Shortly after the groundbreaking announcement that UFC's parent company, Endeavor, is bringing UFC and WWE together in a to-be-named company, wrestling journalists Petesy Carroll, Chuck Mindenhall, and Troy Farkas are here to take you through this historic news, discussing topics like:

• Instant reactions to the announcement (3:20)
• Beyond the financial implications, what this deal actually means for the UFC's path moving forward
• With questions already swirling about the legitimacy of the UFC, will this deal lead to even more doubts concerning match fixing (11:40) ?
• The new corporate power structure and the roles of business tycoons Vince McMahon and Dana White within it (38:46)

Plus, the guys take questions (21:25) from the fans about Ariel’s relationship with WWE, how this news could affect UFC's pay structure, whether WWE or UFC is the bigger winner in this, and dream tag team scenarios. In doing all this, the guys realize they actually know very little about WWE. Looks like we’ll have to fix that.
