Vince McMahon "retires" *Megathread* Mod warning added in post 437

It is not sad at all the man is a F’N monster who deserves to be in prison till he dies and then burn in hell for eternity.

His behaviour is despicable but without him, there is no professional wrestling!

He brought it out of the territories and made it global.

Stephaine McMahon along with COO Brad Blum and WWE President Nick Khan and Brian Nurse former general counsel and head of WWE’s legal department have now been named as the previously unnamed corporte officers mentioned as the key figures in the WWE sex trafficing lawsuit.

The company is rotten to the core.

Endeavour really need to clear house and take a long hard look into Triple H too to be sure.

Right now it's looking like there won't be single 'original' working there by the time this saga ends, and what I must wonder to myself is whether this is something that Emmanuel had planned all along. The timing of it seems very convenient.

I see Paul Heyman is getting inducted into the HoF. I have a suspicion that it could be Heyman who gets the job as creative head if Triple H is forced to suddenly retire. He may be far enough from the controversy (by a degree of millimeters, admittedly) to just about hang in there.

@PTH2009 got me

It looks like Brock is back listed on the active roster from alumni

Triple H must have gone blind and deaf a decade ago not to know what was going on with his wife and father in law and with other executives in the company he was an executive in.

Stephanie's absolutely up to her neck in the seediness of WWE, I would say. I know Nick Khan has been named in the lawsuit in some way, but I would be surprised if he's as involved as everyone else, though I obviously cannot rule this out. Nick Khan is an actual proper business person, as opposed to some depraved wrestling carny in a suit. If he'd seen that kind of thing going on, I'd imagine his self preservation instinct would have kicked in forthwith and gotten well the hell away from it.

Unfortunately for Mr. Kahn, this kind of situation is almost binary, meaning no degrees of the thing will be tolerated. If he's in any way linked to facilitating what allegedly went on with McMahon and this woman, he'll be shown the door.

Yeah I'd agree and this WWE was also a publicly traded company this time and Khan was answerable to the shareholders of that company and if he knew the job created for the woman was a fake job then he is also tangentially invloved in facilitating the abuse.

So later on as Co-CEO with Steph and one of the people tasked to investage claim against Vince he knew the job he signed off on was a fake job yet he since found no issue with that investigation and reinstaged Vince.

So he was completely incompetent for the position he was in (Which I highly doubt) or he turned a blind eye which is even worse.

Why does "knowing" about McMahon giving a fake job to his lover make other people criminal as well?

Its not giving his lover a job that was the problem, it was the coercion and illegal crap that happened behind closed doors.

I know a guy who gave his nephew a cushy job, do I become a criminal if it turns out there was something dodgy going on between them back at home?

Lots of people will know McMahon was involved with this woman, but relationships aren't illegal, just knowing about it doesn't mean they were involved. For example, if Mahon told his PA to book a hotel room, then later abused the woman in it, is the PA a criminal for booking a hotel room for what she thought were two consenting adults?

I heard a recent interview with her and she calls the WWE a shitshow but she didn't clarify in what way exactly. My guess is there'll be very little criticism of the WWE in the book but she'll bury them in any interview she does.

She joined the WWE in 2018ish didn't she? It's hard to believe that being a wrestling fan she didn't know what McMahon was like before she joined, people were talking about him for years.

The Athletic making sure it is kept in the news this week

Good to see the media keeping what Vince and others did in the spotlight.

It's mad and something we never would of predicted 5-10 years ago. Really thought he'd die on the job

Any truth to the 'setting up a new wrestling company' talk ?

His ego is hurt and will out to 'kill his own creation' or some bollocks

I think one of the prosecutors said their may be additional victims? Vince will need a lot of money to get out of this and even then its not something that he can clear his name overnight.

Vince's name may become so toxic that he's never able to do business in the States at a high level again, assuming he even beats the charges. He could, however, do something with the Saudis, who couldn't give a **** about how women are treated.

surely with all the steroids hes taken over his life, his body must be gone to shite!

Interesting to see who else this brings down. Its far from over. 2025 could be a massacre in WWE.

the amount of STDs that man must have had in his lifetime must be crazy, adding the coprophilia fetish too it and there's no surprise he's ill . dirty dirty man
