The third deal took place in April 2023. In 2022, his net worth was estimated to be around USD 2 Billion while his current net worth is estimated to be around $3 Billion due to the rise in WWE stock in the month.

In 2001, Mr.McMahon ventured into the world of American football when he created a professional football league of his own, dubbed the XFL in which he tried to infuse professional wrestling with professional football by bringing in WWE personalities such as Jesse Ventura, Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler as part of the on-air commentary team alongside veteran sports personalities and pundits.


The league however lasted only one season before ultimately getting disbanded.
