Earlier today, former WWE writer Freddie Prinze Jr. made some comments on his podcast indicating that according to his sources, ESPN officials are very unhappy at the returns of the recent deal they struck with WWE to stream premium live events on their new app.
Fightfulselect.com reached out to individuals in both ESPN and WWE for a statement on Prinze's comments. ESPN officials claimed that they hadn't heard that sort of talk within their company and have enjoyed working with WWE thus far.
A WWE official didn't really confirm or deny the claim but took a shot at Prinze Jr. by stating that "no one in WWE upper management is aware of Freddie Prinze's role in wrestling or otherwise."
