Dana White says he doesn't know anything about it.
On August 27th, WrestleVotes reported that, according to a source, the WWE Performance Center would be moving to Las Vegas, as the news was shared at a meeting led by TKO President and COO Mark Shapiro. Fightful Select then reported that WWE sources said that the claim was false, and no sources that the WWE Performance Center had heard of any plans to move to Las Vegas.
At the Post-Fight Press Conference following Dana White's Contender Series on August 27th, UFC President Dana White was asked about the rumors of the WWE Performance Center moving to Las Vegas.
“It’s none of my business. I know nothing about it [laughs]. It’s none of my business. Let the WWE talk about their business," White said.
