FightfulSelect.com reported that sources at WWE HQ said that when Stephanie McMahon’s team was dismantled, a usually composed Stephanie was disheartened and frustrated about how it happened.
Vince McMahon was the CEO of WWE before he had to step down following allegations of sexual misconduct and allegedly having paid $12 million in hush money in a huge scandal last year. Many fans believed he was retired forever, but that was not the case. This is because Vince McMahon returned to WWE last week and last night, he became the Executive Chairman of WWE once again after his daughter Stephanie McMahon resigned. Nick Khan is now the sole CEO of WWE while Triple H remains the Creative Head of WWE.
Following Vince McMahon’s return to WWE, there have been rumors that he plans on selling the company to Saudi Arabia.
Some have tried to tie in Stephanie’s resignation to the fact that women are considered second-class in Saudi Arabia.
