The Undertaker shares his honest thoughts on Stephanie McMahon becoming the interim CEO of WWE
The Undertaker recently shared his opinion about Stephanie McMahon taking up the interim CEO role in the absence of WWE Chairman Vince McMahon.
Vince McMahon has stepped aside as CEO while WWE's Board of Directors investigates allegations of misconduct. In a bid to support her family, his daughter returned from her leave of absence and took on the role of Interim CEO and Chairwoman.
Speaking on SI.com’s Week in Wrestling, The Undertaker explained why the company is bound to thrive under the boss' daughter. He highlighted her selfless nature and labeled her "incredible." He also went on to state that Stephanie is very calm in this kind of situation:
“Stephanie is incredible, and she’s going to show that in this new role,” Calaway says. “She is level-headed, she sees the whole picture. Her steady, calm hand is exactly what is needed. There’s not a selfish bone in her body, but she’s all about business. She’s the right person for the job. I have 100% confidence about what Stephanie McMahon will do for the company.”
I guess you really were ‘The Prototype’! Congratulations @JohnCena and thank you for your 20 years with @WWE, we can’t wait to see what the next 20 years brings! #Hustle #Loyalty #Respect #CenaMonth https://t.co/r8oc7OPWw0
