According to reports, Vince McMahon is plotting a WWE return, which is major news for anyone who has followed the company over the last year. His resignation in 2022 was one of the most monumental moments in WWE history, but it could all be undone in the coming months.
McMahon resigned in disgrace following allegations of paying hush money to his female employees. After he stepped down, Stephanie McMahon and Nick Khan took over as co-CEOs, while Triple H assumed the role of Head of Creative. They have done an excellent job of running the empire he worked to create.
However, it seems like the former Chairman is indeed working on making a grand comeback to the company. Despite his resignation, he has majority voting power because of his possession of stocks.
The Wall Street Journal report states that Vince McMahon informed the board that he planned to make a WWE return and elect him and two former associates as directors. For this to happen, three current board members will have to step down, complicating the whole thing.
McMahon, George Barrios, and Michelle Wilson are expected to replace JoEllen Lyons Dillon, Jeffrey R. Speed, and Alan M. Wexler on the Board of Directors of WWE.
McMahon's potential WWE return is something of a mixed bag. Since he stepped down from power, the product has been heading in a fresh and exciting direction. Should he return, we could see some major changes once again. However, the hush money allegations against him may make a comeback more difficult than expected.
