Vince McMahon recently got involved in a fresh controversy. The latest Wall Street Journal story on Vince alleged that he paid at least 4 women over 16 years to cover up sexual misconduct. After the report about additional non-disclosure agreements that were signed to keep women quiet, many are wondering if more people will come out with accusations. Vince reportedly reacted to the allegations.
Vince McMahon documentary could on its way
On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer recently revealed that a big documentary on Vince McMahon is in the works. This documentary is not being made by WWE. Meltzer noted that there are a million stories that can be covered in that documentary even without company participation.
“The Vince one is one of the biggest stories of our lifetime… By the way, there’s a big doc about to be done on Vince. Not made by WWE, yeah. You don’t need wrestling footage, there’s so much news footage and there are million stories. There’s so much to that story.”
Vince McMahon recently announced his retirement from his roles as Chairman and CEO of WWE. It was later clarified that he was also done with his work on creative. Some reports have emerged regarding his backstage performance as well. It was revealed that Stephanie McMahon and Nick Khan will serve as Co-CEOs of WWE, while Triple H is EVP of Talent Relations and Head of Creative.
It has also come to light WWE reportedly paid Trump $4 million for his appearance on the grandest stage of them all. The payments went to the Donald J. Trump Foundation. Recently, WWE stated in a public filing that it found an additional $5.0 million in unrecorded company expenses related to two payments former CEO and chairman Vince McMahon made in 2007 and 2009. Brandon Thurston reported that it seems more likely it’s connected to the former President of The United States of America Donald Trump.
