BAH GAWD THAT'S THE NARD DAWG'S MUSIC!!! Barstool Sports CEO Erika Nardini Has Reportedly Been Elected To The WWE Board Of Directors
I'm used to seeing coworkers of mine here doing things so cool that my feeble mind forgets they are my coworkers. Pardon My Take interviews at least one person a month that I would geek out about just seeing on the street and Portnoy's bank account has reached a point that I cannot even fathom. But the CEO of Barstool becoming a member of the WWE board after all the wrestling-centric content pumped out here over the years is, to borrow a phrase, bananaland for someone who goes back to when Jack Tunney as the WWF President but also remembers when The Corporation was running wild on the WWF and now can watch The Nard Dawg help bring the greatest wrestling organization on the planet into another Golden Era. To be clear, I have no clue what the fuck a board of directors is or does. But they seem like a huge deal.
I don't know if I have to write "reportedly" or not since Erika's tweet pretty much confirmed it. But I'm not trying to get anybody or any public companies in trouble. You know what, I'm gonna write responsibly too since that's the other big buzzword that starts with R these days (I threw in the Barstool Sports CEO just to give a little SEO bump as well as to throw some salt in the eyes of the haters Mr. Fuji style).
So in addition to dealing with whatever lawsuits and in-office drama the idiots here get into, Erika Nardini now has to worry about shit like the outrageous Spanish announcers table budget impacting the bottom line. I honestly don't know which sports entertainment world is crazier but damn am I blown away but happy to see them actually collide like this. See you on the moon, Vinnie Mac!
I'm not sure if this anniversary falling on today is good news or great news for everyone involved, but it's definitely one of the two.
Make sure to subscribe to Token CEO because I imagine this will likely come on at some point.
