Vince McMahon resigned from his position as the Executive Chairman of the TKO group, the parent company of the WWE, on 26th January 2024, amidst allegations from former WWE employee Janel Grant that included sex trafficking and sexual assault. On the contrary, the Chief Content Officer of the WWE went public for the first time and promised a safer environment at work. However, former SmackDown Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey who was notoriously outspoken during her 5-year tenure with WWE did not fail to express her view.

The UFC Strikeforce champion exposed in a single tweet why McMahon is never really gone from the company. She highlighted that one of his biggest enablers is longtime friend and former Executive Director Bruce Prichard as a reason he may not have truly split from the company. She wrote on her official ‘X’ account, “Bruce Prichard is basically Vince’s avatar, if he’s still around Vince still has a hand in the business. Vince was still running things through Bruce when he was “gone” before.”

Earlier in 2022 when McMahon retired from his position due to similar allegations, the organization announced that a committee would look into McMahon’s wrongdoings but it looks like it didn’t find enough to hold against him. Rousey could be hinting at this incident. However, McMahon was able to return due to his majority ownership in the company and engineered a merger between WWE and UFC, creating TKO Group Holdings under the ownership of Hollywood agency Endeavor.

Bruce Prichard is a former wrestler and presently serves as Executive Director of Raw and SmackDown. He is a long-term right-hand man of McMahon having originally joined the company in 1987. After a ten-year break, Prichard returned to WWE creative duties and was once again reunited with McMahon, staying firmly beside the 78-year-old after his initial resignation from WWE in 2022 following misconduct allegations.

At this point, it has been proven repeatedly that the former WWE CEO has way too much power within the company despite no longer having a decision-making role. There are always those who do the work for him and allow him to keep controlling the company from the outside. Now with Rousey’s tweet, it becomes even more obvious. However, his replacement chimed in for the first time.

‘Triple H’ on the allegations against McMahon

After Vince resigned from his position, Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque spoke about it publically for the first time in a press conference. The iconic wrestler and Chief Content Officer of the WWE told during the post-Royal Rumble presser that he had no prior knowledge about the lawsuit and neither did he want to get “bogged down” by the whole ordeal. Levesque is also McMahon’s son-in-law and has been working closely with him for a long time now.

‘Triple H’ also promised that he is trying to do everything in his power to ensure that employees working for the WWE will have a safe and secure environment to work within. This St. Petersburg conference in Florida must’ve been a difficult one since the lawsuit was a rather grim turn of events.

However, Levesque and his priorities regarding employees’ safety have become an even more important subject given the revelations made by Ronda Rousey. Perhaps, this makes her points even stronger. What do you think?
