1.Billy Corgan- Singer with The Smashing Pumkins- Has the money to buy it. Doesn't have the money to run it. 2.Country Singer John Rich-he has a net worth of $6 million. Not a lot of money for a big operation. 3.The Wilpon family, who own the New York Mets, are reportedly interested in getting into the wrestling business.Fred Wilpon is an American real estate developer who has a net worth of $500 million. Fred Wilpon is the Co-Founder and Chairman of Sterling Equities (SE), a real estate company that serves in building projects across the US, mainly in New York. Together with Saul Katz, Wilpon established the company back in 1972. Since the 80's, SE owns New York Mets.From 2011,Wrestlezone is reporting that the family has made some pretty big strides in their attempt at getting in, at this point collecting such names as Sean Waltman, Scott Steiner, Shane Douglas, Larry Zbyszko, and even Vader. This so-called start-up group of the Wilpon family has supposedly already signed these names to contracts, and has approached some unnamed Ring of Honor wrestlers. It’s also being said that the group has interest in some “disgruntled” TNA workers.Now yhis was in 2011, so where do they fit in now?Chris Jericho has also supposedly been contacted through “mutual friends.”The contracts already signed reportedly do not go into effect, and no one will begin getting paid until around October or November. The group will shop its product first as a reality show, then flesh it out into a real wrestling promotion. Attachments:
