I guess it's pretty serious if ESPN got this as a top headline right now.

XL 06-16-2022 06:03 AM

It’s a work.

Mr. Nerfect 06-16-2022 07:22 AM

Apparently the Vince McMahon vs. Oliver Luck stuff is not getting any nicer either.

I can seriously see this being the reason Vince steps down. Even if it’s his money, his wealth is pretty tied up in WWE, right? If he’s selling stock to pay paralegals insane amounts of money to be fuck buddies, that could lead to a lack of faith that could affect the stock price and WWE’s relationships.

Vince has always seemed to have the backing of stakeholders. There was this idea that he has to be the guy there to do it. An untimely departure for whatever reason would have been what damaged the stock. Now it seems that there’s movements within the company to actually remove him. Even if this isn’t the direct cause of it, there seems to be a different attitude towards Vince McMahon now. As soon as he stops being the best figurehead for WWE, he’ll go.

McLegend 06-16-2022 08:36 AM

Now this could be the end, but Vince has gotten out of some shady thins before. We’ll see..

My first thought was will Linda divorce him now that this is public?

IC Champion 06-16-2022 10:04 AM

Linda doesn’t care other than it’s public knowledge. She probably has a hot Puerto Rican bf who lives in a condo she pays for. They’re aren’t married for love. It’s a business partnership more than anything. It’s like none of you watch Succession.

IC Champion 06-16-2022 10:06 AM

I just saw someone call it “Hush Money in the Bank”

Yes it's just for publicity and business kind of like the Clintons. Also, I'm sure Vince has had many affairs with employees ND paid hush money several times but this just happened to be the one that he fucked up on and got leaked. Anyway, the fact that this his come out now that he's 76 and probably closer to the end of his run with the company and most likely only has like ten more years to live at most makes this a lot less impactive on himaelf than it would have been even 5 or 10 years ago. He's going to take a hit financially no doubt but when it's all said and done, the McMahons will be fine

Yes this is probably someone behind the scenes or in the office but I would put money that Vince has dipped into some of the divas in his time

Jordan 06-16-2022 12:15 PM

He probably fucked Melina after Batista did and Jo Mo didn't say SHIT.

Crippla 06-16-2022 12:22 PM

Was she with Morrison at that time or Mike Knox? Either way, they're both too much of a pussy with serious lack of self esteem clearly to be committed in a relationship with someone they know is fucking other guys and making them look like a fool but most likely ignore it or look the other way. It shows a huge lack of confidence and poor self respect imo

Jordan 06-16-2022 12:30 PM

Likely that Vince banged Trish IDK WHY but I just think so. I'd love to have seen a prime Trish getting absolutely SMASHED by Vince sex tape leak back in the day!

Crippla 06-16-2022 12:37 PM

I would say Candice Michelle would be a likely candidate as someone who would bang the boss

Crippla 06-16-2022 12:47 PM

Other than that, I don't think he fucked any of the more popular women in the company, just the diva search contestants and flashes in the pan and of course behind the scenes and office employees but it's all speculation anyway

That’s true. What seems different about this is that there seem to be sharks in the water. The riverbed has been disturbed. A lot of negative shit is going to be given the chance to come to surface.

With Linda, I guess it depends on her political aspirations and whether they decide her being attached to Vince is a good idea or or not.

Yeah, if they’re already talking about finding additional NDAs for Vince and others, I would bet a significant amount of money that there is going to be a lot more they uncover doing a thorough investigation.

Fignuts 06-16-2022 02:29 PM

If Vince really is ousted from the company, that could be bad for AEW. We've heard numerous times from former talents that creative actually comes up with a lot of good ideas, but ultimately, one man is the source of their frustration.

If that one man is gone, then WWE might be a more appealing workplace for a lot of people who had previously left.

Crippla 06-16-2022 02:41 PM

Yes but on the business and financial side of things, it might be a bit of downfall depending on who takes over that position especially since Vince has most likely established many tight business relationships over the years and the change they have a bit of a negative effect on some of them

Crippla 06-16-2022 02:41 PM

A press release issued this morning by WWE noted that Stephanie McMahon has been named interim CEO and Chairman of the Board. Stephanie had recently announced that she was taking a leave of absence from the company. Vince McMahon will still be in charge of WWE creative. McMahon said he will cooperate and pledged to support whatever the investigation turns up.

“I have pledged my complete cooperation to the investigation by the Special Committee, and I will do everything possible to support the investigation. I have also pledged to accept the findings and outcome of the investigation, whatever they are.”
