE. You can find his full comments by clicking here.
