Vince McMahon’s name mentioned during WWE WrestleMania 43 press conference
On Friday afternoon, it was confirmed that WWE WrestleMania 43 will be take place in Saudi Arabia. While speaking at a press conference, Turki Al-Sheikh stated the following about the event…
“First of all, I want to thank the Crown Prince, who supported us. Without him, we can not do anything, and with his support, especially also for WWE, this will happen in our country, and before eight years ago, I meet my father, Vince McMahon, and Triple H, in my home when I was the Minister of Sport in my country, and I say to them, ‘Let’s go and have change into the future doing big project together.’ I hope we deliver now some of what we say.”
“[A] couple of years [ago], my close friend, Nick Khan, became the President of WWE. Now, we are saying to him that ‘you are continuing the legacy of Vince McMahon, and you delivered for us a very big project, and very big surprise will come in this year and next year.’ I see WrestleMania in Vegas bringing 200,000 people to Vegas and bringing $1.5 billion for the city.”
Turki Alalshikh thanks Nick Khan for keeping the legacy of Vince McMahon going.
