Since when McMahon rules the world? Of course since the WWE make a big show in television. Now Vince McMahon’s World Wrestling Entertainment Inc., wants to start its own cable network.

According the LATimes whisch said that,
McMahon, 64, is hawking a kinder, gentler, wrestling show, and that new approach was on display this past weekend when WWE took over L.A. Live as part of a massive promotional push. The effort culminated with SummerSlam, a sold-out pay-per-view telecast at Staples Center on Sunday night, which was also expected to generate roughly 500,000 purchases across the country.
About 7,000 people stood in long lines under the hot sun Saturday and Sunday to get the autographs of WWE stars and watch exhibition matches during SummerSlam Axxess, which is basically fan appreciation day. Some drove for hours to be there — Yolanda Barajas came down from San Francisco with her two kids for the weekend because they are such huge fans.
McMahon is also a force on pay-per-view. WWE does about 14 pay-per-view events annually that attract anywhere from 500,000 to 1.4 million buys. In other words, he has some juice with distributors. With a library of over 100,000 hours of programming, he’s not lacking for content.
Just wait and see!
