Almost every WWE fan loves the WWE chairman for the incredible work that he has done for so long. But soon a time might come when the 76-year-old will have to retire.

In recent years, there has been a lot of talk in the pro wrestling world about Vince’s retirement and his successor.

Recently, the Chief Brand Officer of WWE and Vince McMahon’s daughter, Stephanie McMahon, opened up about her father’s WWE retirement plans.

In a conversation with Mike Piellucci of D Magazine, Stephanie said, “He [Vince McMahon] has said, I think, publicly that he will ‘die in the chair.'”

“We’ll see. Who knows? Life is long and unpredictable, but somehow, I don’t see him retiring anytime soon,” she added.

After Stephanie’s update on Vince McMahon’s retirement plans, it looks like Mr. McMahon has no plans of retiring soon. But if he retires, there will be several responsible candidates to succeed him- Stephanie McMahon will be one of them.

But for now, Vince McMahon is not only going strong outside the ring, but also inside the ring. At WrestleMania 38, the 76-year-old shocked everyone as he once again competed in a match.
