Vince McMahon appeared on WWE programming on multiple occasions after recent allegation reports
Earlier this year, The Wall Street Journal reported that WWE was investigating the allegations made against Vince McMahon.
It was reported that McMahon paid a total of $3 million as part of an alleged affair he had with a former WWE employee. Since then, he has stepped back from his position as the CEO and Chairman of the company.
However, Vince did appear on WWE programming on multiple occasions after that, including an appearance on the following episode of SmackDown. The 76-year-old was also a part of John Cena's 20th Anniversary Celebration a few weeks ago on RAW.
In the aftermath of the reported allegations, McMahon commented on the entire situation courtesy of a press release on WWE's corporate website. He said:
“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.”
As of now, though, McMahon's retirement announcement on Twitter has definitely sent the professional wrestling world into a frenzy.
