News and Notes From WWE Shareholders Meeting, Status of WWE Network

By Josh Isenberg

Vince McMahonWWE held a shareholders meeting on Friday to talk about some of the WWE news heading into a new part of the year. They always have this post-Wrestlemania update on the company.

While there was not much that came out of the meetings, a few pieces of information are still certain. Vince McMahon is still certain that the WWE Network will be a success when it launches. There is still no specific target date for the network. The meeting, which usually can last up to 2-3 hours only went just shy of an hour. A member of the meeting claimed Vince's answers were short and very submissive.

-When asked about The Rock having his last match, Vince laughed it off and went to another question. He also said they are pleased with the ratings and the third hour of WWE Raw each week.

WWE CFO George Barrios spoke and said WWE will triple their revenue through the Network and monetizing their social media.
