Pat McAfee Comments On His Future With WWE, Mentions Sale Rumors

In a post on Twitter, Pat McAfee contemplating his future in his various ventures, including his commentator job in WWE. He noted that the birth of his daughter and the rumors of WWE being sold were a part of it. Here are highlights:

On the success of the Pat McAfee Show: “Going thru all of the numbers.. facts are facts.. We’ve really been quite a fucking disruptor in this whole daily Sports Media world. I’m VERY proud of it.. We don’t have producers giving us takes or researchers telling us what to talk about.. We don’t have any investors.. We don’t have a “lead in audience” or “people leaving their TVs on over night”.. We, alongside our incredible fanbase, built this thing both literally and figuratively.. we decide what to chat about.. we pay for the footage rights.. We negotiate the deals with our partners.. and we changed the game. That’s rather epic… what’s next though? A LOT of fun to think about.. Show will always be free but we need to keep evolving.”

On working on College Gameday: “How about @CollegeGameDay? That was a good time… No long term deal in place but, I enjoyed the workload that came with being a part of one of the most iconic shows in the history of sports. I think we had the greatest year it’s had in like 2 decades or something ratings wise… fucking WILD.. I was told a lot of Old Whites weren’t gonna watch because of me.. Got to see so many insanely beautiful campuses/places.. being new man on the totem pole when it came to hotel rooms (impossible to book, Shahtaht to the GameDay crew behind the scenes.. absolute LEGENDS) was good for me. Took me back to my roots… will DEFINITELY be getting a bus if GameDay continues to be in the ol’ life schedule.”

On his future in WWE: “Baby girl on the way… what’s that mean for my future with @WWE? I LOVE it but, they’re allegedly gonna be sold, who’s buying them? Do I want to work/make money for those people?”

Man… brain’s been COOKIN

Excited to get back but I love this annual think sesh at the beach with my bride..

The future of #PMSLive has been a lot of fun to think about..
