Could we witness Vince McMahon in AEW? Brandon Thurston has reported that following up on a question he was asked on Wednesday on Pollock & Thurston Vince McMahon’s March 2023 employment agreement contained a 12-month non-compete covenant.
It has been noted that it’s not that there’s any specific indication he will. However, if Vince were to try to re-enter the wrestling business outside of WWE, he would have to wait 12 months from his termination. His resignation was reported on January 26, 2024.

The status of Vince McMahon with WWE still remains a mystery after the trafficking lawsuit which was added beside his name. It has been noted that though there haven’t been any conclusions on the lawsuit yet, WWE has started parting ways with their former CEO in the slowest and smoothest ways possible.
A recent report revealed that WWE’s parent company, TKO and Endeavour, had acquired shares from McMahon for around $293 million. However, following the transaction, the former CEO of WWE still had more than 8,000,000 shares of the company to his name.
A new filing has revealed that the remaining 8,021,405 shares of McMahon have also been registered for sale. This doesn’t mean that the shares have been sold or that all the shares will be sold immediately but this is a massive hint that McMahon would be completely away from WWE once this transaction becomes official.
In addition to McMahon’s shares, the report also suggests that 234,424 shares of Nick Khan and 3508 shares of TKO Board member, Steve Koonin, have also been registered for sale.
