#1. Paul London reveals details of Vince McMahon allegedly harassing Ashley Massaro

Several stories about Vince McMahon are gradually emerging online in the wake of multiple sexual misconduct allegations that have been leveled against him.

Paul London revealed on the Cafe De Rene podcast that Vince McMahon allegedly often tried to get Ashley Massaro to fly on his jet. The former CEO would even go up to her hotel room and knock on her door several times, which wasn't a comfortable situation for Massaro.

London stated that the female star, who worked for WWE between 2005 and 2008, cried while telling him about her unsettling interactions with the boss.

"I do remember, specifically, many times when she would be crying to me because Vince was propositioning her to fly on the jet with them. Kevin Dunn, Bucktooth Bucky, would be telling her that she has to fly on the jet with them… Every now and then, they'd always put the Divas up at like the TV hotel or whatever, he'd be knocking on her door and trying to get her to answer," said London.

Ashley Massaro, unfortunately, passed away on May 16th, 2019, merely a few days before her 40th birthday.

#3. The Bella Twins are open to a WWE return

During a recent interview with TVInsider, The Bella Twins confirmed that they wouldn't rule out returning to the squared circle one more time.

Nikki and Brie Bella have not wrestled since competing at the 2022 Women's Royal Rumble and are happy with their lives post-WWE.

However, Nikki explained that they couldn't stay away from the ring for long. She and her sister would be willing to return if there was a chance to "enhance another female star."

The Bella Twins don't wish to take the spotlight away from current superstars who appear weekly on TV. That being sad, the former Divas Champions will consider storylines where they can help other wrestlers:

"Wrestling never leaves you. I hear that from all the past legends. Wrestling is always there with you. I'm told nobody ever retires…. If it's the right moment and it makes sense, we will be back. The one thing Brie and I have been so respectful of is the other women's time. They are there every week. They work really hard. We never want to come in and take away an opportunity. If there is an opportunity where it enhances a female superstar, we would be there in a heartbeat," said Nikki.

The Bella Twins were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2020. They remain two of the most recognizable faces in women's wrestling despite their absence from the business.
