Vince McMahon officially has a new role after WWE and UFC merged into TKO Group Holdings on Tuesday.

, McMahon is believed to hold veto power in his new role, which could potentially be used in UFC decision making.However, it is added that it would be 'very surprising' if McMahon used his veto power in relation to UFC.

For the first time since his acquisition of WWE, though, McMahon will have someone else above him in the political hierarchy, with Ari Emanuel the CEO of Endeavor and TKO Group Holdings. According to Khan, the 78-year-old started to give consideration to a partnership between Endeavor and WWE when he attended a UFC event in July.:"It's not really his thing to go to basketball games, football games - it's just not what he does."When he decided, 'Yeah, I want to go,' ... and when he went, that's when I believe he started thinking about it, and it all started to manifest when we engaged in a fulsome process starting this past January.
