Vince McMahon made headlines back in June 2022 for all the wrong reasons after it was revealed that he secretly paid $3 million in a hush-money scandal. Things only got worse for McMahon, as he was eventually forced to retire from the company. Of course, McMahon made his way back into the news later on after a couple of other allegations resurfaced. Now McMahon has declined to comment on the allegations and the investigation into the matter.

Vince McMahon was accused of sexual assault by former WWE referee Rita Chatterton, who accused him of the act back in 1992. Things did not end just there either as a lot of developments took place.

In November 2022, McMahon’s attorney received a letter from Chatterton, in which she demanded $11.75 million in compensation for the alleged assault after her allegations were brought back to the public’s attention in 2022. McMahon eventually reached multi-million dollar settlement with Chatterton.

In addition to that, Vince McMahon was also hit with a lawsuit by a spa manager. While speaking to Fox News, McMahon was asked about his sexual assault allegations. However, he refused to comment on them and focused elsewhere.

McMahon, 78, has been mostly out of the public eye over the last couple of years as he faced sexual assault allegations, a lawsuit that was later settled, and a federal investigation. When asked for comment by Fox News Digital, McMahon declined.

Vince McMahon is now open to having advertisements in WWE rings. Vince McMahon also unloaded 8,400,000 shares of Class A Common Stock recently while TKO Holdings publicly described him as a risk. Regardless, we’ll have to see what the investigations will bring to light once they are finished.
